How attendees reach it

Allow half an hour each way to Piedmont Triad International Airport (GSO), 29 km (18 mi) away, and rather more if your first session starts during the morning peak.

The centre of Winston-Salem is 3.3 km (2.1 mi) away, which is a taxi rather than a walk and a reason to publish an arrival map.

Winston-Salem has 31 venues mapped in total and a population of 255,769. The Winston-Salem guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.

Programming it

A room this size is a plenary and nothing else. Keynotes, awards and general sessions work; the breakouts, the exhibition and the catering all have to happen somewhere else, so the venue is really the anchor of a campus rather than the whole event.

  • award ceremonies

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

  • festivals

    An audience of 14,665 is festival scale, not conference scale.

  • company all-hands

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