As someone who spends every day supporting clients with venue sourcing, I know how challenging the current events landscape can be. Demand is high, lead times are short, budgets are tight, and businesses need fast, reliable answers. The UK events sector is moving at a pace we’ve never seen before and planners simply don’t have time for slow searches, outdated venue lists, or endless back‑and‑forth.
That’s exactly why this new tool matters.
Why I’m Excited About Our New Live Venue Search
Last month, we officially launched our new Live Venue Search, powered by our online venue-search portal, MeetingsHub. It’s a really exciting step forward for Conference Care and gives our clients another simple way to find the right venue.
And because the events industry is evolving rapidly, MeetingsHub, is too. We’re constantly developing new features to make venue sourcing quicker, easier, and more cost‑effective while maintaining the personal, high-quality service we’re known for.
You can start using it straight away, right here.
Why Live Venue Search Is Such a Big Step Forward
Our Live Venue Search instantly scans over 100,000 venues across the UK, pulling in the details planners actually need: capacities, sustainability credentials, layouts, and more. Whether you’re sourcing a major conference venue, a hybrid‑ready studio, or a small meeting space for your team, the tool finds options that match your criteria – not just “near enough”.
You can shortlist unlimited venues, whilst using the map view to check transport links and proximity to your office or delegates. In a market where travel time, carbon impact, and budget oversight matter more than ever, having this level of clarity is invaluable.
Conference Care is passionate about its people and its clients, which is why we’re not taking away any part of our service; we’re just adding to it. In a time when so many services are being taken over by AI chatbots and service agents, we believe the human approach is still the best. That’s why, behind the live venue search is the same team that has always been supporting our clients, and should you need support with any of your shortlisted venues, we’ll be on hand to assist.
Why This Matters for UK Businesses Right Now
The UK events industry is under pressure to deliver more with less – less time, less budget, less environmental impact. Businesses need tools that help them make smart decisions quickly, without compromising on quality or sustainability.
Our Live Venue Search does exactly that.
It gives planners instant access to real, usable venue data. It cuts out unnecessary admin. It supports ESG goals. And, it brings transparency to a part of the industry that has historically been slow and fragmented.
For me personally, seeing this tool go live feels like a milestone. It’s something we have poured a lot of our time and energy into, and I’m incredibly proud of what it offers.
If you’re planning an event, or simply starting to explore your options, I’d encourage you to give it a try. It’s quick, straightforward and built around what planners need today.
