Getting there
24 km (15 mi) separates The Yardbird Suite from Edmonton International Airport (YEG) — normal for a city venue, and worth a line in the joining instructions rather than a shuttle contract.
The centre of Edmonton is 3.6 km (2.2 mi) away, which is a taxi rather than a walk and a reason to publish an arrival map.
Edmonton has 68 venues mapped in total and a population of 1,010,899. The Edmonton guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.
Formats this suits
Smaller spaces are where most events actually happen, and The Yardbird Suite is one of them. A single-track day works; a programme with a trade floor attached does not.
- networking mixers
An independent space with its own character, which a mixer benefits from more than a conference does.
- fundraisers and galas
A room with a personality is worth more at a gala than square footage is.
