Hello and welcome to the March issue of Venue Insight Magazine, THE MUST HAVE publication for the UK hospitality industry.
CONTENTS
That’s another winter done then, well almost. Roll on the 26th March when the clocks go forward and the excitement of spring and summer kicks in.
We open proceedings with a fascinating exploration into the mind of British entrepreneur and absinthe revival leader George Rowley. It’s a remarkable story of determination and one that has single handily shaped the way absinthe is produced and distributed today.
All eyes turn to the North of England in March as the Northern Restaurant & Bar Show comes to town. Manchester Central hosts this fantastic two day event 21-22 March. Find out everything you need to know about this must see event in our jam packed feature.
We all know how important social media is for consumer engagement. Are you doing everything you can to enhance the consumer experience? Follow our hints and tips to see if you’re missing a trick.
Step into the crazy world of Handmade Mysteries – escape rooms with a twisted twist. If you have the space to play with it’s an amazing way to transform your venue and reap the rewards.
As always, we’re bursting at the seams, focusing on products, trends, news, lifestyle and education around the industry.
Enjoy! David Sullivan - Editor
