Getting there

65 km (40 mi) to Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport (DTW) is far enough to change the shape of the programme: a first morning session will lose the people who flew in that day.

At 4.6 km (2.9 mi) from the city centre it is a short ride from downtown hotels rather than a walk.

Toledo has 22 venues mapped in total and a population of 265,638. The Toledo guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.

Formats this suits

7,014 is enough for a whole programme in a single room, which removes the hardest logistics problem an event has. Ask what the room looks like empty — the seated figure and the usable one are rarely the same.

  • award ceremonies

    A stage, a bowl of seats and a control room already in place.

  • company all-hands

    One room, everybody in it, nobody watching on a screen in an overflow space.
