What do you do when you want to give 400 of your customers a gala night they won't forget?
Stockland Jesmond, Glendale and Green Hills Shopping Centres held their annual Retail Awards Night for 400 of their retailers in Newcastle in December, and wanted to give them an experience that was unique, interactive, fun.
They chose A Meeting with Murder™ and kicked off the night from pre -dinner drinks, weaving the colour and cabaret entertainment amongst the night, along with their awards presentations.
By the end of the evening the group was grooving, with salsa dancing led by Guido, the latin American dance instructor encouraging big numbers up to the dance floor.
As is typical of A Meeting with Murder, guests found their own level of involvement, ranging from those who prefered to sit back and enjoy the show, to those who went all out to solve the murder.
The cast of 20 actors created a colourful spectacle, and really help to draw people out of themselves so that the self consciousness often found in a customer event was overcome quickly.
With guests more comfortable relaxing and having a laugh with others, the event proved perfect for a gala client evening.
Gillian Smith co-ordinated the event for Stockland, and had this to say.
"We had heard how well A Meeting with Murder™ worked for another big group. I knew then that it would be perfect for our retailers. DaPo Conference Events did a fantastic job working closely with us in the planning phase, and their delivery of the event on the night was really professional. Our group had a ball, and the feedback after the event is all we had hoped for and more. I would recommend this event for anyone planning a gala customer or retail event."
