We are delighted to share this video from our festive industry lunch earlier this month, captured by CCD Hospitality.

Hosting this industry lunch was an opportunity to showcase our new seasonal menu and share it with our amazing partners and friends.

From the food on the table to the atmosphere in the room, the experience provided a warm and relaxed setting for celebrating great partnerships.

Our annual Christmas lunch is always a lovely reminder of what makes The CCD work so well - our people. Our teams were treated to a beautiful Christmas dinner prepared by CCD Hospitality and our senior managers stepped in as the servers.

This is one of our favourite days of the year, a chance to step away from the busy pace of the events world and catch up with colleagues across the building.

Thanks to the teams behind the scenes who made it happen and to everyone who joined us. Moments like this help keep us connected as we head towards a busy year ahead.

Christmas is about bringing people together and, at The CCD, that’s what we do best. It’s the people who make our venue truly special and create those unforgettable experiences.

This Christmas, we’re sharing a glimpse of what goes on behind the scenes and showcasing just some of the people behind the sparkle.

Today we welcomed many familiar faces to The CCD for our annual festive lunch. This event brings our community together and celebrates those who help us attract international events to Dublin each year. It is a warm moment to reconnect, share stories and recognise the commitment behind every gathering in our building.

Executive Head Chef Lenny Fearon also hosted a cooking demonstration, adding to the occasion and showing how our spaces and our team can adapt to create something memorable. It offers a glimpse of the care and craft that shape each event at The CCD.

We are thankful for the support of those whose insight and dedication help bring lasting value to Dublin. We are grateful to work alongside them and look forward to the opportunities ahead.

At The CCD we are used to welcoming events one after another, and the past few weeks brought a run that was especially active.

Within a seven day stretch, we hosted 15 events, which brought up to 22,000 people through our doors in one week.

None of this would have been possible without the amazing teams we have here both front of house both front and back of house. Thank you to all of the teams who work hard all year round to deliver these exceptional experiences for our clients and delegates.

Check out some of the impressive numbers below from one of the busiest weeks of 2025.

The best events aren’t just well organised, they make people feel welcomed, connected and cared for.

This article from PCMA explores how corporate events can do this successfully, with ideas that associations and not-for-profits also might find useful for their own events. At The CCD, we take the same approach. Our flexible spaces, thoughtful touches and dedicated team ensure every event works for the people, not just the logistics.

Comfort, connection and creativity can transform an event from something people attend to something they remember. Reach out to us to see how we can support you in designing experiences that leave a lasting impact.

Sure, most corporate events have a bigger budget than association conferences. But what differentiates the best corporate events isn’t their scale or spend — it’s the thinking behind them.
