Access and arrival

5 km (3.1 mi) to San Diego International Airport (SAN). 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.

San Diego has 70 venues mapped in total and a population of 1,404,452. The San Diego guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.

The kind of event it takes

An exhibition building is bought by the square foot, not the seat. What decides whether your show fits is column spacing, ceiling height and how many trucks can be on the dock at once, so ask San Diego Convention Center for the hall sheet rather than a capacity number.
