Access and arrival
Logan International Airport (BOS) is 5 km (3.1 mi) away — close enough that a delayed speaker can still make an afternoon slot.
It is central, so a hotel block within walking distance is realistic and you can skip a shuttle entirely.
Boston has 182 venues mapped in total and a population of 673,458. The Boston guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.
The kind of event it takes
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. Wilbur Theatre is 44th of 60 such houses mapped in Boston.
- 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.
The app bill, at this size
Take 240 people through the door in Wilbur Theatre — a plausible programme at a venue of this kind in Boston. The first 50 activated attendees are free on every event, so only the rest are billed, and the total stops moving at 1,000 however many more turn up.

- billable, after the first 50 are free
- 190billable, after the first 50 are free

You are billed for people, not for the room, so this figure does not change if you move the event down the road. event67 has no floor-plan or booking product — the venue handles the space, the app handles the people in it.
