Getting there
South Bend Regional Airport (SBN) is 7 km (4.3 mi) away — close enough that a delayed speaker can still make an afternoon slot.

South Bend has 30 venues mapped in total and a population of 103,713. The South Bend guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.

A stage, a bowl of seats and a control room already in place.
- festivals
An audience of 80,795 is festival scale, not conference scale.
- company all-hands
One room, everybody in it, nobody watching on a screen in an overflow space.
