Access and arrival
22 km (14 mi) separates The Crucible from San Francisco International Airport (SFO) — normal for a city venue, and worth a line in the joining instructions rather than a shuttle contract.
1.7 km (1.1 mi) out from the middle of Oakland — close enough to book a downtown hotel block, far enough that people will expect transport laid on after dark.
The published number for the venue is +1-510-444-0919.
Oakland has 58 venues mapped in total and a population of 443,554. The Oakland guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.
The kind of event it takes
A fixed-seat house suits a single-track programme: keynotes, panels, award ceremonies and film. It does not suit a trade floor, banqueting or anything that needs the seats to move, so pair it with a nearby function room if you need both.
- award ceremonies
Fixed seating, sightlines and a lighting rig are the hard parts, and they are already here.
- product launches
A single-track room with a real stage is the right shape for a launch.
- multi-track conferences
Works as a plenary house with breakouts booked elsewhere in the city.
