Olympia Events has announced the appointment of Carlo Zoccali as its new Event Operations Director, adding another highly experienced industry professional to the leadership team behind Olympia's £1.3 billion transformation.

With more than 20 years' experience across the events, exhibitions, conference and sports sectors, Carlo joins Olympia following senior operational and commercial roles at organisations including Fully Charged Show, Farnborough International Exhibition & Conference Centre and Arsenal Football Club.

His appointment comes at a significant time for Olympia as the destination continues to welcome major new openings, including the recently launched Hyatt Regency London Olympia, British Airways ARC and the new International Convention Centre. Carlo will oversee event operations across Olympia's heritage exhibition halls, the International Convention Centre (ICC) and The Addison premium lounge, helping to deliver a seamless experience for organisers and delegates alike.

For event organisers, appointments like this are about much more than a change in personnel. As Olympia continues its transformation into one of Europe's leading destinations for conferences, exhibitions and live events, investing in experienced operational leadership is a clear commitment to delivering world-class events alongside world-class facilities.

Carlo's appointment is the latest in a series of senior leadership announcements at Olympia, reflecting the venue's continued investment in both its people and its long-term vision as one of the UK's premier event destinations.
