The kind of event it takes
Anything at this scale is a one-room event. It is the 1st largest arena or stadium mapped in Huntington, 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 38,227 is festival scale, not conference scale.
- company all-hands
One room, everybody in it, nobody watching on a screen in an overflow space.
