The Royal Society brings 350 years of heritage and distinctive event spaces to The BNC Show
A venue with more than 350 years of scientific heritage, 12 versatile event spaces and a spectacular central London setting The Royal Society is bringing its unique events proposition to The BNC Show this October.
We’re delighted to welcome The Royal Society to The BNC Show on Thursday 29th October, when event professionals will have the opportunity to meet the team and discover what makes this historic venue such a distinctive setting for corporate events.
Located on Carlton House Terrace overlooking The Mall and St James’s Park, The Royal Society offers 12 event spaces accommodating everything from intimate meetings and boardroom gatherings to conferences, receptions and dinners for larger groups.
And while the venue is steeped in history, its event facilities are firmly contemporary, with modern AV technology, on-site technical support, WiFi, natural daylight and a dedicated conference team.
Juliette Abora, Sales and Marketing Manager at The Royal Society, says:
“We’re delighted to be exhibiting at the BNC Show and to have the opportunity to showcase the Royal Society.
What makes The BNC appealing to us is that the show is well established, focuses on genuine connections and brings together event professionals and decision makers in a relaxed and engaging environment.
“It will be a great opportunity for us to make new contacts and share what makes the Royal Society such a prestigious venue for any potential events.
“For visitors to the show, the Royal Society team will be on hand to talk through its 12 spaces and demonstrate how its unique combination of heritage and modern facilities can work for today's events.
“Visitors can expect the chance to discover more about our 12 versatile spaces, including our impressive Marble Hall and historic Wolfson rooms, all located in our Grade I listed building overlooking the Mall.
“As the UK’s National Academy of Science, our venue combines over 350 years of scientific heritage with modern, state-of-the-art event facilities, which offers a truly memorable setting for meetings, conferences, receptions and dinners. We’ll be on hand to chat through any ideas and share our expertise.”
Nathan Paulden, Director of The BNC, says:
“The Royal Society brings something very special to The BNC Show. It’s a venue with an extraordinary story and an unmistakable sense of place, but what’s particularly interesting for our event professionals is how that heritage works alongside the facilities and flexibility required for modern events.
“We’re looking forward to giving our visitors the opportunity to meet the team, discover the spaces and perhaps see The Royal Society in a completely different light as an events venue.”
With its combination of history, prestige, flexibility and a remarkable central London location, The Royal Society is certainly one to look out for at this October’s BNC Show.
