How attendees reach it
Allow half an hour each way to Tucson International Airport (TUS), 12 km (7.5 mi) away, and rather more if your first session starts during the morning peak.
At 4.5 km (2.8 mi) from the city centre it is a short ride from downtown hotels rather than a walk.
Tucson has 40 venues mapped in total and a population of 554,013. The Tucson guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.
Programming it
An exhibition building is bought by the square foot, not the seat. What decides whether your show fits is column spacing, ceiling height and how many trucks can be on the dock at once, so ask Tucson Convention Center for the hall sheet rather than a capacity number.
- trade shows and exhibitions
Built as a floor rather than a seating plan, which is what an exhibition needs.
- multi-track conferences
The same hall subdivides into tracks once the booths come out.
- career fairs
A booth grid and a single controlled entrance is the whole requirement.
