Travel to Neyland Stadium
Allow half an hour each way to McGhee Tyson Airport (TYS), 17 km (11 mi) away, and rather more if your first session starts during the morning peak.
Being 0.7 km (0.4 mi) from the middle of Knoxville means attendees can walk from their hotel, which removes the single most complained-about line in most event budgets.
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.
What fits in this room
Anything at this scale is a one-room event. It is the 1st largest arena or stadium mapped in Knoxville, 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 102,455 is festival scale, not conference scale.
- company all-hands
One room, everybody in it, nobody watching on a screen in an overflow space.
