When Bay of Plenty businesses host events, they host them at Trustpower Baypark.
Meetings, conferences, workshops, forums, symposiums, annual awards evenings, AGMs – there are rooms and spaces specifically designed to suit every type of event imaginable.
There is onsite catering to keep everyone well fed and watered throughout, there are audio visual experts on hand with top-of-the-range media equipment, and there are experienced event staff who will help every step of the way.
Kristin Bainbridge from Realty Group organised three different events at Trustpower Baypark in 2022 – the EVES annual conference, the EVES annual awards evening, and the Bayleys annual awards evening.
She was ecstatic with the end result and the contribution of the Baypark events team.
“I know that without the world-class experience and professionalism from everybody at Baypark these events would not have been the success they were,” Bainbridge said.
“I had a vision of what these three events needed to be, and when I walked into the conference space the night before the events I was completely blown away.”
She said the catering was “super impressive” and the level of customer service “impeccable”.
“I can still remember the guy with the stools wandering in with a smile when we needed them at short notice, everything was so easy,” Bainbridge said.
“No request I had was a problem and everyone pitched in and helped, even those team members on the day that I didn’t know.”
