How attendees reach it

10 km (6.2 mi) separates Icardo Center from Meadows Field Airport (BFL) — normal for a city venue, and worth a line in the joining instructions rather than a shuttle contract.

8.1 km (5 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.

Bakersfield has 17 venues mapped in total and a population of 417,468. The Bakersfield guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.

Programming it

At 3,800 seats this takes a full conference in one room. Confirm what the space looks like with the seating cleared, because that is the version most conferences actually book.

  • award ceremonies

    A stage, a bowl of seats and a control room already in place.

  • company all-hands

    One room, everybody in it, nobody watching on a screen in an overflow space.
