What's Floating Around Cloud 9? 4 April 2016



Welcome to another week at Cloud 9 Towers and we can't quite believe that April has come around so quickly - at this rate it will be Christmas before we know it!  We are still very busy as always and this month see's us at the Midlands Media Awards for Students with the Birmingham Press Club, attending CHS in Leeds and gearing up for the CHS Awards in Manchester.

Whilst we are on the subject of the CHS Awards, we are pleased to be working with GTAssociates who are kindly sponsoring one of the categories at the awards, and we are delighted to welcome a guest blog from them this week, all about the magic of Venice, Capri and the Amalfi Coast.


"GTAssociates and our DMC family love working with Cloud 9 and, below, share an example of what you may do in Italy.


 
“Venice is like eating an entire box of chocolate liqueurs in one go.”  Truman Capote

Venice is a city of lavish fantasy; arguably the most beautiful city in the world. A city to spellbind your audience be it for Corporate meetings, Incentive travel, Conferences or other Events. Venice defies both the seas and description while its age defying beauty captures every visitor’s imagination.

Venice was created more than 1,000 years ago by men who dared defy the sea: erecting their splendid palaces and churches on mud banks in a swampy and treacherous lagoon. For centuries Venice was the mistress of trade between Europe and the Orient. Today Venice is a mistress of art, historic architecture and romance.

A beguiling place to meet. A master of Meetings and Incentive programmes. Sunlight shimmers and silvery mist softens every perspective here so small wonder the city was renowned during the Renaissance for its artists’ rendering of colour. Venice is full of secrets, ineffably romantic and an exotic mélange of Byzantine, Gothic, and Renaissance styles.

"You may have the universe if I may have Italy" Giuseppe Verdi

Capri & Amalfi Coast: Let this alluring Land of The Sirens lure you to amazing VIP Travel Incentives and Board Meetings. According to Homer The Sirens lured you onto the rocks. Nowadays with Capri & the Amalfi coast you are “lost” only in the sense you will be at a loss to choose where to hold your Event. 

Capri: Carefree, captivating and romantic. Beautiful beaches, amazing rock formations, luxurious hotels, nightlife, a sailing regatta in May, swimming marathon, summer classical music concerts and an International Folklore Festival, the Capri film festival in December and to end the year a spectacular fireworks display in La Piazzetta on New Year’s Eve. 

Capri an island loved by artists, writers, the rich and famous. Capri entertains and enchants so entertain and enchant your top performers or top clients with a travel Incentive to Capri."

Our thanks for a great insight in to the wonders of Italy and please do let us know if you have any requests as we would be delighted, along with GTAssociates to get a proposal over to you. Have a great week all!
