Business Social Event Venues
Business social events are where professionals come together in a social setting to network, build relationships, and discuss business matters in a less formal environment. These events are key in fostering connections, developing partnerships, and creating opportunities for collaboration outside the typical office setting whilst often having a bit of fun!

Drinks Receptions
Drinks or cocktail receptions allow guests to have a drink, often with food, and catch up with their clients or work colleagues in a relaxed, formal or informal environment. These can also take place at the end of a conference providing an opportunity for delegates to network. Head over to our Drinks Reception page where there are some great tips.
Social Activity Events
These types of events can be a company celebrating a milestone event or, perhaps, a more informal event such as an evening with drinks and an activity.
Venues with an activity
Following on from the above, we have seen a lot of interest in the past couple of years in venues that offer an activity on site, as well as food and drink. Some have meeting facilities so you can do the whole event in one place.
These venues are ideal for teams and groups looking to go out and have some fun, or for companies looking for an alternative way to entertain clients or colleagues – Crystal Maze, Crazy Golf, Bowling are just a few examples.
Bars and Restaurants
These venues are ideal for drinks receptions or parties on an exclusive basis or just hiring a private room or space in a bar or restaurant. However, they can also be used as quirky venues for a meeting or presentation if you want something a little different and more relaxed.
Team Building
Team Building activities are crucial for creating stronger bonds and having fun. There are so many different types of Team Building options available and we can help you choose the right one for your event. Head over to our Team Building page for more info.
Summer Party
Often held outdoors or at least having some outdoor space, taking advantage of the hopefully (!) nice weather. Summer parties provide the opportunity to have some fun with colleagues or clients in a relaxed atmosphere. Our Summer Party page has some great tips to get you started.
Christmas Party
A Christmas Party is the perfect way to thank employees for their work during the year. We can book your Christmas Party, whatever your numbers. Take a look at our Christmas Party page for more information.
Golf Days
Hosting a corporate golf event can be a fantastic way to promote and market your company, all while enjoying a relaxed and fun atmosphere. Golf Days are ideal for rewarding and motivating your staff or for entertaining key clients whilst building relationships.
Corporate Hospitality
As a marketing tool, corporate hospitality is a great way of networking with current and potential clients, taking the opportunity to step away from the office and be in a more relaxed environment. Good relationships with a client can increase the chances of earning repeat business.
And don’t just think of corporate hospitality for your clients – it is also a great way of thanking your staff and showing your appreciation for all that they bring to the company.
