Riverside views, world-class event spaces and a vibrant city destination: The Glasshouse and Hilton Tyne Bridge are joining forces at The BNC Show to put NewcastleGateshead firmly on the corporate events map.

London might be the default choice for many corporate events, but what if your next conference, awards dinner or leadership gathering took you somewhere different?

That’s the message The Glasshouse International Centre for Music is bringing to The BNC Show on Thursday 29th October at De Vere Grand Connaught Rooms alongside its neighbours at Hilton Tyne Bridge, to showcase what NewcastleGateshead can offer event planners.

From The Glasshouse’s striking riverside setting to the city’s wider choice of venues, accommodation and experiences, the partnership is designed to demonstrate how event organisers can create an exceptional delegate experience by bringing the right venues together.

Discover NewcastleGateshead

"We’re heading to The BNC Show to showcase the best of the North East and show event buyers just how much the region has to offer,” says Jennifer Smith, Head of Sales, Events & Hires at The Glasshouse International Centre for Music.

“From our stunning riverside setting at The Glasshouse to the vibrant destination of NewcastleGateshead, we’re here to demonstrate that great events don’t have to happen in London.

“With flexible spaces, exceptional service and a team that’s passionate about making events happen, we’re ready to help you bring your next conference, meeting, awards dinner or corporate event North.

“And we’re not doing it alone! We’ll be exhibiting alongside our neighbours at Hilton Tyne Bridge, just a stone’s throw from The Glasshouse. With accommodation and additional smaller meeting and event spaces, the two venues work brilliantly together to give event organisers everything they need for a seamless delegate experience.”

For event buyers, that means the opportunity to explore how the venues can complement one another, whether the brief calls for a large-scale conference, a corporate celebration, a meeting programme or a multi-day event.

Take it North

Visitors to STAND 168 will have the chance to meet both teams, discover what’s possible in NewcastleGateshead and discuss their own upcoming events.

“Come and meet the teams behind The Glasshouse and Hilton Tyne Bridge, get inspired by what’s possible in NewcastleGateshead and, most importantly, tell us about your next event,” adds Jennifer.

“Whether you’re actively sourcing a venue or simply curious about what the North East could offer, we’d love to talk. Expect plenty of ideas, local insight and a few reasons to put “take it North” on your next event brief.

“Come and say hello - we’d love to show you what’s possible.”

BNC Show Director Nathan Paulden says that one of the best things about The BNC is giving event professionals the chance to discover venues and destinations they might not have considered before..

“The Glasshouse and Hilton Tyne Bridge are a great example of how venues can work together to offer a more complete solution for event organisers. We’re delighted to welcome them and to them help put NewcastleGateshead on more event planners’ radars.”

So, if you're planning a conference, meeting, awards dinner or corporate gathering, why not look North?
