8TH ANNUAL COOL VENUE AWARDS (2015) SPONSORSHIP PACKAGES

The 8th annual COOL Venue Awards is to be hosted at Café de Paris on Thursday 5th March 2015 (1800pm-12midnight+).

Created by the market-leading Prestige Events magazine (est 2003), last year’s COOL Venue Awards at Ministry of Sound was attended by 900 of the coolest and most influential event professionals, and saw us roll out a unique strategy across a 3-month period surrounding the awards night, optimizing all social media outlets to increase our 2013 figure of 245,000 exposures (at the time the biggest social media audience for a UK events industry awards) to a mind-boggling 7.4 million exposures. This year, our strategy promises to deliver the same social media exposures statistic, if not greater! No other industry awards has a greater engagement. You have been warned!

Below are listed the two-tier sponsor packages available and respective coverage that you will receive:
