Carrie’s expert take

“We The Curious is a brilliant option when you want delegates to do more than simply sit in a conference room all day. You can run the main conference or meeting upstairs and then bring the science centre into the event, whether that’s exploring the interactive exhibits, using the Planetarium or finishing with drinks overlooking Bristol Harbourside. I’d particularly put it forward for company away days and conferences where keeping people engaged is a big part of the brief.”

Best for:

Conferences, company away days, product launches, awards, dinners, networking events, presentations and corporate parties.

Standout:

The opportunity to incorporate interactive science exhibits and the UK’s only 3D Planetarium gives organisers some fantastic ways to make an event more memorable.

Good to know:

The Rosalind Franklin Room is the largest indoor event space with private terraces overlooking Millennium Square, Bristol Harbourside and Bristol Cathedral.
