Earlier this month Story planned and delivered the London Summer Event Show which is now in it’s ninth edition. Banking Hall was the backdrop to this year’s exhibition which featured 150 exhibitiors! The show was well attended with over 900 visitors which was a 29% increase on the LSES 22 exhibition!
The Show also included a variety of summer inspired seminars and workshops hosted by various industry experts. Our sister company Venue Search London hosted an inspiring seminar all about London’s new venue openings for summer 2023. Other fascinating seminars included topics that reflected the industry’s latest trends. Topics discussed included ‘Best Sustainability Tips for Real Events’ and ‘Master the Art of Organising a Memorable Summer Event!’
Workshops included a variety of interactive activities such as a Contemporary Spring Wreath Workshop with Gilded Bee, Summer Cocktail Masterclasses with Mix & match, Build Your Own Grazing Platter with Berry and Brie and so many more. The programme was set to ignite attendee’s creativity and give them a taste of the incredible new suppliers in the events industry, and it did just that.
Every year the London Summer Event Show asks its visitors to vote for their favourite stands as they leave the Show. This year’s visitor awards went to two fantastic and well deserved exhibitors:
Favourite Newcomer – Gusbourne Wines
Favourite stand – OXO-2
Other exciting awards given out at the end of the show were:
Exhibitor Marketing Award – Historic Royal Palaces
Highest visitor taps – Cream Group
Following a successful show we are already in the midst of planning the next one! The London Christmas Party Show is returning for its ninth year on the 18 – 19 July 2023 at the centrally located Haberdashers’ Hall. The Show is a MUST-ATTEND for event agents and corporate event buyers seeking the best venues and inspiration for not only their Christmas events but entire calendar of events for 2023/24.
