Our membership of trade associations is a testament to GL events UK’s commitment to quality service and craftsmanship. But we don’t stop there – we see it as our responsibility to secure the most commercially-sound future possible for our industry, which is why we became the National Outdoor Events Association’s first Futures Supporter.
