The Best Event Spaces in the World

Words Benedicta Asante 

Having worked with venues across the world for the last 4 years, Events Editor Benedicta Asante, has seen some interestingly unique venues which, pre-covid, would never have been considered for that serious business conference or half day meeting.

However, as the world embraces its new normal and the events industry begins to open up again, guests and event hosts are looking for spaces, which not only inspire but also add another dimension to their event. For this reason, event venues have spent millions of dollars on creating creative spaces which are flexible and versatile in their offerings. From corporates to leisure, consumers are now making their choices on where to stay and host events based on these unique factors and represent their brand voices. These eight venues are recommended as our top locations to stay, work and play around the world.
