Travel to Sleeman Centre
52 km (32 mi) to Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ) is far enough to change the shape of the programme: a first morning session will lose the people who flew in that day.
It is central, so a hotel block within walking distance is realistic and you can skip a shuttle entirely.
The published number for the venue is +1-519-822-4900.
Guelph has 15 venues mapped in total and a population of 143,740. The Guelph guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.
