Access and arrival

Allow half an hour each way to Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ), 19 km (12 mi) away, and rather more if your first session starts during the morning peak.

5.1 km (3.2 mi) out from the middle of Toronto — close enough to book a downtown hotel block, far enough that people will expect transport laid on after dark.

Toronto has 254 venues mapped in total and a population of 2,794,356. The Toronto guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.

The kind of event it takes

At 1,731 seats this takes a full conference in one room. Confirm what the space looks like with the seating cleared, because that is the version most conferences actually book.

  • networking mixers

    An independent space with its own character, which a mixer benefits from more than a conference does.

  • fundraisers and galas

    A room with a personality is worth more at a gala than square footage is.

  • community meetings

    Room for 1,731 covers most community and member meetings.
