We are excited to host you again! While planning ahead for what your future events might look like, we want you to know that we are here as your partner in this process. Our recovery plan includes sanitation practices, socially distanced layouts, food and beverage service modifications and attendee behavior and flow recommendations. We understand that your event may not look like it has in the past. That's okay. We will get through this together. Here's why continuing with your booked event, or deciding on the Greater Richmond Convention Center as your next venue, is the right move:
- Spread Your Wings
- The GRCC is the largest meeting and exhibition facility in Virginia
- We have the extra space you may need to accommodate your modified event
- Our facility is fully refreshed with new paint, tile, woodwork, lighting and art for the enjoyment of your attendees
- Renovated spaces include the Food Court and Executive Lounge (former Business Center)
- Sanitation Practices
- Our Housekeeping Team will increase their visits to your event spaces
- Increased number of hand sanitizer stations located throughout the facility
- More frequent sanitizing of door handles, checking soap and paper product levels and trash pulls
- Schedule extra time between sessions to allow for more frequent cleaning
- Think about offering face masks at the registration desk
- Food & Beverage Service Modifications
- Fewer guests per banquet table
- Increased social distancing at buffet and break stations
- More gloved service from Aramark staff, less self-serve (high-touch) options
- You'll find attendants wearing personal protective gear (face masks & gloves) for the protection of your guests
- Socially-Distanced Layout Options
- Work with your Event Manager, or Sales Manager, to discuss your new layout vision and goals
- Receive a thoughtful response based on industry best practices, Fire Code and Government agency recommendations
- Discuss attendee traffic flow, one-way aisles, more time between sessions, split sessions and more
-
Think about broadcasting your main speaker session to satellite rooms to allow for more distancing, and increase attendee comfort
These are a few of the practices we're implementing to ensure that our guests have the best experience possible when we open our doors again. Let's collaborate on your plan and get back to the business of gathering!
