A Focus On A Favourite Birmingham Venue – Edgbaston Cricket Club

As an Event Management Company, we’re lucky enough to work at some great sporting venues and have developed great relationships with the venue and their team. We’d like to review another venue we are missing during lockdown and that’s the awesome Edgbaston Stadium.

Edgbaston Cricket Club offers a range of inspiring meeting spaces, engaging delegates from the moment they arrive to one of UK’s leading sporting venues. Their dedicated team are always on-hand to help plan your meeting and ensure it runs as smoothly as possible. 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.

Located in Birmingham, Edgbaston is an award-winning conference, events, and meeting venue. Their dedicated, passionate, and experienced events team will work with you to deliver a truly unforgettable occasion that you and your guests will remember for years to come.

Our Banqueting Suite which is sure to provide the perfect venue to host your next event, offering exceptional adaptability to customise this space to make your event unique to you.

 

Room with a stunning view

Named after West Indies legend Brian Lara’s record-breaking unbeaten 501 for Warwickshire in 1994, the new 501* brings a new sophisticated, stylish, and modern appeal to the facilities at Edgbaston.

The innovative design of the room encapsulates Lara’s achievement with a tiled wall providing a ball-by-ball account of the innings and a plaque to greet you upon entering, dedicated to the events at Edgbaston on 6 June, 1994.

 

We share some of our most favourite events at the venue over the years which gives 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 Decor – Dancing through the Decades  

Dance through the decades

Eventologists transformed the Exhibition Hall during the month of December for the annual joiner parties which are by far one of the most popular parties to attend in Birmingham. From the moment that guests walk in, they were transported through musical decades with funky 70’s disco props, 80’s props and 90’s décor. This theme was colourful and set the scene for the Smash Hits them

 

e. Walls in colourful draping, music posters, slinky ceilings, and cool selfie spots for a pic with your besties. This retro theme is fun and hugely immersive as everyone manages to get into the groove when they hear their favourite tracks!

Christmas Décor – Glam and Glitz

We have designed another glamourous joiner ChHollywood glamristmas party at Edgbaston Stadium Exhibition Hall. This time the theme was Glitz and Glam – a popular dress up theme for Christmas Events. It’s colours reminded us of the silver screen with blacks, silver and white as the base colour. A great alternative idea to an Oscars Themed Event or a Hollywood Theme Corporate Event. Our ideas for this staff party included Hollywood poster props, glitzy Hollywood entrance as well as an array of Hollywood Theme decor as well as a magical glittery ceiling with crystal chandeliers and mirror balls. Super chic and sexy, this alternative Oscar Themed Party is always popular at

  • We had the absolute pleasure of working with Eventologists for our Congress gala dinner, and they were nothing short of exceptional. From the beginning, they embraced our Bridgerton theme with creativity, enthusiasm, and incredible attention to detail - transforming the venue into a breathtakingly elegant space, complete with a stunning floral tunnel that truly wowed our guests. Despite several last-minute changes and back-and-forths with the venue and room location, Rita and her team remained patient, professional, and kind throughout. Their flexibility and calm under pressure made the process so much easier and more enjoyable for us. They didn’t just meet our expectations - they went above and beyond anything we had imagined, bringing our vision to life in the most magical way. We can’t thank them enough and would highly recommend Eventologists to anyone looking to create a truly unforgettable event.

  • We were under a tight deadline to open a new lounge venue at our Virgin Hotels London Shoreditch property, and Eventologists saved the day! I reached out to them in the last hour to install temporary artificial plants around the top perimeter of the venue for a photo shoot and our grand opening party. They responded to me in such a quick manner and installed the plants overnight! The team loves how they turned out. Thank you Eventologists!

  • Whatever my vision is for an event, Eventologists always deliver and then some! I've worked with them on three events, one of them was transforming our plain office to an 80s wonderland with a Speakeasy bar! Andrew and the team are a dream to work with and they're SO good at what they do and nothing is ever too much trouble, and if it is - they never make you feel like it is! Would highly recommend!

  • We have used Eventologists numerous times over the years, and each time they exceed our expectations. Rita and the team have a keen eye for detail and ensure a seamless experience from ideation to execution. Given the scale of our events, the demand for dressing three large rooms in individual themes is always a challenge, however, the feedback from our guests is always very positive, praising what Eventologists have delivered.
