What our clients say

Just want to say a huge thank you to your team for our last event. They were excellent to work with, really accommodating and very professional
Major Agritec Publisher
Just wanted to say a very big thank you for the great job over the past few days. Feedback from the bosses was that the setup was very professional and allowed a seamless flow to the days proceedings (which I echo also). So many thanks for making the process pain free for Mat and me and hope to work with you again in the near future.

Your professionalism, dedication and support was a great accompaniment to what was a great evening. I really hope you would be willing to support the work of the Hospice again at a similar event in the future

Major Health Charity
I just wanted to drop you an email to say thanks again to you and your event team, for the help this week at the fund raising conference. As ever the AV side of things was faultless, so thanks again – we really do appreciate it
Cancer Care Charity
I would just like to say huge “thank you” to you and your team for the excellent service you provided at our Environmental 2020 Awards. I was absolutely thrilled with the way it looked and the guys that were there on the day were amazing, they worked really hard to get everything ready in time, very professional and two of the nicest guys I have ever met. Nothing was too much trouble for them, they were so helpful it was untrue.
Thermotechnology Industry PA to Director of Marketing & Technical Support
Post event we are feeling very satisfied that we all delivered for the client last week was a slick professional – and inspired conference. The general feedback from our client has been excellent, which is of course what we all aim for. I am also delighted to say that our first experience of working with your company has been a good one, so please pass on our thanks to your team. I hope the feeling was mutual and that our constant pedantic requests weren’t too irritating – if they were – you certainly didn’t show it but rather smiled and help us achieve the standard of detail we so aspire to, so a big thank you for that.
Conference Agency Educational conference
I have total confidence in Mercian Events, their experience, skill and commitment to running flawless events are clear to all who use them. I have worked with several members of their event team over the past few years and would be reticence to use anyone else to handle my events.
