York & Scarborough Conferences hold a unique buyer Showcase

York & Scarborough Conferences hosted their dynamic venue showcase, exhibiting the best venues the area has to offer at York Racecourse's Ebor Stand on Thursday 31st March 2011.

The showcase offered the perfect opportunity for conference and event organisers to meet with venue representatives under one roof. Over 50 venues and suppliers exhibited, such as the National Railway Museum, Cedar Court Grand Hotel & Spa and the Scarborough Spa, and met over 60 buyers who attended from across the country.

The exhibition was followed by a two course networking lunch at York Racecourse and buyers then took part in afternoon site visits consisting of 3 or 4 York venues tailored to the buyers needs. The Showcase then moved across to Scarborough where over forty guests attended an evening drinks reception and dinner with accommodation provided. Site visits took place in Scarborough the following morning and the whole event was rounded off with a farewell lunch at Raven Hall Country House Hotel.
