How attendees reach it
6 km (3.7 mi) to State College Regional Airport (SCE). At that distance the transfer is not a planning problem, which is rarer than it sounds.
A central address is worth more than it looks: no shuttle, no parking plan, and evening sessions that people actually stay for.
State College has 37 venues mapped in total and a population of 41,228. The State College guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.
Programming it
A room for 6,846 is a plenary space in practice, whatever it is classified as. It ranks 4th among the 37 venues mapped in State College.
- award ceremonies
A stage, a bowl of seats and a control room already in place.
- company all-hands
One room, everybody in it, nobody watching on a screen in an overflow space.
