2.3 km (1.4 mi) out from the middle of Hayward — close enough to book a downtown hotel block, far enough that people will expect transport laid on after dark.

Programming it
The seats do not move, which is the whole trade. You get sightlines, acoustics and a lighting rig you would otherwise have to rent, and you give up the ability to put tables in the room. University Theatre is 1st of 2 such houses mapped in Hayward.
- 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.
