How attendees reach it
At 32 km (20 mi), Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR) makes arrival day a travel day. Open registration the evening before if you can.
The centre of Edison is 4.5 km (2.8 mi) away, which is a taxi rather than a walk and a reason to publish an arrival map.
Edison has 18 venues mapped in total and a population of 102,548. The Edison guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.
Programming it
At 41,500 the seating bowl is the point and the floor is the room you are actually booking. Plan the day around one big moment here and put everything that needs a smaller room in a second building.
- award ceremonies
A stage, a bowl of seats and a control room already in place.
- festivals
An audience of 41,500 is festival scale, not conference scale.
- company all-hands
One room, everybody in it, nobody watching on a screen in an overflow space.
