“Thank you for being our partner in pulling off a very successful event for Microsoft. I had plenty of positive feedback on the venue and the conferencing team at Riversands was attentive and went the extra mile”
“The Canvas Riversands was a fresh, new venue for our inaugural Talent Talks Conference in June. Delegates loved the easy parking, the open spacious atmosphere, the relaxed ambience and especially the food. The catering team was flexible and created a menu to our specific requests and went the extra mile to ensure that quality and presentation was top class. The venue lent itself to auditorium style and the option of more relaxed, interactive sessions. This will definitely be my venue of choice in the future”
