How attendees reach it

15 km (9.3 mi) separates Matthew Knight Arena from Eugene Airport (EUG) — normal for a city venue, and worth a line in the joining instructions rather than a shuttle contract.

1.8 km (1.1 mi) out from the middle of Eugene — close enough to book a downtown hotel block, far enough that people will expect transport laid on after dark.

Eugene has 37 venues mapped in total and a population of 178,786. The Eugene 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 2nd largest arena or stadium mapped in Eugene, 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 12,364 is festival scale, not conference scale.

  • company all-hands

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