\u201cWe welcome this morning\u2019s announcement from the Prime Minister about the wider return to business for conference and events venues on 1 October, which will bolster confidence across the industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIn July we outlined our Safe Meetings & Events Promise<\/a> and hosted a successful pilot meeting to showcase the procedures that we have implemented  to ensure the health and safety of our clients, guests and our staff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe are speaking with multiple clients about staging further meetings and events within these guidelines and with a maximum capacity of 30 guests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThrough our experience to date and our relationship with Birmingham City Council, we are leaders in delivering safe events and have also received national recognition for our part in the Government\u2019s spectator pilot programme. This saw Edgbaston accommodate more than 800 spectators<\/a> at a cricket match less than two weeks ago to support the safe return of spectators to live sporting events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMoving ahead, our current operations put Edgbaston Events in an excellent position for the wider reopening of conference and events from 1 October and for our planned Fireworks Extravaganza, in November, and the subsequent Christmas Party<\/a> season, with our Dancing Through the Decades events now on-sale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe welcome the opportunity for further discussion with our clients on all types of events and our team can be contacted on 0121 369 1994 (option 3) or email events@edgbaston.com<\/strong><\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
