⚽️ ☀️ With England reaching the Euros 2024 final, hospitality operators are preparing for what is set to be one of the busiest, bumper Sundays the industry has seen in recent years. As people flock to pubs, bars, and restaurants, hospitality operators have a unique opportunity to boost their future success by making the most out of every customer who walks through their doors. Research from CGA by NIQ highlights that showcasing sporting events can significantly boost customer spending and loyalty. Fans stay longer and engage more deeply when they can watch their favourite sports, providing venues with more than just a short-term surge. And it doesn’t just stop with the football. As the Paris Olympics kick off, Wimbledon comes to a dramatic conclusion, and the Paralympics get ready to commence, 2024’s ‘Bumper Summer of Sport’ is just getting started. To capitalise on this heightened footfall though, operators must have the right processes and technology in place. To help businesses understand what they need, our Co-Founder and Managing Director, Scott Muncaster, provided his insights for the latest edition of CLH News.

The Summer* of Sport is Here! 🌞🏅 With the kick-off of Euro 2024 just hours away, and events like the Olympics, Wimbledon, and The Open all taking place over the next couple of months, we know how vital sport is to the hospitality industry. Great facilities for watching sport can transform a venue into the go-to destination for customers and guests who can't attend the events in person. Whether it's a cosy pub showing football, a hotel offering an exclusive Olympics viewing experience, or a stylish roof terrace bar with big screens for Wimbledon, the right setup can be very appealing. Yet, how often do venues get it wrong by having the sound at the wrong volume, or by having the wrong TV package? Likewise, how does it make you feel when a pub that doesn't normally do table service actively offers it during busy sports events so that you don't miss a crucial moment? Simple gestures done right can make all the difference. At Halo, we’re passionate about helping hospitality venues really understand the customer journey so that they can confidently promote and deliver the very best experiences. We help our clients continuously improve their processes to ensure guest loyalty and drive revenue and profitability. *Although it really doesn't feel like Summer in the UK right now... #Euro2024 #ParisOlympics #Wimbledon #Hospitality #SummerOfSport #CustomerExperience

📢 Check out CARMA's latest Olympics 2024 Briefing! https://lnkd.in/eMixTxTW Here are some of my key takeaways: The Paris 2024 Olympics has highlighted the intricate relationship between major event sponsorships and urban dynamics. A notable example is Airbnb's sponsorship of the games, which, while boosting tourism and offering accommodations for countless visitors, has also sparked concerns about rising property prices. This issue has been particularly evident in cities like Paris and Barcelona, where protests have emerged in response to Airbnb's impact on housing affordability in recent months, and the Olympics reigniting this conversation. With a trip planned to Barcelona myself in the upcoming months, I think it's pertinent to be aware of this. As brands like Airbnb play a significant role in global events, it’s crucial to balance the benefits of increased visibility and economic impact with the social responsibilities tied to local communities. The ongoing discussions in cities like Paris and Barcelona, remind us that sponsors must carefully consider the broader implications of their involvement in such events, particularly concerning urban planning and affordability.

12 out of 10. I recommend. Our Olympics experience exceeded all expectations. Paris was stunning, the events were flawless, the transport was a cinch, and it was amazing to be a part of the drama and excitement of it. Paris put its best foot forward, showing its global guests an incredible time. It was so great that we are all in for LA28. If you caught the fever of the five rings and want to go to the next Olympics, I get it. And I can help. My five most important tips if you want to hit 2026 (Milano Cortino), 2028 (Los Angeles), or beyond: 1. Plan two years out or more if you can. 2. Sign up for official (event) ticket lotteries. 3. Get tickets for lesser-known and non-medal events (or splurge and go all in on dramatic finals). 4. Book your lodging a year or more in advance. Expect to prepay in full. 5. Finally, read and save my updated all-points guide below that shares costs (our actual Paris 2024 spending), planning timelines, and answers all the questions. I always assumed going to the Olympics was out of reach, an exclusive global event only for people with big budgets and even bigger connections. We have neither. Instead, I am a detailed planner, figuring out how to make it work for a non-absurd cost, and I dropped all the info in my guide. Check it out below. https://lnkd.in/ge7DtmHN
