Oxford
Often referred to a the "city of dreaming spires", Oxford is home to one of the most famous universities in the world. The university also provides outstanding conference facilities in an environment with a great deal of character and much to offer the delegate visiting Oxford.
The Pitt Rivers Museum has a great deal of interest to offer visitors, with a focus on anthropology and world archaeology.
There is a great deal of evening entertainment to be had in the city, with a good range of bars, restaurants and clubs and a variety of accommodation throughout Oxford.
Oxford symbolises 'real England' more than almost any other town or city in the country. Known as the ‘City of Dreaming Spires’, it is world famous as a University town and is blessed with countless original buildings and features from the last 1000 years. These days, however, it is a thriving cosmopolitan town with high tech commercial industry sitting side by side with the academic culture.
With companies eager to lap up the city’s authentically English collegiate atmosphere, it's become a major destination for corporate events, conferences and business meetings of all sizes. With beautiful venues such as Blenheim Palace and Eynsham Hall in the surrounding area, you have the option of splendour for your corporate event or conference, or the University itself provides fantastic facilities, as well as the host of other venues and purpose built conference facilities.

Even the most spectacular themed parties start off as a blank canvas and imaginative draping is usually the first step in turning a nondescript space into something colourful, inviting, warm and most importantly, unique.
Black draping with twinkling LED stars shining through create a dramatic, opulent feel whilst cityscapes or woodland scene backdrops will add a further depth to a theme.
Sourcing only the very best in entertainment choose from live music, dance performances, character actors and magicians to complement a theme.
A string quarter at the reception will create a sense of grandeur whilst jazz musicians will transport guests to eras past. Invite a comical Mad Hatter or stilt walking Ice Queen to create a fantastical feel to the party.
The simplest of elements can be the most effective in the hands of our expert lighting team. Using different coloured par-can lights transforms the whole appearance of a venue. Dramatic contrasts can be created for a ‘Fire and Ice’ theme by turning half of the room red whilst special effects lighting can bathe guests in a shimmering blue for the perfect under-the-sea effect. Image-based lighting called gobos can be projected onto different points throughout the room to enable guests to follow the Cheshire cat around wonderland or avoid the policeman’s search light at prohibition events.
A host of unique props are available which can be used to create dramatic and enchanting scenes; from life-sized Elvis figures to a lit up Welcome to Fabulous La Vegas sign; giant fire breathing dragons to ornate golden palm trees.
Theme-Works will also commission local artists to create bespoke props for an event.
Special effects enhance a party adding a further dimension to the theming.
Watch faces light up as snowflakes float around the room or dramatic dry ice emphasises stark contrast at a 'Fire and Ice' event. Bubbles wafting through the air give a touch of frivolity and fun to an event; teasing guests as they try to resist the temptation to burst them.
Themed table centres create an instant visual impact whilst continuing to bring life to an event throughout the meal and afterwards as guest relax with friends over coffee.
A range of options are available including light globes that change colour to suit the theme, delicate arrangements or something a little more extravagant.
