How attendees reach it

Buffalo Niagara International Airport (BUF) is 14 km (8.7 mi) out, a standard transfer of twenty to forty minutes outside rush hour.

Being 1.3 km (0.8 mi) from the middle of Buffalo means attendees can walk from their hotel, which removes the single most complained-about line in most event budgets.

Buffalo has 36 venues mapped in total and a population of 276,617. The Buffalo guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.

Programming it

Anything at this scale is a one-room event. It is the 3rd largest arena or stadium mapped in Buffalo, 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 19,070 is festival scale, not conference scale.

  • company all-hands

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