Corporate EventsWe all talk about death by Powerpoint. Hours and hours in a darkened room watching never-ending slides. Zoom meetings that never quite get going. Great ideas that somehow disappear into an abyss…..because people have forgotten how to network.
There’s never been a better time to re-engage with your delegates, whether they’re colleagues or clients. And finding ways to inform and entertain your guests whilst getting across those vital messages.
Why not help your delegates break the ice and unwind after a long day in a conference room. With a game of skittles, age and ability are never an issue. There’s a bit of beginner’s luck involved too, so it’s a great leveller. But more importantly it’s just for fun and a great conversation starter. No more of this ‘ get my people to talk to your people’ or running stuff up a flagpole somewhere. Cheering on your new skittles team mates can lead to new conversations, new ideas and new business.
We have a range of portable, professional alleys available for a variety of events which can be tailored to the venue of your choice. We can even organise your event, from a basic level through to a full stage show with lighting, audio visual screens and a presenter. All you have to do is tell us your requirements.
What’s more, we can organise a complete weekend for you with superb accommodation, meals, top drawer entertainment and even return coach transport.
From conferences and corporate dinners, to trade shows, team building, seminars and staff events, we guarantee a great atmosphere for social mingling and relaxing after a long day. Plus something totally different to just standing at the bar.
We are proud to have been organising events for 25 plus years so you are in safe hands. Every year we stage a highly popular series of skittle themed weekends in hotels across the south of England.
Serious About Events also organises the annual British Skittles Championships which attracts entries from more than 150 teams from all around the UK. Our Grand Finals day sees 64 qualifying teams and more than 1,000 players and supporters attending this event and the grand finals and presentations in the evening.
We are the go-to organisation for anything involving skittles. Co-director Serious About Events Rachel Hosking is regularly interviewed on television, radio and in print on the subject of skittles and the championships. She even guested on BBC 1’s The One Show giving hosts Alex Jones and Matt Baker a few tips on rolling a skittle ball.
We knew we wanted something different to the norm, something that would see our colleagues interact in a more relaxed way. We had never thought of skittles as something that could be so much fun and no pressure. It really brought even the quietest of our team out of their shell. Mixing up teams, putting colleagues together who don’t normally interact was a very great insight. It was interesting that the friendly competitive spirit became a bit more serious once everyone had found their skittles aim and wanted to win the trophy. Really great experience. Highly recommended.
