Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (DCA) is 5 km (3.1 mi) away — close enough that a delayed speaker can still make an afternoon slot.

The centre of Washington is 1.7 km (1.1 mi) away, which is a taxi rather than a walk and a reason to publish an arrival map.

Washington has 128 venues mapped in total and a population of 702,250. The Washington guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.

Formats this suits

Programme this as a theatre, because that is what it is. One track, one stage, an audience facing the same way. Catering and breakouts need a second space nearby.

  • 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.
