Northern Gas Networks

Northern Gas Networks hosted a two-day event for their contracted service providers at the Pavilions of Harrogate, bringing together over 800 operational staff. This event, held every few years, focuses on industry innovation and best practices, with presentations and workshops from more than 20 external manufacturers.

The conference was structured into four key sessions each day, featuring supplier-led presentations and live demonstrations. With just over 200 attendees in each 50-minute session, delegates rotated seamlessly between sessions, allowing everyone to engage fully with each topic. Breaks between rotations were used for refreshments and resetting the spaces, providing attendees with a comfortable and efficient experience.

The Pavilions of Harrogate proved to be an ideal venue for this large, multi-session event, highlighting its ability to support complex logistical requirements and facilitate smooth, large-scale audience movement across different rooms and areas. Its flexible space, high-capacity rooms and efficient layout made it possible for Northern Gas Networks to showcase critical new innovations while ensuring that every attendee could experience each presentation and demonstration first hand.

Following this successful event, Northern Gas Networks recognized the Pavilions of Harrogate as a valuable partner for managing sophisticated operational events, underscoring our venue’s capacity to handle high attendee turnover and complex event needs with ease.

“We have hosted this successful event with the Pavilions of Harrogate several times over the last decade. It has proved a very successful, well-organised event. All the facilities from car parking to the outdoor area, to the multitude of rooms, and break out areas allowed for demonstrations, talks, and accommodated mass amounts of refreshments for our attendees. The staff were very responsive and helpful to changes at short notice.

The venue has never failed to disappoint in providing a first-class facility. The staff conducted the event in a professional, polite, and friendly manner, ensuring the event ran smoothly. They dealt with any changes, or alterations effectively, and efficiently. We will be continuing to use this venue for future events.” – Garry Judge
