Getting there
John Glenn Columbus International Airport (CMH) is 12 km (7.5 mi) out, a standard transfer of twenty to forty minutes outside rush hour.
6.2 km (3.9 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.
Columbus has 70 venues mapped in total and a population of 933,263. The Columbus guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.
Formats this suits
Anything at this scale is a one-room event. It is the 7th largest arena or stadium mapped in Columbus, and like all of them it solves the plenary and none of the rest of the programme.
- award ceremonies
A stage, a bowl of seats and a control room already in place.
- festivals
An audience of 10,000 is festival scale, not conference scale.
- company all-hands
One room, everybody in it, nobody watching on a screen in an overflow space.
