This week we are looking at some of the most unusual venues for conferences and events that you can use in the UK!
Instead of using a conference centre or hotel there are a number of alternative options available if you want something different for your next event. Firstly there are a number of sporting venues from football stadiums to cricket grounds that have event space for hire and one example in Sheffield: iceSheffield which has event space suitable for product launches, exhibitions, conferences and dinners and also smaller break out rooms available which are all named to fit the ice theme, this venue is a very different space with the option for ice based team building activities including skating, ice hockey and curling as an addition to your event!
Another different venue option for your events is the National Coal Mining Museum, Wakefield, the museum has space for conferences, dinners and smaller meetings and even offers the option for delegates to travel underground to experience the mines!
The CastleGate is currently being renovated in Newcastle, the building used to be an Edwardian power station used to power electricity to the trams across Newcastle and Gateshead. The space is now being renovated to create a 500 seat auditorium and five floors of meeting space and the venue will include some original features from its time as a power station.
Peckforton Castle is a very unique venue for your next meeting or conference, with a variety of meeting rooms avaialble and the option to also hire the space exclusively, the castle can also offer medieval banquets and entertainment with overnight accommodation.
Another unusual venue we recently used for our client imove is the Electric Works venue in Sheffield which has its own helter skelter, if you really want something different to offer your delegates!
This week’s blog is based on an article from the Hospitality and Events North magazine, for further information about the magazine and all their articles visit: www.hospitalityandeventsnorth.com
