What EMPAC is
It sits in Troy, right in the centre of Troy.
No seated capacity is published. The recorded footprint is 220,000 sq ft, which is the outline of the building rather than usable exhibition space, so treat it as an upper bound and ask the venue for a room-by-room sheet.

Getting there
Albany International Airport (ALB) is 10 km (6.2 mi) out, a standard transfer of twenty to forty minutes outside rush hour.
It is central, so a hotel block within walking distance is realistic and you can skip a shuttle entirely.
Troy has 17 venues mapped in total and a population of 51,065. The Troy guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.
Formats this suits
Programme this as a theatre, because that is what it is. One track, one stage, an audience facing the same way. Catering and breakouts need a second space nearby.
- award ceremonies
Fixed seating, sightlines and a lighting rig are the hard parts, and they are already here.
- product launches
A single-track room with a real stage is the right shape for a launch.
- multi-track conferences
Works as a plenary house with breakouts booked elsewhere in the city.
