Access and arrival
At 86 km (53 mi), Logan International Airport (BOS) makes arrival day a travel day. Open registration the evening before if you can.
This is an out-of-centre venue — 16 km (9.7 mi) from the middle of Portsmouth — which usually buys you parking and load-in access in exchange for a transport plan.
Portsmouth has 21 venues mapped in total and a population of 22,938. The Portsmouth guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.
The kind of event it takes
The seats do not move, which is the whole trade. You get sightlines, acoustics and a lighting rig you would otherwise have to rent, and you give up the ability to put tables in the room. Paul Creative Arts Center is 3rd of 5 such houses mapped in Portsmouth.
- 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.
