Layout details
- Theatre style: Theatre style layout is where you have rows of chairs, usually facing the front of the room where the speaker is presenting from.
- Cabaret style: Cabaret style layout is where you have clusters of tables and chairs around the room, usually facing the front of the room where the speaker is presenting from. This style is sometimes also referred to as ‘classroom’.
-
Cafe Style: Cafe style is similar to cabret, but allows for more tables, with 4-6 chairs placed around each.
-
Boardroom style: Boardroom style layout usually consists of a single table that is large enough to seat all delegates around the outside and is most suited to a smaller group where there is likely to be plenty of discussions.
- U-shape style: U-shape layout is where tables are placed in the shape of a U, with chairs on the outside of the U. This is most suited to a smaller group where there is likely to be plenty of discussion.
-
Drinks reception / standing style: Drinks receptions usually involve guests standing up in a room with small poseur tables dotted around the room for guests to rest drinks on. We can offer either a tray drinks service where staff circulate around your guests offering them drinks, or alternatively guests can take drinks and food items from a buffet station.
-
Interview Style: Interview style is where a few tables are placed together with a number of chairs placed around to conduct face-to-face discussions.
