Events are big business and part of our everyday lives. The UK’s event industry is estimated to be worth £70 billion in direct spend, accounting for over 50% of the UK visitor economy. Events lead to the employment of over 700,000 people from apprenticeship level upwards. Event Planning can help you learn about this dynamic industry and understand what it takes to put on a successful event.
