Getting there
Greater Moncton International Airport (YQM) sits 8 km (5 mi) out, so a same-day return is realistic for anyone flying in for one session.
The centre of Moncton is 1.5 km (0.9 mi) away, which is a taxi rather than a walk and a reason to publish an arrival map.
Moncton has 22 venues mapped in total and a population of 79,470. The Moncton guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.
Formats this suits
A fixed-seat house suits a single-track programme: keynotes, panels, award ceremonies and film. It does not suit a trade floor, banqueting or anything that needs the seats to move, so pair it with a nearby function room if you need both.
- 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.
