03 Things To Consider

Selecting the right conference venue can have a significant impact on the success of your event. Whether you're planning a board meeting, training session or large-scale conference, it's worth considering a number of practical factors before making your final decision.


Accessibility

Exeter is well connected by road, rail and air, making it an excellent destination for delegates travelling from across the UK. Consider venues close to the M5, Exeter St David's Station or Exeter Airport if your attendees are travelling from further afield.


Capacity & Layout

Think carefully about your delegate numbers and the format of your event. The best conference venues offer flexible layouts, breakout rooms and exhibition space that can adapt to keynote presentations, networking sessions and workshops.


Technology & AV

Reliable Wi-Fi, presentation screens, sound systems and hybrid event capabilities are now essential for many conferences. Check what equipment is included within the venue hire and whether technical support is available on the day.


Catering & Refreshments

Good food and drink can make a lasting impression on delegates. Many Exeter conference venues offer day delegate packages, private dining options and bespoke catering, so ensure the menu and service style match the expectations of your event.


Parking & Accommodation

If delegates are travelling by car or staying overnight, consider venues with ample parking and nearby accommodation. Many of Exeter's leading conference venues offer on-site parking or are located close to hotels and public transport links, making attendance straightforward for local and national guests alike.


Our venue collections are independently curated by the Match My Venue team based on location, facilities, flexibility and suitability for corporate events.
