Our team of event professionals have a wealth of experience and technical knowledge when it comes to delivering virtual and hybrid events.
Throughout COVID, the events landscape changed dramatically in terms of how we communicate and engage with both employees and customers.
​
As the UK emerges from lockdown restrictions, there are elements of virtual or hybrid requirements that will remain as an additional option for a variety of reasons.
This could be to reach a broader audience, increase engagement or reduce carbon emissions across a variety of event types. From sales kick-offs to training, awards ceremonies to customer engagement, we are able to create the perfect virtual or hybrid solution.
Please do not hesitate to contact our technical team to discuss any virtual or hybrid events and we would be delighted to share our "Broadcast Like A Pro" handbook we've put together with our technology partners.
​
An integral part of our company is sustainability.
We too believe preserving the planet's resources is absolutely vital and, in line with CCEP's innovative programmes such as net-zero gas emissions around the world by 2040, we're committed to doing our part wherever possible
​
Similarly to CCEP, we believe that business success and sustainability go in hand. This is why for each booking you confirm with Inspirational Venues, we plant 4 trees in our forest which is located in Tanzania.

In addition to our sustainability project, all confirmed bookings are put into a monthly prize draw with a chance of winning unforgettable experiences, such as nights away, special trips and afternoon teas.
FAM Trips
FAM (n): Familiarization Tour. A complimentary venue visit & tour for event bookers designed to acquaint them with a specific destination, venue or hotel to increase awareness and knowledge
At IVS, we host FAM trips to showcase ideal locations, hotels and amazing events suitable for you and the team.
We are excited to announce we have a number of FAM trips planned exclusively for CCEP over the forthcoming months.
If you would like to attend any of the upcoming FAM trips, please register your interest here and we will forward invitations once confirmed.
Wishing you a fantastic 2022 and we are really looking forward to working with you and to being of service!
