- Hold the corporate event midweek and outside peak conference season for better venue rates
Before you book
- Ask how the corporate event planner charges and whether supplier commissions are passed on

- Confirm who holds venue licences and handles data protection for delegate registration under UK GDPR
- Agree deliverables, payment stages and cancellation terms in writing
Corporate Event Planner cost: questions people ask
No UK publisher sets out a readable price range for corporate event planning, so fees vary widely by agency and brief. Ask two or three agencies for a written proposal setting out their fee model and what it covers.
Three to twelve months for conferences and large dinners; smaller team events can be arranged in a few weeks.
Registration data is personal data under UK GDPR, so the agency and your company should agree who controls it, how it is stored and when it is deleted.
Most corporate event planners manage production suppliers, though the AV and streaming costs are added to the budget.
Venue hire, catering, AV production, speaker fees, delegate travel and VAT are commonly separate.
They are Locufy guide prices for the UK. No readable UK publisher prices corporate event planning per event, so ask two or three agencies for a written proposal and compare them like for like.
