Travel to UC Riverside Student
27 km (17 mi) separates UC Riverside Student Recreation Center from Ontario International Airport (ONT) — normal for a city venue, and worth a line in the joining instructions rather than a shuttle contract.
At 6.9 km (4.3 mi) from the centre of Riverside, plan on transport between the hotels and the venue as a line in the budget rather than an afterthought.
Riverside has 11 venues mapped in total and a population of 323,757. The Riverside guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.
What fits in this room
3,168 is enough for a whole programme in a single room, which removes the hardest logistics problem an event has. Ask what the room looks like empty — the seated figure and the usable one are rarely the same.
- award ceremonies
A stage, a bowl of seats and a control room already in place.
- company all-hands
One room, everybody in it, nobody watching on a screen in an overflow space.
