Getting there
Frederick Douglass Greater Rochester International Airport (ROC) is 4 km (2.5 mi) away — close enough that a delayed speaker can still make an afternoon slot.
9.1 km (5.7 mi) from the centre puts this outside comfortable walking range of any hotel district, so the shuttle is part of the event rather than an extra.
Rochester has 32 venues mapped in total and a population of 207,282. The Rochester guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.
Formats this suits

- award ceremonies
A stage, a bowl of seats and a control room already in place.
- company all-hands
