On Wednesday, 4th December, Liverpool Convention Bureau hosted its much-anticipated annual London Showcase at the prestigious Ned Hotel – taking the Liverpool City Region to London.
We were joined by an incredible line-up of venue, accommodation and supplier partners from across the Liverpool City Region to present the very best our destination has to offer for business events. It was a fantastic day filled with networking, celebrations and festive cheer!
Why The Ned? A Touch of Liverpool in London
We couldn’t have picked a more fitting venue than The Ned Hotel. Known for its luxurious setting in the heart of London, The Ned also shares some fascinating historical ties with Liverpool. Originally built as the Midland Bank headquarters, the building was designed by celebrated architect Sir Edwin Lutyens, whose work also includes the crypt of Liverpool’s Metropolitan Cathedral. This connection added a unique and meaningful touch to our event.
The Stunning Tapestry Room: A Perfect Festive Setting
Our Christmas lunch took place in The Ned’s spectacular Tapestry Room. The space is truly something special, with an awe-inspiring grand tapestry adorning its upper walls. Created in 1929 at Lee’s Tapestry Works in Birkenhead, the intricate design pays homage to craftsmanship rooted in the Liverpool City Region. The room’s warmth and elegance made it the perfect setting to celebrate the year’s successes while embracing the festive spirit.
A Celebration of Success and Collaboration
The London Showcase has become a highlight of our business events calendar. It’s a chance to celebrate what we’ve achieved together over the past year while connecting with key London-based agencies, associations and corporate clients. The event wasn’t just about showcasing Liverpool City Region’s exceptional business event offerings but also about strengthening relationships and building new partnerships for the future.
As always, we couldn’t have done it without the continued support and enthusiasm of our Liverpool City Region partners including our headline sponsors ACC Liverpool, MSP, Avanti and INTX. Everyone’s passion and dedication made the day unforgettable and reinforced why Liverpool is such a compelling destination for business events.
Looking Ahead
With 2025 just around the corner, we’re excited to build on this success and continue promoting Liverpool City Region as a leading destination for conferences, exhibitions and corporate events. A massive thank you to everyone who joined us and helped create such a memorable day.
