EventCity, the North’s largest, fully flexible blank canvas exhibition, and multipurpose event venue, has appointed PR Communications agency, Rule 5 to support its growth strategy for 2019.
The agency, based in Arrive, MediaCityUK’s new leading-edge office space, will work with EventCity to promote the venue’s capability as both the largest and most accessible venue of its type, in the North of England. EventCity offers conference and exhibition organisers over 28,000 m2 of versatile space and is located just minutes away from the M60, within one of the greatest leisure and retail destinations in the UK – TraffordCity, which sees the arrival of the Metrolink in early 2020 which will connect the venue to the city centre in just 15 minutes.
Simon Jones, Sales Director of EventCity, commented: “Rule 5’s strong reputation in the communications industry really stood out to us. This year will be a really busy year for us and we are excited to be working with the team at Rule 5 to build on the business profile.”
Rule 5 Founding Director, Rob Brown, added: “As the North’s leading exhibition, event and multipurpose venue, EventCity is already well-recognised so we’ll be working with the team to extend their reputation across the region and nationally.”
Rule 5 specialises in PR and digital communications and has clients in the destination, leisure, media, sport, food and lifestyle sectors.
