Crown Group named sole hospitality provider at Leander Club at Henley Royal Regatta

The Crown Group has been named as the sole hospitality provider at Leander Club at the Henley Royal Regatta for a third consecutive year.

Its Seasoned Events, Piggotts, Event Hire Company and Jobs 2 Go businesses will supply hospitality services for athletes, members and corporate guests at the five-day annual event, which will run from 27 June to 1 July.

The Seasoned team, led by executive chef Adrian Booth, will feed more than 1,200 people each day in seven locations, offering breakfasts, four-course sit-down lunches, afternoon teas, a barbecue, three-course dinners and a river-view bar overlooking the rowing.

Charles Beer, managing partner, Crown Group, said: "This prestigious event is internationally acclaimed and we are pleased that we have again been chosen to deliver our services at what is one of the major dates in the social calendar."

Paul Budd, general manager, Leander Club, said: "The core team at Crown Group have built a sound understanding of the complex needs of Leander Club at Henley Royal.

"They empathise with the members and their guests and we work as one to deliver excellence on and off the water."

Marquee provider Piggotts will house guests under multiple marquee complexes, while Jobs 2 Go will provide staffing solutions, including 150 front and back-of-house staff each day. The Event Hire Company will provide tables and chairs across the multiple locations.

Leander Club is the most prestigious and successful rowing club in the world, with 99 Olympic medals won by its members over the years.
