The landscape of corporate events is changing. There is more of an emphasis on the experience and how attendees feel at the end of the event which is becoming more and more prevalent. Corporate events are no longer three-course meals and a DJ until midnight. They’re more about extraordinary themed décor, exquisite food experiences, branded cocktails and fantastic, unique entertainment.
With 11 years in the event industry, The Jazz Cafe knows exactly how to create an amazing event experience. Whether you’re organising your company’s annual awards gala or searching for a venue to host your clients, The Jazz Cafe can step up and host an incredible event that your attendees will be talking about for months.
Firstly, our venue is totally unique, being situated at the Select Car Leasing Stadium and offers organisers a completely blank canvas which is great if you want to brand the space and/or hire a décor company to dress the venue. We also have the capacity for up to 250 guests making us suitable for both smaller and larger events alike.
When it comes to food, we have a strong philosophy that we like to follow. Our ingredients are all locally sourced and our chefs cook all of our dishes from scratch enabling us to be able to totally flexible with our menus and also accurate about our allergens when it comes to your guests dietary and allergy requirements.
Now, when it comes to entertainment, it comes as no surprise that we have a large range of bands and DJs on our books that we can recommend. All of these acts regularly play the venue, so they know how everything works. Alternatively, you are welcome to bring in your own entertainment; we don’t have many rules, we just require a copy of their Public Liability Certificate and their PAT Testing documentation. In addition to a built-in stage and dancefloor area, we are also privileged to have own projector, screen and PA system which you would be welcome to use for your event.
Lastly, we have a wonderful working relationship with neighbouring 4* hotel, voco Reading, who offers our guests discounted accommodation rates. These rates are subject to availability and at the discretion of the hotel. For those local to the venue, and who perhaps choose to drive, we have complimentary, onsite parking available.
