Conferences and events in Norway

Having just returned from assessing  conference venues in Norway I am happy to say I was very impressed with the standards and the reasonable tariffs considering the cost of living in the country.

I have identified some venues that price similar to S E England and offer you  the highest standards of meeting space accommodation and catering with some exceptionally large space ( up to 8000 delegates )

It’s special and in my opinion its the  best place for conferences in Europe.

Another major plus when holding a conference in Norway is the fantastic team building opportunities available, and the wide range of corporate events on offer.

Green conference and events

Firstly, we need to establish what is a ‘green event’ is as people can become confused about all the differenct terminology and the different things we should be doing to save the world!

 A green event is a carefully  planned event taking into account its effects on the environment and trying to reduce its carbon footprint.

Green venues are suppliers that are environmentally responsible and care about the effect their dasy to day running has.

 Things organisers can do:

- Think carefully about the location – Will all delegates need to drive? If so can you organise a car share schme of transport in buses? Does it have good public transport links, so delegates can choose not to drive if they wish?

 - Events generally can be organise electronically – from contact with venue to online registration

- Try to use your 3 R’s – reduce, reuse and recycle – recytcle any brochures you receive, reuse exhibition stands and recycle ink cartridges! just a few simple things make a little difference!

- If your really into saving the environment, you can calculate your carbon footprint and do something to balance it out, for example, why not plant some trees and put it into your (electronical!) newsletter.

 Remember, a few little things do help!

Royal Yacht, Jersey

 The Royal Yacht in Jersey is a brand new Hotel, which has been reopened afer a massive £32 million expansion and refurbishment, which has expanded Jerseys conferce portfolio.

The Hotel has Conference and events facilities, looking fresh and upd to date, with a real edge. It is close to the St Helier Marina, and only 15 minutes from the airport, making it very accessible. 

Their conference facilities are extensive, ranging from small boardrooms catering for up to 12 people, to the Celestial Hall which caters for theatre-style seating of up to 280 people.

The main conference suite is very flexible and can be custimized to meet your needs – with Audio Visual equipment and partioned walls, allowing you to breakout into syndicate rooms if needed

 Jersey is a great place to have a conference – It is not only 35 minutes away from most UK airports, but it could motivate your delegates. Jersey is not too far away and has a better feel to it than the usual conference in London. 

 The Hotel has 108 bedrooms and two penthouse suites and some excellent bars, restaurants and a Spa to relax in - well worth a look!

Purpose Built Conference Centres

Purpose built conference centres are often a perfect venue for an event. They have been designed with the delegate in mind and are very business orientated. This means you will be able to connect to the internet via Wifi, they have fax machines and phones for you to keep in cobntact with the outside world and have masses of syndicate rooms for break out sessions. More importantly, they are not overpriced and will meet your every need.

 Here are some excellent conference centres:

 - Missenden Abbey

- Woodland Grange

- BSG

- Lane End Conference Centre
