Pre-Planning
Ideally, high-level planning should start 4-6 months ahead of your event but it's never too early to start planning a conference or event. Major conferences may have much longer planning time cycles of 18 months or more! This is the time to establish your event goals and objectives. To think about the purpose of your event and what sort of venue will suit. What sort of conference or meeting facility do you need? Theatre style, cabaret style, classroom style, boardroom style or a combination? Outdoor spaces for team-building? Our conference brochure gives some ideas.
Post-Planning
Evaluation of your event is crucial to enable you to learn for future conferences. One of the best ways is to send out a post event survey to your delegates – you can download our sample post event survey here.
At the Golden Jubilee Conference Hotel, we work with BDRC/VenueVerdict to obtain post-event feedback from all our conference organisers and translate the data received into business intelligence that we can act on. This allows us to keep up to date with what our clients need from a conference venue of excellence.
We think we’ve covered everything you need to know about event planning and management, but our Events Team are happy to help you through the process. To ensure all your requirements are fully met, give them a call on 0141 951 6006.
We are also happy to suggest some options for you or to recommend experienced Professional Conference Organisers (PCOs) familiar with working in the Golden Jubilee Conference Hotel.
We also encourage conference organisers to liaise as much as possible with their dedicated event planner during their conference, as this is essential to a smooth and organised event experience.
