Access and arrival
Allow half an hour each way to Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ), 20 km (12 mi) away, and rather more if your first session starts during the morning peak.
6.7 km (4.2 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.
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
1,036 is enough for a whole programme in a single room, which removes the hardest logistics problem an event has. Ask what the room looks like empty — the seated figure and the usable one are rarely the same.
- 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 1,036 covers most community and member meetings.
