wellness-in-events-new-approach-at-Regent's-Events

Wellness in events is today a key component and delegate expectations show an increasing demand forย  well thought out wellness content and fresh ideas. Central London venue Regentโ€™s Events has announced the launch of an innovative, new wellness daily delegate rate (DDR) package, designed to reimagine the traditional delegate experience.ย 

Created in collaboration with wellness event specialists Be In Your Element and in-house caterers Houston & Hawkes, the new package aims to enhance delegate wellbeing and engagement, through a unique offering of relaxation and challenged-based activities.

Wellness in events expectations are evolving

A recent survey conducted by Regentโ€™s Events found that 58% of attendees prioritise comfort at events, while 42% seek experiences that push them beyond their comfort zones. In response, the new wellness DDR package allows delegates to tailor their day, combining wellness activities with interactive challenges that encourage creativity, teamwork, and personal growth.

Delegates can choose from traditional wellness options, from guided meditation in the venues tranquil Secret Garden, scenic walks around the five acres of lawns or surrounding Regentโ€™s Park, to sound baths and breath work classes. For those looking to push themselves out of their comfort zone, bold challenges include Lego walking or fire walking. There are also activities such as rap yoga on offer – this puts an exciting spin on a classic with a mashup of energising hip-hop beats and peaceful poses.

Regent’s Park wellness in events packages cater for all

The package includes access to Herringham Hall, an indoor space full of period charm, featuring high ceilings, beautiful solid wood flooring and grand arch windows overlooking the grounds. With a capacity of up to 120 guests, it serves as the ideal venue for meetings, conferences, team building days, celebrations and more.

Throughout the day, exciting wellness-focused catering options will be provided by award-winning in-house caterers, Houston & Hawkes. With a brand-new wellness menu designed to coincide with the launch of the new package, guests can expect to enjoy a combination of vibrant salads with a balance of both traditional options, such as carrot, potato salad and pomegranates, as well as exciting new choices such as chickpea paprika chaat, candied yam and pine nut tabbouleh.

Speaking on the launch of the new package, Rafael Azzopardi, Head of Events at Regentโ€™s, said:

โ€œIn the fast-changing world of events, understanding delegatesโ€™ needs has never been more important. Our recent survey showed a clear split between what our attendees found important when attending events at Regents, highlighting that wellness can mean different things to different people. Our one-of-a-kind Wellness DDR supports both approaches to wellness, catering to the different emotional and psychological needs of our audience by broadening the choice of activities and food on offer.โ€

Speaking on the importance of wellness in events, Lucy Eden, founder of Be In Your Element, said:

โ€œThis survey, alongside our own research, highlights a growing demand for experience-led activities at events. Wellness cannot have a one-size-fits-all approach to events. Itโ€™s all about how we can blend these different needs together to design great events that bring out the best in people โ€“ whether that means taking part in comfortable and quiet wellness pursuits or more collaborative and active wellness activities that challenge and engage.โ€
