How attendees reach it
11 km (6.8 mi) separates Guthrie Theater from Minneapolis–Saint Paul International Airport (MSP) — normal for a city venue, and worth a line in the joining instructions rather than a shuttle contract.
Being 0.7 km (0.4 mi) from the middle of Minneapolis means attendees can walk from their hotel, which removes the single most complained-about line in most event budgets.
The published number for the venue is +1 612 377 2224.
Minneapolis has 92 venues mapped in total and a population of 428,579. The Minneapolis guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.
Programming it
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.
What event67 costs at this capacity
A Guthrie Theater programme at 240 activated attendees — a plausible programme at a venue of this kind in Minneapolis — prices like this. Nothing is charged for the first 50, and nothing at all is charged past 1,000.
