A venue chosen for the way you will use it
The right setting has to support the event, as well as look the part.
A leadership meeting needs a different environment from a conference or incentive programme. We begin with your objectives, audience, dates, budget and preferred destination, then research venues against those requirements.
The programme gives the search its context. Meeting spaces, guest accommodation and dining may need to work together, as they did for our C-suite roundtable in Munich. For an incentive, the venue may also be central to the experience of the destination.
From research to contracting
We manage the stages between identifying a possible venue and securing the setting for your event.
Our service covers research and recommendations, site inspections, selection, negotiation and contracting. We negotiate on your behalf, with your objectives and budget informing the discussions.
Venue decisions also connect to the wider event plan. Production requirements and the shape of the programme help establish what the setting needs to accommodate. Bringing these considerations into the search gives the choice a practical foundation.
Different briefs, different settings
Our work includes focused city meetings and programmes that move between contrasting locations.
In Munich, we sourced and contracted the venue for a leadership roundtable at the Andaz. The programme combined meeting spaces, accommodation and a dining experience at 1804 Restaurant, with opportunities for informal networking around the structured sessions.
For an Irish executive incentive, Kilkea Castle and The Shelbourne provided a countryside and city pairing. The event design brought each setting into the programme through activities, dining and time together.
Before the venue search
A clear brief helps us understand what the setting needs to make possible.
Can you source venues outside Ireland?
Yes. Our venue sourcing, site selection and contracting service covers Ireland and international destinations. Our published work includes venue sourcing and contracting for programmes in Munich and Barcelona.
Do you handle site inspections and contracting?
Yes. The service covers initial research and recommendations through to site inspections, selection, negotiation and contracting.
What information is useful for a venue brief?
Share the event format, objectives, preferred dates and location, audience and budget. If venue sourcing forms part of a wider programme, include that context in your enquiry too.
