Getting there
At 78 km (48 mi), John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) makes arrival day a travel day. Open registration the evening before if you can.
1.6 km (1 mi) out from the middle of Bridgeport — close enough to book a downtown hotel block, far enough that people will expect transport laid on after dark.
Bridgeport has 5 venues mapped in total and a population of 151,599. The Bridgeport 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 1st largest arena or stadium mapped in Bridgeport, 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 12,000 is festival scale, not conference scale.
- company all-hands
One room, everybody in it, nobody watching on a screen in an overflow space.
