Keeping on top of whats happening in the world of hospitality and events can be daunting. It's so far reaching and it might feel hard to keep up, so here is a snap shot of the things I read to help in May 2021.
This one should be particularly relevant for this year! BMA House is one of the most sought after corporate summer party venues London has to offer thanks to their dual choice of outside spaces and central location. In this piece they share their best ideas for making the most of the late summer celebrations.
This is particularly apt with the sector now in recovery and budgets lower than usual to make up for it. Congress Centre is a highly-affordable conference venue in central London with an impressively high level of AV facilities and amenities. In this blog they share some ways that your choice of venue can be a great place to do some cost saving on your next event.
How your choice of venue could save you money when planning an event
Another aptly timed choice! There's still plenty of time to get planning this year's summer party and the HAC is here to help with this ultimate guide. They're one of the most popular outdoor summer party venues London has to offer and for good reason, since they also offer the City's largest private garden space (around 5 acres, if you were wondering!).
Focusing more on the catering side for a second - most of know organic is supposed to be better for you, but do you actually know why? In this blog, contract catering company Lexington Catering breaks down what makes a food 'organic', why it isn't always better, and the times when it is.
This one is aimed more at other venues rather than event planners, but it's an interesting read all the same. In normal times, Central Hall Westminster is primarily known for being the largest conference venue Westminster has to offer, but it's had it's fair share of big and small screen appearances over the years.
I loved the way they break down their best tips and tricks for making your filming location appealing and suitable for productions time after time.
This is a really helpful round up of all those exciting rule changes that happened on the 17th May, as events were one of the sectors that was impacted most by them. Namely, that they could happen again with much more significant crowds!
10-11 Carlton House Terrace are best known as one of the most prestigious wedding venues London offers, but they also get a lot of business events and private parties. They were all over the new rules when they were announced and I found their break down of everything incredibly helpful.
