What fits in this room
Anything at this scale is a one-room event. It is the 1st largest arena or stadium mapped in New Orleans, 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 75,167 is festival scale, not conference scale.
- company all-hands
One room, everybody in it, nobody watching on a screen in an overflow space.
