How attendees reach it

17 km (11 mi) separates Langston Hughes Performing Arts Center from Seattle–Tacoma International Airport (SEA) — normal for a city venue, and worth a line in the joining instructions rather than a shuttle contract.

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

Seattle has 119 venues mapped in total and a population of 780,995. The Seattle guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.

Programming it

The seats do not move, which is the whole trade. You get sightlines, acoustics and a lighting rig you would otherwise have to rent, and you give up the ability to put tables in the room. Langston Hughes Performing Arts Center is 5th of 27 such houses mapped in Seattle.

  • 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.
