Genero Group & Cardiff Rugby
We are thrilled to confirm we are extending our long-term partnership with Cardiff Rugby for another 3 years until 2026, making our working relationship span well over a decade now, with the hope to support for many more to come.
Although Genero Group produce events Nationally, there is something special about supporting local Welsh rugby, the match days and atmosphere they bring are always great to be a part of too.
“Our services vary from seamless audio and visual support, impactful set and stage design, impressive speaker bookings, and technical support, providing stress-free solutions while retaining creative flair. We have been proud to work with Cardiff for more than a decade professionally but that intrinsic link goes much deeper with many of the team, including myself, lifelong supports. We are passionate about the club and hope to support Cardiff and the Arms Park for many years to come.” - Pete Leckie, Managing Director at Genero Group.
It’s an honour to be able to support the Blue and the Blacks through match day event services including hospitality and event production, working at Arms Park is always a pleasure.
Cardiff Rugby Chief Operating Officer, Rhys Blumberg, said: “We could not be happier to extend our partnership with Genero for another three years. Not only are they a market leading company within the events and production industry but they are passionate about the club and always go above and beyond.
“They are an invaluable part of our wider Cardiff Rugby family, allowing us to stage top class events each and every year, whether in one of the Arms Park lounges, the hugely popular marquee or at other venues we utilise. The service is always fast, professional and consumer-driven. We look forward to continuing our partnership with Genero and continuing to innovate in this space.”
2023 Brings the Triumphant Return of In-Person Events
2022 saw the first full year of in-person events when the current PM announced in February that from the 24th there will be no further restrictions and testing for the COVID-19 virus. So now that we have returned to normality post pandemic, it presents the perfect opportunity to celebrate the return of the events industry as it adapted to survive in the face of a global pandemic.
So, let’s take a look at what’s changed since the start of the pandemic and why this is great news for our clients and event venue partners alike.
