Getting there
Allow half an hour each way to Louisville International Airport (SDF), 9 km (5.6 mi) away, and rather more if your first session starts during the morning peak.
It is central, so a hotel block within walking distance is realistic and you can skip a shuttle entirely.
Louisville has 58 venues mapped in total and a population of 640,796. The Louisville 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 2nd largest arena or stadium mapped in Louisville, 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 22,090 is festival scale, not conference scale.
- company all-hands
One room, everybody in it, nobody watching on a screen in an overflow space.
