Getting there

11 km (6.8 mi) separates Rio Theatre from Vancouver International Airport (YVR) — normal for a city venue, and worth a line in the joining instructions rather than a shuttle contract.

The centre of Vancouver is 3.8 km (2.4 mi) away, which is a taxi rather than a walk and a reason to publish an arrival map.

Vancouver has 94 venues mapped in total and a population of 662,248. The Vancouver guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.

Formats this suits

Think of it as one room in a bigger plan: a training day, a members' evening, a committee that needs to be in the same place. It is 17th of 94 venues mapped in Vancouver.

  • networking mixers

    An independent space with its own character, which a mixer benefits from more than a conference does.

  • fundraisers and galas

    A room with a personality is worth more at a gala than square footage is.

  • community meetings

    Room for 420 covers most community and member meetings.
