Hello and welcome to our New Year issue of Venue Insight Magazine, THE MUST HAVE publication for the UK hospitality industry.


CONTENTS


I think it’s fair to say that 2016 has been a crazy and unpredictable year to say the least. Let’s hope that 2017 brings calm, peace and balance to all.


As always there’s something for everyone here. We’re jam packed with hospitality news, awesome products, trends, lifestyle and education around bars, pubs, clubs, events, restaurants.


If you’re looking to get to a trade show early in 2017 it can only be The Great Hospitality Show in Birmingham (NEC) 23rd – 25th January. We wrap up our preview of this fantastic event.


Why not take a trip north of the border to The SECC Glasgow 15-16 March for ScotHot? It’s bigger and better than ever! Find out all you need to know within.


It just leaves me to say – thanks for the amazing support you have all shown Venue Insight in 2016 and here’s to a happy and healthy 2017.
