be extremely accommodating in terms of
its highly supportive staff, (nothing is too
much trouble) the facilities are excellent
with efficient in house catering, security,
rigging and on-site parking for our 200

The venue is easy to get to and there are
plenty of hotels within walking distance.

are a pleasure to work with and have
complete knowledge and experience of our
requirements not only from an organiser’s
point of view but also most accommodating
to our stand builders and other supporting
contractors. A professional and
understanding service always received
