Demographics
EXCELLENT DEMOGRAPHICS & ACCESSIBILITY
No matter what your event planning needs may entail, the demographics
of Hartford, Connecticut’s Capital City, will allow you to virtually
guarantee attendance, if not increase it significantly.
Population
More than 23 million people live within a two and a half-hour drive
from Hartford. No where in the United States are you closer to as many
people, except for Manhattan where an additional 1 million people reside
within the same driving radius. But no matter where your attendees come
from they'll find getting to the Connecticut Convention Center
convenient and hassle-free.
Drive
By car, Hartford is ideally located where Interstates 84 and 91
intersect, at the gateway to New England. Just 30 minutes north and
south of Hartford, the Interstate system connects you to the
Massachusetts Turnpike (Interstate 90) and the New York Thruway
(Interstate 95).
Fly
If you're flying, the newly expanded Bradley International Airport is
only 10 minutes from Hartford and serves 19 commercial carriers and
nearly 300 national and international flights daily, including direct
flights to Los Angeles, Denver and Amsterdam.
Train
Amtrak train service and non-stop, interstate bus lines to every major
northeast city operate in and out of Union Station in downtown
Hartford.
