Getting there
Minneapolis–Saint Paul International Airport (MSP) sits 3 km (1.9 mi) out, so a same-day return is realistic for anyone flying in for one session.
This is an out-of-centre venue — 11 km (6.5 mi) from the middle of Minneapolis — which usually buys you parking and load-in access in exchange for a transport plan.
Minneapolis has 92 venues mapped in total and a population of 428,579. The Minneapolis guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.
Formats this suits

A stage, a bowl of seats and a control room already in place.

One room, everybody in it, nobody watching on a screen in an overflow space.
