Travel to Senator Nat G. Kiefer

20 km (12 mi) separates Senator Nat G. Kiefer University of New Orleans Lakefront Arena from Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport (MSY) — normal for a city venue, and worth a line in the joining instructions rather than a shuttle contract.

8.7 km (5.4 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.

New Orleans has 72 venues mapped in total and a population of 362,701. The New Orleans guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.

What fits in this room

Anything at this scale is a one-room event. It is the 4th largest arena or stadium mapped in New Orleans, and like all of them it solves the plenary and none of the rest of the programme.

  • award ceremonies

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

  • festivals

    An audience of 8,933 is festival scale, not conference scale.

  • company all-hands

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