Getting there
13 km (8.1 mi) separates The Met Philadelphia from Philadelphia International Airport (PHL) — normal for a city venue, and worth a line in the joining instructions rather than a shuttle contract.
The centre of Philadelphia is 2 km (1.2 mi) away, which is a taxi rather than a walk and a reason to publish an arrival map.
Philadelphia has 132 venues mapped in total and a population of 1,573,916. The Philadelphia guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.
Formats this suits
Programme this as a theatre, because that is what it is. One track, one stage, an audience facing the same way and 3,500 of them. Catering and breakouts need a second space nearby.
- 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.
