Association Of Event Venues

We are the Association of Event Venues (AEV): a trade body representing venues of all size and type both in the UK and internationally. Our membership is open to all venues housing trade and/or consumer events and exhibitions. It is run by our members for the benefit of our members through an elected council of representatives, specialist working groups and a full-time secretariat. AEV membership enables venues to work closely with members of our sister organisations, AEO (Association of Event Organisers) and ESSA (Event Supplier and Services Association), increasing the profile and significance of events within the marketing mix. For membership eligibility, venues must agree to AEV’s code of conduct and be sponsored by an existing AEV, ESSA or AEO member.
