EVENTS CONFERENCE AND
LET’S GET TOGETHER
By Tim Aldred
In-person events are firmly back on the agenda and the business community in Lancashire has enthusiastically embraced the opportunity to meet up once more with friends, colleagues and peers.
Following more than a year of lockdown restrictions, during which all of us but for those in the most critical jobs were confined to our homes, face-to- face communication has never been more keenly sought out.
Flexible working is the new key idea, but according to various studies, more than three-quarters of workers have been eager to return to the communal workplace at least in some capacity.
This new way of working has created demand for flexible working spaces, and increased the desire for get-togethers ranging from networking opportunities to industry conferences to team-bonding events.
No matter the event Lancashire, as ever, has the venue for the job.
Whether its a historic venue which has benefited from significant financial investment bringing it up to speed with modern-day demands - there’s more than one of these in our feature - to brand new spaces created
specifically to suit today’s business audience, event planners have a wealth of high-quality options from which to choose.
Over the next few pages you’ll get a taste of what the red rose county has on offer.
We go behind the scenes on an all-new coworking, meeting and events space, and introduce you to a new events venue which briefly opened shortly before the Covid-19 pandemic and is now fully open for business for good.
We also signpost you to other venues ready to take your booking - from one of the biggest venues in this or any other county at 4.9 acres, to a pair of resort-style venus which add first-rate R&R to their business offering.
Events venues have been some of the hardest struck businesses of the pandemic years, and taking your in-person and off-site is one way you can support Lancashire’s ongoing recovery.
We hope you find this guide inspiring.
