Events
Big Ideas. Brilliant Experiences. Seamlessly Delivered.
Looking for an event that gets people talking?
At Mercury, we create and deliver memorable events for businesses, organisations and communities across the UK. From a Christmas light switch-on that brings a town centre together to an intimate stakeholder event, awards evening, corporate celebration or full seasonal programme, we bring the ideas, creativity and experience to make it happen.
And despite our name, we’re definitely not limited to retail.
We work with shopping centres, retail parks, BIDs, property developers, schools, housing associations, bars, restaurants and organisations across a wide range of sectors.
If you’ve got an audience to engage, we’ve got ideas to bring them together.
From an Idea to the Big Day
You might come to us with a fully formed brief. You might have a date in the diary and absolutely no idea what to do with it.
Either works.
Our team can support the entire process, from developing the initial concept and managing budgets to sourcing suppliers, coordinating logistics, creating promotional materials and delivering the event itself.
We take care of the details behind the scenes so that, when the day arrives, you can concentrate on enjoying the result.
What Kind of Events Do We Deliver?
Seasonal Events
Christmas, Easter, Halloween, summer, half-term and everything in between. We develop creative seasonal concepts designed around your audience, objectives, location and budget.
Community Events
Events that create connections and give people a reason to come together. From family activities and workshops to community celebrations and locally focused initiatives, we create experiences with genuine relevance.
Christmas Light Switch-Ons & Grottos
From the first festive idea through to the big switch-on, we can manage entertainment, performers, staging, production, grotto experiences, suppliers, creative, promotion and on-the-day delivery.
Town Centre & Stakeholder Events
We work with BIDs, property teams, local organisations and other stakeholders to create events that showcase places, strengthen relationships and engage local communities and businesses.
Corporate Events
Team celebrations, company milestones, launches, networking events, conferences and client events – professionally planned and delivered around your business and objectives.
Awards & Celebrations
From awards ceremonies and gala evenings to business celebrations and milestone events, we can help develop the concept and manage the details required to create an occasion people remember.
Something Completely Different?
Even better.
Not every event fits neatly into a category, and some of our best ideas start with an unusual brief. Tell us what you’re trying to achieve and we’ll help turn it into an experience.
More Than Event Management
A great event doesn’t start when the doors open – and its impact shouldn’t end when they close.
Because Mercury brings together events, communications, design and digital expertise under one roof, we can support the entire campaign surrounding your event too.
That can include:
- Event concept and creative development
- Event branding and graphic design
- Social media and content
- Email marketing
- Websites and landing pages
- Posters, signage and promotional materials
- Photography and content capture
- Supplier sourcing and management
- Event logistics and on-site coordination
It means your event and the marketing around it work together as one joined-up campaign.
Your Event. Your Audience. Your Objectives.
We don’t believe in pulling the same event concept off the shelf and using it again and again.
Every brief starts with understanding what you want the event to achieve, who you want to reach and what will genuinely engage them. From there, we build an approach around your audience, location, budget and objectives.
You can bring us in to manage the entire project or simply the parts where you need additional expertise.
One event. A full programme. Or simply an extra pair of experienced hands – we flex around you.
Don't Be Thrown Off by Our Name.
Retail is part of our heritage and we’ve spent years delivering events for shopping centres and retail destinations across the UK.
But our experience goes far beyond retail.
BIDs. Property developers. Schools. Housing associations. Bars. Restaurants. Corporate businesses. Community organisations.
No business is off limits and no brief is too unusual to start a conversation.
