Budget Conference Venue Liverpool

The Foresight Centre

The current economic climate is forcing companies to think twice about holding conferences. However, with the right venue you may find that you can deliver a conference or meeting or press release in a cost effective manner.

The Foresight Centre is renowned for providing quality conference facilities at incredibly competitive prices. Budget does not mean low quality and The Foresight Centre has been short listed for Conference Venue of the Year on several occasions. It is also recognised by The Meetings Industry Association as “Accredited in Meetings”, giving the host confidence when making their booking.

The Foresight Centre is actually part of the University of Liverpool and it is housed in a stunning and historical Grade II listed building in the heart of the city centre. Internally the conference rooms have been designed to be inspirational. They are light and airy and all have air conditioning.

There are twenty rooms to choose from and they are all flexible so can be tailored to fit your requirements. When building your package you can chose from “Room Only” or “Fully Inclusive” rates. This allows you to be completely flexible and means you only pay for what you need. For example, you can book your choice of room (per day or per 4 hour session) and then select which, if any, equipment you will need for your meeting. You can chose from an assortment of equipment, such as CD player, flip chart and pens, projectors and microphones. You can then add to this with options such as sandwiches, tea and coffee.

By being allowed to specify in detail what you do require and what you don’t you are able to keep a firm handle on the costs, and if you want to host a meeting on a tight budget without the need for luxuries such as canapés or business folders then you can do so.

If on the other hand you do need to use a lot of equipment for your conference then the fully inclusive rates may be preferable.

For example, for £33.50 per head per day you can host your conference and include:

• Room hire
• Projector and laptop
• Flip chart and pens
• Wipe board
• TV and DVD
• Stationary
• Water and cordial
• Tea and coffee
• 2 Course lunch
• Conference team support

This rate offers significant value for money in comparison with some other venues in the city, making The Foresight Centre a location which should be seriously considered.
