A quick pitstop while venue hunting down South… and what a find! 🏨✨

We stopped off to check out the brand new Hilton Hotel in Woking - a Surrey stay just 20 minutes from London by train and within walking distance of Woking station. Perfectly positioned at Victoria Square Mall right in the heart of the city centre, it’s a brilliant and convenient base for delegates 🚂

The large conference facilities are very impressive and tick all the right boxes for corporate events, conferences and everything in between 🎯 And after a long day of meetings? Head up to the rooftop bar on the 22nd floor for stunning views across the city 🍸

Don’t forget - if you’re looking for a venue for your next event, our venue finding service is completely free, so let us do the legwork for you!

We’re back with Part 2 from our Lille venue hunt 🇫🇷… and it just keeps getting better!

In our last post, we shared details of the three fantastic conference venues we visited. Whilst in Lille we also visited five hotels – all within easy walking distance of the city centre.

But it wasn’t all business… 🧇

We were treated to a truly special lunch at the iconic Méert, one of Lille’s most beloved institutions. The dining room is absolutely gorgeous – think elegant, intimate and quintessentially French. And then came the highlight: heading down to their cellar to learn how to make their legendary traditional waffles. One of those unique experiences that reminds you just how much a destination has to offer beyond the conference room ✨

The evening ended perfectly with a cosy Raclette dinner at Grand Hôtel Bellevue - Grand Place, Lille. 🧀 – the ideal way to wind down after a full day of exploring.

A huge thank you to Paul from Amplified Hotels and Marion and Claire from Wiziu Hotels for showing us the very best of Lille. Your knowledge, warmth and hospitality made this such a memorable trip 💙

Lille truly is a gem of a European conference destination - and we’re already excited to start matching it to the right client briefs!

We’ve been on the road again.. this time venue hunting in Lille, France 🇫🇷 & exploring large conference venues in this fantastic European city.

Just 1 hour 20 minutes on the Eurostar and you arrive right into the heart of Lille, making it incredibly accessible for international delegates. From the moment you step out of the station, everything is within walking distance – and the city itself is absolutely beautiful.

First stop: Lille Grand Palais
An impressive venue perfect for the largest of large conferences, exhibitions and corporate gatherings. The scale and flexibility of the space immediately gets the ideas flowing for major international events.

We also visited the stunning 5⭐ Hôtel Barrière Lille, complete with its own casino on site. A fantastic option for conferences looking for integrated accommodation, meeting space and evening entertainment all under one roof.

And finally Cité des Echanges – just a 10-minute drive from the city centre. Set within a peaceful park setting, this light, bright and contemporary conference centre offers a refreshing environment for large meetings and corporate events.

Such a pretty, vibrant city and a brilliant option for a European conference destination.

Flashback to last week… when “days off” still involve a little venue spotting 👀✨

While visiting the incredible National Railway Museum in York with my two little daughters, I couldn’t resist popping into Station Hall to take a look at the potential of its large dinner space… because in events, the inspiration (and work!) never really stops 🚂

Station Hall has just undergone an extensive refurbishment, and the transformation is seriously impressive. Set within the museum’s huge former steam locomotive depot, the scale of the space immediately sparks ideas for gala dinners, awards evenings and large-scale corporate events surrounded by true British engineering history.

Back in 1975, the National Railway Museum opened its doors, becoming the very first national museum outside London. The former depot proved to be the perfect home, and it was an immediate success with the public. Today, it remains one of Britain’s busiest museums and is perhaps the most popular railway museum in the world 🌍

There’s something special about hosting events in spaces that already tell a story, and Station Hall certainly has plenty to tell.

Always exploring. Always planning. Even on family days out 💙

A little throwback to sunnier times ☀️🌿

As we start the search for a new location for a clients’ Summer Garden Party this year, we’ve just been sent the photos from last year’s event & we had to share them!😍

📍Hosted at the stunning Loseley Park in Surrey, this historic house and its immaculate gardens provided the perfect backdrop for a truly special summer celebration. With a large marquee positioned in front of the house, guests enjoyed the best of both worlds - grand surroundings, open green space, and a bespoke event build designed for entertaining in style 🥂

From elegant garden views to a beautifully curated event space, it was one of those days that reminds us why outdoor summer events are so magical✨

Now, with those memories fresh in mind, the hunt begins for this year’s Summer Garden Party venue… 🌎🗺️ Watch this space!

Exploring the hidden gems of the in our hometown of 📍First stop: Kelham Island Museum, located uniquely between the currents of the Sheffield's River Don 🌊.

This small man-made island was initially built in the 12th century as a mill race, although it has served many different functions since then!

From powering the Lords of the Manor, the city, the home of local businesses, to a museum, their diverse, new, exciting venue space offered the ideal location for a corporate event in the spring. Set back from the noise in a unique island location, but only minutes away from Sheffield city centre.
