2. Event Conference Planning

If you want more help or guidance, you’re welcome to come in and sit down with one of our team. You can go through all your details and we can help you create the event so you get the most from our space, including how our space can work for your conference and the best catering options (allowing for dietary and religious options). In short, we can help you decide on all the details of your day.

This allows you to get on with your more pressing tasks such as chasing speakers and organising your team. Speak to us to organise your show-round. 

 

 

 

3. Conference Delegate Care

Once you are all confirmed and the day is planned, we can help you with all the finicky bits, and ensure nothing gets missed.

  • Save time: Avoid having to answer the same questions over and over again with our Delegate Welcome Pack, which includes information on parking, local transport, how to find us, disabled access and the all-important Wi-Fi information.
  • Avoid traipsing across the city centre with heavy suitcases and endless tote bags in tow: have your give-aways and marketing materials delivered straight to our venue ready for the day.
  • Keep delegates happy: tell us the names of your delegates and their dietary requirements and we can label their separate lunch box, so that no-one is disappointed come lunch time.
