Organising Your Corporate Event at Stirling Court Hotel

Planning a conference, meeting or event? Let us help you make this a successful event with some top tips and advice. We’ve created some key advice for each stage of the event planning process.

Pre-Planning for your Conference or Private Event

We recommend any high-level event planning to start between 4-6 months ahead of your event, but it’s never really too early to start the planning process. Large scale conferences can sometimes have planning time scales of 12-18 months due to their complex requirements.

During this phase it’s important to establish key objectives and any goals for your event. This will help you establish what sort of venue will work best for your needs. Are you looking for a specific type of meeting facility? Cabaret style? Boardroom style or theatre? Perhaps a combination of all three? As well as considering indoor facilities, it’s also important to think about outdoor spaces you could potentially need for team-building exercises.

This is where Stirling Court Hotel excels. The hotel is situated within the University of Stirling’s 330 acre grounds, providing your delegates an unparalleled experience. Our conference brochure provides more details of our facilities.
