This year the National Outdoor Events Association (NOEA), joined forces with The Showman's Show and Qdos Event Hire to celebrate their 45th, 40th, and 15th year anniversaries respectfully, in what it branded as the Event 100 Club.
The activation took form on the Qdos stand where 100 years of events and event experience was brought to life through photography, quotes, timelines and video, all in an exhibition style setting. Within the space, NOEA curated a series of events and meetings; from the convening of the UK Events board to a 'one year on' meetup of the Event Medical Association, which launched at the show this time last year.
NOEA, Qdos, and The Showman's Show also used the activation to host a celebratory networking event during the show, where members, colleagues and friends were invited to raise a toast to 100 years of these impressive organisations.
NOEA's own Awards and Convention will take place 26th November, again providing a meeting and celebratory occasion for the outdoor events sector. The day, which will also see representatives from Qdos and the Showman's Show back again, will provide a learning, education, and networking opportunity for the industry, with the evening Awards there to reward another year of outstanding events, and the many people and businesses that make them happen.
