Venue Failures/Problems

  • What is considered a failure?
  • Whom do we notify?
  • Do we have a backup plan?

Types of venue

  • Room/Theatre
    • Is it an equipment failure that can be rectified?
    • Are spare Rooms/Theatres available?
      • Requirements of spare Rooms/Theatres should be similar to the original (they're unlikely to be as good, of course, otherwise we would be using that room to begin with)
      • This is likely to be especially problematic for keynotes (and any other sessions with special requirements); there may not be another suitable theatre nearby
    • See also SpeakerProbs
  • Whole conference site (or enough that the rest cannot be safely used)
  • Evening
  • Partners' program item
    • If a fair-weather item falls through, the rain option can be substituted
    • Otherwise?
