What fits in this room
At 12,829 the seating bowl is the point and the floor is the room you are actually booking. Plan the day around one big moment here and put everything that needs a smaller room in a second building.
- award ceremonies
A stage, a bowl of seats and a control room already in place.
- festivals
An audience of 12,829 is festival scale, not conference scale.
- company all-hands
One room, everybody in it, nobody watching on a screen in an overflow space.
