A Focus on Favourite UK Venues: Nottingham, DeVere East Midlands Conference Centre

As Event Professionals, we’ve lucky enough to work at some great UK venues and have developed great connections with many venues and their teams. We’d like to review another venue we are missing during lockdown and that’s the awesome DeVere East Midlands Conference Centre.

The venue is not just known for its sustainability, but also its incredible professional Sales and Operations team who deliver personal service like a small boutique hotel whilst having the branded badge of DeVere. The venue offers great options for holding large and small events across the site. Let’s discover some of our favourite events that we have worked on here.

A Venue for Large and Small Events in Nottingham

DeVere East Midlands Conference Centre is an idyllic location for conferences and conventions. Its set in 330 acres of the University of Nottingham’s landscaped parkland so it feels like you’re a million miles away but you’re not! De Vere East Midlands Conference Centres has recently been refurbished and is a stone’s throw from the eco-friendly De Vere Orchard Hotel.

Voted as Best Auditorium and short listed for the Best Onsite Audio Visual at the CHS 2018 Awards, East Midlands Conference Theatre provides a great space for up to 550 delegates. The Auditorium has tiered seating and a large screen for symposiums and presentations as well as a Banqueting Suite that offers a flexible space for exhibitions, awards evenings, and gala dinners, hosting up to 1000 for a conference or 580 for a meal.

With a choice of 21 meeting rooms plus accommodation of 202 bedrooms at DeVere Orchard Hotel, it’s a perfect location for a residential conference in the East Midlands or a full day conference and Awards dinner. It is a great option for those seeking perfect UK venues for corporate events.

Highlights of the Venue

We share some of our most favourite events at UK venues and in particular the DeVere East Midlands Conference Centre to give you great ideas of how versatile the venue is for a range of events and just why we’ve chosen to rave about it!

Christmas Ho Ho Ho Down for Capital One

The financial firm Capital One hired the Eventologists Team to design and deliver one of the biggest Christmas Parties at East Midlands Conference Centre with almost 1000 party revelers. Going away from your traditional Christmas Theme, we worked with them on a Wild West Themed Showdown for their staff Christmas Party. With long tables, wild west themed props, full room transformation, can-can dancers and other wildwest entertainers such as a Rodeo Bull, Shoot Out Games as well as Wild West Photobooths! What a night to remember! 

Gala Dinner Decor – Futuristic Theme

Eventologists often get requests for futuristic themed table centres or modern centrepieces to fit in with a future theme gala dinner. Futuristic Themes are great at East Midlands Conference Centre as the building itself is so modern and contemporary. Our client, who is a logistics company gave us a brief of lit table centres and we suggested our Light Up Bubble Vase Table Centres along with a futuristic tunnel and blue and white lighting. It’s a great theme for male dominated awards events and also a popular theme for scientific companies, IT companies and manufacturing companies!

Venue Décor – A Night at the Movies – Oscars come to Hollywood!

We have designed some unique Christmas party for Capital One at DeVere East Midlands Conference Centre. This time the theme was A Night at the Movies. It’s an alternative idea to an Oscars Themed Event or a Hollywood Theme Corporate Event. Our ideas for this staff party with a twist included a secret cinema space, Hollywood poster props, glitzy Hollywood entrance as well as an array of Hollywood Theme Entertainment and Hollywood Look-a-like entertainers to amaze guests with their canny resemblance to Hollywood Super stars. An Oscar Themed Party is always popular at Christmas or for Awards Dinners as its such a celebratory theme. We have so many Oscar Themed/Hollywood Themed Décor and Entertainment to choose from, so you can be guaranteed that no one event will be the same! 

Festival Themed Conference

Another great event was hosted at East Midlands Conference Centre and Nottingham University where Eventologists were given just 4 hours to transform the entire site in a festival theme. The event was a 2-day conference held at the UK venue.

We were given a task of transforming the entire site in a sustainable festival theme. The Summer Festival event had the objective of a space where people could network, share creative ideas and future thinking and collaborative.  Décor include summer artificial trees, a living sponsor wall, artificial turf hire, foliage pillar wraps, a cloud in the blue-sky thinking space, giant festival letters with real plants for people take away and pallet furniture for booths and outdoor seating.

Gala Dinner – Great Gatsby Theme

One of our favourite spaces at the East Midlands Conference Centre is dressing the long corridor that leads to the main banqueting suite. There’s just so much that you can do with entrances especially when it’s a Great Gatsby style entrance area. Stunning 20’s style fret screens, art deco fan props, stunning Great Gatsby themed table centres.

Nottingham University Conferences and East Midlands Conference Centre feels like home from home. We can’t wait to do our next event there. This a great space for Self-distancing Events in Nottingham and a Corporate Venue in Nottingham that has so many possibilities for any type of corporate event – a dream for Event Management Companies or Venue Search Companies!

Venue Focus: Hilton Birmingham Metropole is Covid Secure and Ready to Open its Doors!

Venue Focus: Hilton Birmingham Metropole is Covid Secure and Ready to Open its Doors!

Another one of our favourite venues, Hilton Birmingham Metropole, have announced their Covid Secure Venue Plan, so we thought we would share this with you!

Next week, Hilton will begin a worldwide roll-out of a new program to deliver an industry-leading standard of cleanliness and disinfection to Hilton properties.

Hilton CleanStay, created in collaboration with Lysol and Dettol maker RB and Mayo Clinic, includes new procedures to help Hilton guests enjoy an even cleaner and safer stay starting this summer.

Hilton and RB have expanded this partnership to support the global portfolio of hotels and the trusted RB family of products will be used in multiple markets around the world.

Hilton CleanStay from Check-in to Check-out

  • Online: Even before they travel, guests will find a new landing page at Hilton.com/cleanstay which will detail what they can expect during their stay. In addition, property websites will be updated to indicate that the new cleaning protocols and procedures have been implemented.
  • The Lobby: Guests who desire a contactless arrival experience can check-in, choose their room, unlock their door with a Digital Key and check-out using their mobile devices through the free Hilton Honors mobile app. This option is available at more than 4,700 participating Hilton properties worldwide for guests who book direct via the Honors app or at Hilton.com. For guests who prefer a traditional check-in, physical distancing measures will be in place directing guests on how to move through the in-person check-in and check-out process in a safe way.
  • The Guest Room: The first point of contact with the guest room will be with the Hilton CleanStay room seal, placed on the door upon being thoroughly cleaned. The room will have extra disinfection of the most frequently touched guests room areas – light switches, door handles, TV remotes, thermostats and more. It will be de-cluttered, with items like pens and paper removed. Disinfecting wipes will be provided in every room for guest use.
  • Housekeeping Service: Guest rooms will be thoroughly cleaned and disinfected between guests. Housekeeping service during a guest stay will be based upon guest preference, recognizing that some guests may not want staff entering their room. Additional amenities such as linens and toiletries will be available upon request, delivered in protective packaging and placed at the guest room door.
  • The Public Spaces: There will be increased frequency of cleaning public areas. For instance, fitness centers may be closed for cleaning multiple times daily. Equipment will be properly adjusted and placed to enable physical distancing, and the number of guests in the center may be limited. Pool and pool areas will be cleaned frequently throughout the day, and physical distancing measures will be in place. Stations with hand sanitizer and disinfecting wipes will be available throughout the property at primary entrances and in key high traffic areas.
  • Food and Beverage: In hotel restaurants, tables and chairs will be spaced to ensure proper physical distancing. Biodegradable, disposable dishes/utensils will be available upon request. During breakfast, restaurants will offer a range of options including grab & go, pre-plated covered items, à la carte and assisted service. When ordering room service where it is provided, guests will experience contactless delivery, with orders and single-use serviceware placed outside their guestroom door.
  • Meetings & Events: The upcoming Hilton EventReady with CleanStay program will set a new standard for meetings and events at Hilton. This program will deliver cleanliness, flexibility, safe and socially responsible solutions, along with creative food and beverage, the latest technology and sustainable practices. With a dedicated focus on health and wellness, the event experience from planning to execution is backed by Hilton’s world-class hospitality with responsive service from dedicated Team Members.

Elements of Hilton CleanStay will greet guests from the moment they enter the hotel and will be present throughout every aspect of the experience, ensuring the well-being of guests and Team Members without compromising the hospitality Hilton is known for.

As a part of Hilton’s new standard of hotel cleanliness and sanitization, training was designed to ensure all Team Members are aware of the steps they can take to keep themselves and others healthy while at work. During a stay, guests may encounter Team Members using creative ways to welcome them and demonstrate their hospitality while wearing protective equipment and staying respectful of physical distance.

75 Best Party Themes that Event Planners Suggest after Covid-19 Lockdown

75 Best Party Themes that Event Planners Suggest after Covid-19 Lockdown

There’s no doubt that following almost four months of lockdown, a big celebration party will be at the top of many people’s minds. Creative event themes are an amazing way to take any party to the next level – ensuring your guests have an awesome time and step away from a very memorable event.

The tricky part of your post-Covid event planning will be coming up with the perfect theme or party idea, and this is where Eventologists can add inspiration. After all, we are the event Engineers. We understand the ‘oology’ of events and we always have our pulse on the latest event trends.

We’ve been looking at event themes that will be popular for parties post-Covid, and we’ve surveyed our close clients and event planners to share their thoughts on the best upcoming themed events ideas.

With everyone desperate to meet, friends, family and colleagues – balloons, streamers, banners, beer, and burgers just won’t cut it. People will have a penchant for cool new ideas and experiences, so live events will need to be even more innovative and creative than before!

To help inspire you in this area, we’ve compiled a list of 75 cool post-Covid event themes, where we’re sure you will find the most epic theme for your next party.

Our list includes tips on how to turn favourite party themes like Vegas or Glam & Glitz Nights into truly unforgettable experiential event themes. Our suggestions offer a range of themes, from party ideas that are a bit abstract to classic party themes to futuristic event themes.

You can customize any of our unique party theme ideas into your own personalized version to make it even better. Was hope as you go through our list that you’ll feel inspired to get your own innovative ideas flowing.

Top 75 Event Theme Ideas:

1. Carnival ThemeWe love creating event themes around real events, and since this year we can’t travel easily, how about creating your favourite carnival in your backyard? Maybe a Caribbean Carnival Theme or a Rio Carnival Themed Event? Or perhaps nearer to home, a Notting Hill Carnival Theme? Use bright coloured bunting in the ceiling, large feather mask props and over the top entrances and installations to create the vibe! And don’t forget to book the steel drums band and carnival float!

2. Coachella Theme
You don’t need to feel the FOMO, grab your friends, and bring the party to you by hosting a Coachella-themed party to your garden. This festival is all about fashion, music and the arts so make sure that you set the BOHO themed dress code for your event with an epic playlist of the fave summer tracks. This arts and music festival should feature the compulsory larger-than-life sculptures to decorate your festival space – maybe over-sized butterflies, a Ferris wheel and flowers. Chill out on rugs and big cushions in tepees whilst sipping on colourful cocktails!

Music Festival Event Theme

3. Music Festival Theme
Let’s face it whilst we’ve loved the virtual events, we are all missing the real thing. So why not grab your neighbours and friends and host your favourite Music Festival like a street Festival. Music Festivals are all about the best music, bands, Camping and beer, so why not set up beer tents, a music stage for a live band, set up tents on your front lawn. Decorate your garden or street with bunting and festoon lights, hire Pallet seating and Bean Bags to chill out on and drop in some bright festival props to transform the space.

4. Pop Art Theme
We’ve borrowed some inspiration from ‘Warhol’ to create this Pop Culture Theme that we love so much.

We’ve all spent almost 4 months in lockdown in our pyjamas with no one to show our loungewear to, so how about an adults slumber event with teepees, lots of cushions and lots of pampering. We can organise nail artists and massage therapists to provide ultimate relaxation after which we can watch your favourite chick flick on the big screen!

70. Street Food Festival Theme
Who doesn’t love a festival especially if its about food? We’ve all been obsessed with eating, take-outs and cooking during lockdown and who doesn’t enjoy some artisan street food whilst listening to your favourite tunes. Décor can include festoon lights, picnic tables, bunting and funky food stalls to create an urban street theme. Graffiti bars and colourful oil drum poseur tables finish the look and make this one of the most exciting themes for outdoor spaces or buffet dining options.

71. Circus Party Theme
Roll Up Roll Up, the Circus is in town. Everyone has missed their favourite acrobats, jugglers, and clowns in the last few months. How about creating a space that replicates the big top with a circus ceiling draping, festoon lighting and lots of circus props to create a truly theatrical look. We have painted circus posters, a Tiger’s cage, circus podiums and circular dance floor for acts!

.Seaside Event Theme72. Seaside Theme
‘Oh, I do love to be beside the seaside! What an old English classic and its so true, as soon as the weather gets better, we love going to the Beach for our dose of the British Seaside! Striped Deck Chair Hire, Ice Cream Vans, 99 Flake Props, Beach Hut Props, Sand, Sandcastles and other British Seaside Props makes this theme so endearing to us. The finishing touches must be Fish and Chips served in newspaper or cones!

73. Mediterranean Theme
Don’t we miss our Spanish villa holidays this year! We can recreate your favourite holiday theme or a Spanish Holiday Theme to transport you to where you want to be. Traditional market squares as food halls, pergolas with vines and bougainvillea’s, stunning fountains and stone seating for market squares and rustic villa fronts with cute balconies and hanging plants finish the look!

74. Murder Mystery Theme
If there’s one thing that we have enjoyed is experiential events during lockdown and a good old Netflix series. Re-enact your favourite series or host a classic who-did-it? Murder Mystery Night with characters, scenes out of the story in 3D and even a story board to allow people to keep up with the plot. Hold it outside for a truly immersive theme that makes people feel goose bumps as they walk around looking for clues!

75. Paris – City of Love Theme
It’s the ultimate city of romance and we are all missing city breaks for that holiday fix. A Paris theme is popular throughout the year as it has so many historic landmarks which you can replicate with Paris Themed Props! Create a traditional French bistro in your venue with lots of rustic style furniture and signage. It’s a great theme for valentine’s or love themed event or opt for a sophisticated Paris theme. Use black and red for the stage to replicate a stage for the Moulin Rouge and host a cabaret show as entertainment.

There are so many options for your post lockdown party. You’ve got a few weeks to think of them and plan the ultimate event and we are here to create the most magical bespoke event for you.

Top 10 Pub Game Ideas to Keep Customers and Guests Entertained

Top 10 Pub Game Ideas to Keep Customers and Guests Entertained

As Pubs, Bars and Hotels open, many are considering how to make the fond British pass-time fun again! We share with you some top pub games that mean hours of fun!

Games have always been an important feature in many pubs from traditional pub games, team pub games to electronic pub games. They’re great fun and can make a visit to the pub even more memorable.

History of Pub games

The history of pub games goes back centuries but historically, Kings, Queens and Governments controlled the playing of pub games and publicans were threatened of losing their license if they allowed games to be played. There were even serious fines under the reigns of Edward III and Edward VI for playing an innocent game of dominoes!

These days, games are an important part of pub culture and played in many pubs in the UK, sometimes to professional levels. Below, we review some of the top games people enjoy in pubs.

Top 10 Pub Games

Pool Table Hire, Pub GamesBackgammon: Whilst it’s one of the oldest pub games, backgammon is still a popular game today despite laws trying to ban it being played. Its origins come from the Middle East and became popular mainly due to the gambling aspect. These days, you can even get giant back gammon games being played in pub gardens!

Pool, Snooker and Billiards: When we create pub themed events, a pool table is a must for entertainment! The game was associated with riotous and disorderly behaviour and was banned from licensed premises in 1757, but nowadays snooker and pool tables create hours of fun and competition amongst pub-goers.

Pub Games DartsDarts: Whilst darts has been around for hundreds of years, its only recently become popular but is an iconic game in pubs. Several hundred years ago a version of the game known as ‘Puff and Dart’ was played where the dart was blown from a tube towards the target. Darts was made popular by the TV programme Bulls Eye and there are now teams who tour the country in professional darts matches!

Dominoes: Still a very popular game played with a set of 120 pieces and you can even play Giant Dominoes in pub gardens for fun. Some suggest that the game came to England from China others believe it originated in Italy or Spain, however this game is a firm favourite when you want to chill out with a pint!

Draughts: This can be a giant garden game or a board game with its origins in the Middle East, and like Backgammon likely to be introduced by the Crusaders in the 11th Century. Nowadays, it’s a game that everyone associates with pub nights out!

Amusement Arcade Machines: Some favourite pub games can now be played on amusement machines in pubs, but we think that there is nothing like the real fun of a pub board game. Popular machines that are often seen in pubs include fruit machines, simulators, retro arcade machines and quiz machines.

Card Games: Poker is one of the most popular card games in pubs, often just for fun. However, there are many other card games that are also popular for a quiet night at the pub with friends. These days its not uncommon to have cards nights at pubs

Pub Bingo GameBingo: Who doesn’t love a Bingo night at the pub? The game’s history goes back to 1530, to an Italian lottery called “Lo Giuoco del Lotto D’Italia,” which is still played every Saturday in Italy. Bingo is a popular game often played for cash and prizes. Bingo games are won when the player matches numbers on their card with ones randomly drawn by a caller. This is a firm favourite for pubs and restaurants to bring people together and a game that works in so many settings!

Pub Quiz: Pub quizzes became a feature of pubs in the 1970’s, but has grown massively in popularity especially in village pubs to bring communities together one night a week. It’s become one of the most played games across the country and especially during lockdown, almost everyone has participated in a pub quiz with a beer!

Skittles Alley, Pub GamesSkittles: There are skittles alleys and bowling alleys in many pubs, but this first arrived in pubs as ‘table skittles. It was used indoors with nine small wooden skittles on a raised wooden base, and a ball attached to a chain which players swing to knock over the skittles. These days, it’s a really fun physical game for an evening out playing skittles with friends.

  • We have worked with Eventologists for the a couple of years now and can't fault them from start to finish the whole process is very seamless and the stuff they do is incredible! We have themed evenings and they always come up with some fab ideas that help to emphasise the theme and bring it to life. Our events have conference sessions in the venue during the day and we transform them for our awards in the evening and Eventologists always completely transform the space for the evening so that it feels like you're in a completely different space which makes it all feel so much more special and a real celebration and by the time morning arrives its all completely cleared as if by magic!
