Access and arrival
John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) is 22 km (14 mi) out, a standard transfer of twenty to forty minutes outside rush hour.
6.4 km (4 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.
New York City has 509 venues mapped in total and a population of 8,478,072. The New York City guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.
The kind of event it takes
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.

A Jazz at Lincoln Center programme at 240 activated attendees — a plausible programme at a venue of this kind in New York City — prices like this. Nothing is charged for the first 50, and nothing at all is charged past 1,000.
