Event Details


The session will provide practical advice on how to:

  • turn subsidised arenas, theatres, music venues and conferences/ exhibition facilities into concession opportunities involving payments to public sector bodies;
  • attract private sector / support public sector investment into your facilities, and deliver projects that maximise outputs from existing public funding;
  • attract market-leading operators to improve the leisure and culture offer to local residents and attract new visitors to an area;
  • improve the financial performance of existing venues;
  • ensure that the operating model and terms of reference/ engagement are aligned with your priorities as the venue owner; and
  • maximise competition (and value) through a short and focussed procurement procedure alongside a subsidy control compliant legal structure.

The webinar will use anonymised examples from case studies of successfully completed projects as the backdrop to show what can be achieved.
