Getting there
Allow half an hour each way to John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK), 23 km (14 mi) away, and rather more if your first session starts during the morning peak.
This is an out-of-centre venue — 6.9 km (4.3 mi) from the middle of New York City — which usually buys you parking and load-in access in exchange for a transport plan.
New York City has 509 venues mapped in total and a population of 8,478,072. The New York City guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.
Formats this suits
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. Peter Jay Sharp Theater is 40th of 148 such houses mapped in New York City.
- 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.
