Credit Week

As a multi-day event spanning a variety of spaces throughout the resort, Credit Week posed an imposing logistical challenge for our Events team.

Being a premier networking function, gathering some of the most accredited individuals from throughout the credit and financial sector, the event required a great deal of versatility to meet the varied demands of delegates from dozens of companies. From rooftop garden parties, teambuilding on the Topracer course and private bar receptions for selected guests – the highest standard of organisation and service was required to make the event a success.

With an exhibition in the hundreds topped off with a gala dinner for over half a thousand delegates, the event left an impressive mark with Shard Financial Media – who have since chosen Celtic Manor Resort again as their venue for the conference in subsequent years.

Credit Week Celtic Manor

Shard Financial Testimonial:

“Celtic Manor proved to be an excellent venue for our Credit Week debut. Its flexibility enabled us to create a destination event that offered our delegates a diverse and well-structured experience over three days.

From the conference and exhibition during the day to the Garden Party on the terrace, as well as networking activities like a golf day on the Twenty Ten Course and TopTracer driving range packages, the venue catered to a range of interests.

Hosting the Awards in multiple locations provided variety and ensured the event felt dynamic rather than confined to a single space. The Celtic Manor team delivered great hospitality and quality customer service throughout.

– Bronwyn Gahagan, Senior Event Manager
