A huge thank you to everyone who attended our Venue Showcase event last Thursday! What a great start to March 🌤️✈️

We had a fantastic afternoon meeting new and existing clients, and we always love putting faces to the names of those we have many email conversations with😀.

A special note to Imperial War Museum Duxford for hosting this event. It was a great experience from such gracious hosts, and we must admit we really enjoyed having the opportunity to watch the sun set over the runway.

It was a pleasure to have so many of our venues in attendance, showcasing the unique and historic events spaces available across Cambridge.

Thank you also to Jen from 12 degrees Events & Team Building for sharing her top tips on hosting events in her fantastic talk.

We’ve had some lovely feedback already but if you want to share your thoughts or have any questions regarding this event, even if you did not manage to attend, please do not hesitate to get in contact with us at enquiries@meet-cambridge.

2025 Recap 💫

It's been a sensational year for Meet Cambridge. We've championed Cambridge both near and far, becoming international jet setters, undergoing team changes, and meeting incredible clients along the way. We even had time for a trip down to sunny Brighton!

We want to say a huge thank you to our clients and venues for the amazing support we've had this year. 2025 wouldn't have been the same without you! Here's a behind the scenes look at some of what we've been up to this year:
