Getting there
McGhee Tyson Airport (TYS) is 7 km (4.3 mi) away — close enough that a delayed speaker can still make an afternoon slot.
At 24 km (15 mi) from the centre of Knoxville, plan on transport between the hotels and the venue as a line in the budget rather than an afterthought.
Knoxville has 33 venues mapped in total and a population of 198,722. The Knoxville guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.
Formats this suits
3,000 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.
