a breakdown of the EVCOMference event

Facilities and facts
Spaces
The Dock Gallery and South Dock Meeting Rooms are a great combination to provide airy talk and catering space alongside versatile breakouts.
What the client loved
The EVCOM team were drawn to the out-of-the-ordinary and unusual aspects of the venue which they felt added a further dimension to the event.
Why Tobacco Dock?
The event organiser was looking for a venue that was ‘different, stylish, trendy and new, but still with a corporate edge.’ They were drawn to the out-of-the-ordinary and unusual aspects of the venue which they felt added a further dimension to the event.
The unique layout of the Dock Gallery meant that the event organisers were able to create a journey for the delegates. The flexible capabilities of space meant that they could create different stages to the day and the use of the South Dock Meeting Room Suite allowed them to stage breakout sessions in a fresh location close by.

The event
The catering was displayed on worktop benches allowing guests to benefit from a buffet-style service with salads, plentiful vegetarian options and separate meat dishes meaning all dietary requirements were met in a low key and inclusive way.
The EVCOM team worked with the Tobacco Dock operations team to order stage furniture through our approved and trusted suppliers as well as benefitting from the in-built AV specification in The Dock Gallery and dedicated technician throughout the event.
The EVCOM team will be returning in November for a large awards event. They remarked that they love the flexibility of the venue and that it has the capacity to provide spaces for smaller meetings as well as big awards or conferences
Tobacco Dock truly offers something very special within the events industry and we’ve never worked anywhere quite like it. We were impressed by the enormous scope and breadth of offering.
The entire Tobacco Dock team was responsive, friendly and constantly available to discuss issues and ideas throughout the event. Our assigned account manager really helped us to visualise how the finished event could look and was constantly three steps ahead of any issues that could arise. The operations team were so on it, with constant checks throughout the day to ensure everything was running smoothly."
