AEO Excellence Awards       (Industry)


A healthy spectrum of the event industry converged at the AEO Excellence Awards 08, on Wednesday 4 June at London's Earls Court 2
(pictured below). The venue was transformed into a stylish bar and stunning dining room, with a gala lunch for over 1,200 guests provided by Leith’s. The awards were presented by comedian Rob Brydon.



“The AEO Excellence Awards are the biggest party in the industry and this year’s event recognised the achievements in every area, from organisers to venues to suppliers. EC&O Venues, Leith’s, Beyond Media Services, and all our other event partners and supporters really pushed the boat out to deliver a stunning event this year. Congratulations to all the winners.”
