What makes it 70% Solo-Friendly: A solo visitor can use free Wi-Fi, attend public talks or comedy gigs and relax in spacious foyers, but only when events run, so suitability is good but not outstanding.
Why 2-3 hours visit duration is ideal for solo trip: A solo visitor can join a talk, grab coffee, and network comfortably within this time.

That’s my only positive right now from my brief visit.

Attended a 2 day event this weekend and great room and stage. Sound is fab & staff were very polite. I'm very hopeful that next year the food provisions will be significantly increased to process 1800 of us in sufficient time! Thank you team!
August brings Fringe shows at the EICC—book tickets early. February’s Six Nations Fan Zone sells out fast. Weekday mornings year-round are quiet for work or study.
