Getting there
19 km (12 mi) separates Ralph Wilson Stadium from Buffalo Niagara International Airport (BUF) — normal for a city venue, and worth a line in the joining instructions rather than a shuttle contract.
This is an out-of-centre venue — 15 km (9.1 mi) from the middle of Buffalo — which usually buys you parking and load-in access in exchange for a transport plan.
Buffalo has 36 venues mapped in total and a population of 276,617. The Buffalo guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.
Formats this suits

- award ceremonies
A stage, a bowl of seats and a control room already in place.
- festivals
An audience of 71,608 is festival scale, not conference scale.
- company all-hands
One room, everybody in it, nobody watching on a screen in an overflow space.
