Corporate Hospitality

Corporate hospitality - a great day out

Team building, networking and socialising are vital for companies. What better place to choose for time-out from the office than the largest, most sociable pub in the world?

The Great British Beer Festival offers a unique opportunity to socialise with work colleagues or clients under the roof of the 'world's biggest local', which is held at London's Earls Court.

This annual celebration brings together over 450 handpicked real ales, including Britain's best-known beers and delicious rare ales from some of the UK's smallest microbreweries. The range incorporates specialities such as tasty wheat beers, moreish bitters, bottled beers, cider, perry and beers from around the world including real lagers from Europe and North America. Tutored beer tastings hosted by one of our beer experts can be arranged for those with a thirst for knowledge as well as fine ale.

But it's not just a beer drinker's paradise, the Festival includes food stalls and there's plenty of entertainment ranging from pub quizzes, roving entertainers, traditional pub games, live music tombolas and auctions.

The live music on offer this year includes:

  • Chaminade String Quartet

  • Oysterband
  • Peter Knight's Gigspanner
