Getting there
Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ) is 20 km (12 mi) out, a standard transfer of twenty to forty minutes outside rush hour.
At 6 km (3.7 mi) from the centre of Toronto, plan on transport between the hotels and the venue as a line in the budget rather than an afterthought.
Toronto has 254 venues mapped in total and a population of 2,794,356. The Toronto guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.
Formats this suits
A fixed-seat house suits a single-track programme: keynotes, panels, award ceremonies and film. It does not suit a trade floor, banqueting or anything that needs the seats to move, so pair it with a nearby function room if you need both.
- 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.
