We loved the band and all the stage lighting. The performers were all amazing too. We were kept well entertained, it was a great production. The food was amazing and service was top notch as always. Your events are always grand. Loved it. Great night.
Impressing our top UK sales performers is no easy task, but we tried something different with our end-of-year celebration with Smart Group and I have to say it didn't disappoint!
Amazing night, very friendly and lovely staff, amazing venue and entertainment.
It was really well run! We had such great feedback from our team about it being the best Christmas party we’ve ever had!
The whole experience from booking with Jess, to the arrival, the food, the entertainment, was impeccable, absolutely brilliant evening. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed it from start to finish.
Great organisation from the pre-booking team, always available on the phone and quick email turn around. The venue was full but again the organisation was flawless and the staff serving were amazing. We were amazed by the band. Great evening, great souvenirs. We will book again for sure!
