Travel to XPW Arena
9 km (5.6 mi) separates XPW Arena from Philadelphia International Airport (PHL) — normal for a city venue, and worth a line in the joining instructions rather than a shuttle contract.
At 4.1 km (2.5 mi) from the city centre it is a short ride from downtown hotels rather than a walk.
Philadelphia has 132 venues mapped in total and a population of 1,573,916. The Philadelphia guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.
What fits in this room
1,300 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.
- 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.
- community meetings
Room for 1,300 covers most community and member meetings.
