This is a short, accessible and practical guide to running venues which are in the business of hosting events. Using honest guidance peppered with the author’s real-life situational anecdotes to contextualise the topics, the book is logically structured around the key stages of event management: pre-event, onsite and post-event. Topics covered include developing the client relationship, marketing, financial accountability, risk, interdepartmental communication, onsite procedures and post-event evaluation. This is a fundamental resource for all events management and hospitality students. It is also a book for anybody who manages a venue or is a venue event manager. The Practical Guide to Managing Event Venues makes the business of venue management appealing, understandable and achievable.

Recenzijos

This is an excellent book and should be a core text for anyone involved in organising events. It gives practical guidance in managing event venues, presented in a very accessible format. Through the use of examples and the author's voice box, event organisers can understand how to manage the ins and outs of working with an event venue. Both students and professionals will benefit from the practical tips that are given to understand the complexity of coordinating an event. Ariane Lengyel, University of West London, UK

Philip Berners is a highly experienced event manager and this book reflects his depth of knowledge as an active practitioner in the events industry. For students of events management this is a must-read and will assist them enormously in their studies and give them the necessary skills for employability in the industry.
