"We would like to thank you once again, as well as all the staff who worked on our Annual Convention. There were a number of positive points I would like to mention; not least the constant support and help, both before and during the event. We particularly appreciated the friendly contact and exchanges, as well as your advice, availability and flexibility. On the day of the event, all the technical, security and catering staff were really welcoming and helpful. The choice of service providers, Diverty Event and Fanfare Express, was excellent.
The service quality was fantastic and the staff were really dynamic, which helped to create and maintain a great atmosphere for our teams throughout the day! The speech given by Pierre Lassus's was perfect for our project. His story was really an inspiration for everyone, especially for our managers. The catering was completely in line with our expectations and, as you noted, that was a key point for us! 😉The photography service was also really good. We've just got the official photos back and we're happy with them. All in all, it was a great success and a fantastic day for us. Marine, myself and the entire management team would like to thank you for making sure our convention was such a success."

"Thank you so much for your help in organising our annual convention. All our teams really enjoyed the event. The venue is very comfortable. The "rugby initiation" session was a big hit with the 24 brave men and women who took part, and everyone enjoyed discovering the history of the stadium during the guided tour! It was a really fun and original tour. Thanks again. Kind regards."

"The working relationship with the Matmut stadium teams (Capucine and Mélanie) was great. They met all our expectations and took care of all our different requests. On the day of the event, the production teams were always available and highly professional. The venue was perfectly suited to our event (car parking space available, located in Lyon). We would certain consider using the venue again for a future event."

"The contact with Marlène was great; she was really responsive and always understood our problems and requests. On site, Rémi was very helpful and the GL teams were extremely available and friendly. The day before final set-up, the teams anticipated the installation of the lighting and lifting the trussing into position so that the decorators could install fixtures and fittings ahead of schedule, which meant we could start rehearsals in good conditions at 4pm. The teams adapted quickly to some last-minute adjustments we wanted to make to the lighting garlands, which included a few small additions that were even not invoiced, so we were very grateful for that. Christophe did a top-notch job. Well done to Julia for responding to the customer's last-minute request concerning the stands for the exhibits. A great success! A big thank you to everyone!"

"For me the Lyon Convention Centre was the perfect place for the Exhibition. It was a positive event experience. The auditorium set-up was excellent and the exhibition hall made to measure. The audio-visual equipment was better than average. The feedback from exhibitors included positive comments about the organisation, audio-visual equipment, and successful interactions."

"This was the second time we had chosen to host our event at the Lyon Convention Centre, due to the quality of service. The forums are spacious, well-maintained, bright and very practical. The fact that there are restaurants and hotels close by is a real advantage. The convention centre's teams provided us with help and support throughout, so organising our event was stress free. The team is great and was always on hand to listen to what we needed. So, a big thank you to the team at the convention centre."

The spaces are magnificent and functional, and we had a lot of positive feedback about the venue. The team was responsive and really professional, and the coordination was impeccable. The location is fantastic, with the Park right next door, which people really appreciated. We would certainly do it all over again...! It was a great experience."
