Travel to Roebuck Stadium
68 km (42 mi) to Norfolk International Airport (ORF) is far enough to change the shape of the programme: a first morning session will lose the people who flew in that day.
60 km (37 mi) from the centre puts this outside comfortable walking range of any hotel district, so the shuttle is part of the event rather than an extra.
Chesapeake has 8 venues mapped in total and a population of 254,997. The Chesapeake guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.
What fits in this room
At 5,000 seats this takes a full conference in one room. Confirm what the space looks like with the seating cleared, because that is the version most conferences actually book.
- 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.
