The Challenge: Connection and Creativity

LBB’s goal was to craft an intimate, high-impact event that suited their status as a platform for celebrating creativity and innovation in advertising. 

Key needs from the client:

  • Exclusive Use of the Venue: Spaces had to align with the conference’s networking aims:
    • Reception Area: A welcoming registration and greeting point.
    • The Arena: The central hub for panel discussions, with seating for 200 and high-tech AV.
    • The Stalls and The Stables: Flexible spaces for breakout sessions, refreshments, networking and activations.
  • Uncompromising Quality: From branding and AV to catering and guest logistics, every area needed to reflect LBB's brand and aims for the event.

Our Approach: A Venue as Dynamic as the Event Itself

From the initial planning stages, we became an extension of LBB’s team, working together to ensure every detail contributed to the conference’s success. The versatility of Park Village’s spaces allowed us to build a tailored experience:

  • The Arena: The venue’s infinity cove became the heart of the event. Branded with custom vinyl and brought to life with dynamic event lighting, this space set the tone for impactful discussions.
  • Reception Area: Delegates were greeted by an easy check-in process, supported by a wristband system for easy session management.
  • The Stalls and The Stables: These breakout spaces were set up for comfort, and branded with interactive activations to offer refreshing pauses between sessions.

Through working closely with LBB and our trusted suppliers, every element was considered and executed, including flawless Audio Visual setups, delicious lunch offerings and post-event cocktails, striking signage and smooth transitions.

  • AV and Lighting: Partnering with Positive Fokus, High-quality sound and visuals.
  • Catering: Cater London delivered a bespoke menu of drinks, canapés, and refreshments designed specifically for the client.
  • Branding and Signage: Sabre Graphics branded the infinity cove with LBB’s visuals to create the key focal point.
  • Guest Flow: Security and logistics partners, Gallowglass oversaw a steady guest flow throughout the day.

The "Better Together" conference was about connecting. From the breakout sessions to the evening networking reception. Park Village helped LBB plan this large scale event with clear communication and considered advice. The smooth guest flow of 200 guests, split across different sessions and spaces, was planned and managed effectively with the use of a simple wristband system and clear signage.
