Getting there
Allow half an hour each way to San Francisco International Airport (SFO), 18 km (11 mi) away, and rather more if your first session starts during the morning peak.
It is central, so a hotel block within walking distance is realistic and you can skip a shuttle entirely.
San Francisco has 161 venues mapped in total and a population of 827,526. The San Francisco guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.
Formats this suits
Programme this as a theatre, because that is what it is. One track, one stage, an audience facing the same way and 1,687 of them. Catering and breakouts need a second space nearby.
- 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.
