Harrogate Conference Scene is a high quality brochure style restaurant, bar and nightclub guide aimed at gaining business for advertisers by targeting conference and exhibition visitors to the town's International Centre.

Since launch in August 2002, the magazine (currently booking for its 5th edition) has become a reliable piece of reference material for all associated with the exhibition and conference trade in the town, and most importantly has delivered thousands of additional customers to advertisers. Currently the publication enjoys an advertiser retention rate of over 90% which is sure testimony to the success enjoyed by those business that have selected Harrogate Conference Scene as their chosen method to reach the lucrative Conference delegate market.

30,000 copies of Harrogate Conference Scene are distributed over six months during conferences and exhibitions, and advertisers also benefit from exposure to over 6,000 delegates on the Conference Scene website at no extra cost. The magazine has improved distribution and is now delivered to delegates and visitors in the following ways:

By hand distribution

The publication is distributed by hand to conference delegates and exhibition visitors by a team of smart, prominently branded promotions staff at key events.

Conference Organisers

The magazine is distributed directly by many conference organisers to delegates, visitors, exhibitors and contractors at their events.

Tourist Information Centre & Hotels

The magazine has quickly become a favourite source of literature distributed via the Tourist Information Centre in the town. Due to demand, the magazine has also extended its distribution via the main hotels in the town. The publication is now stocked at The Old Swan, The Majestic, The Cedar Court, The Imperial, The Moat House, The Cairn, The Travel Lodge and The Swallow St George Hotels.

Via Internet & e-mail

In order to generate bookings and deliver information to delegates and visitors prior to their arrival, a web site (www.conferencescene.co.uk) has been developed that features every advertiser form the magazine at no extra cost. This web site is the most comprehensive guide to bars and restaurants in the town, and the address is used by conference organisers and is sent to hundreds of delegates each month.
