Abstract
Retail and event caterer Amadeus has been awarded the catering contract, worth an estimated £1m, for one of Birmingham’s most iconic venues, Town Hall.

The contractor, part of the NEC Group, will provide banqueting and conference catering for all commercial hire events at the city centre venue.

Managing director Kevin Watson said Amadeus had worked with its award-winning chef team to develop a range of exclusive Town Hall signature menus that can only be experienced at the venue.

The Grade I listed building, managed together with Symphony Hall, hosts conferences, gala dinners, awards events, catwalk shows, drinks receptions, film screenings and weddings amongst other events.

Amadeus was awarded the catering contract for Town Hall following a complex six-way tender process. This follows the latest success of a £2m contract win for the newly refurbished Library of Birmingham, located just a short walk from Town Hall.

Nick Loveland, Town Hall and Symphony Hall Birmingham Director of Operations said: “We are thrilled to have Amadeus on board, having identified them as our ideal catering partner.

“We were looking for a caterer who could match up to the impressive surroundings of Town Hall by offering creative catering at the highest standard.

“Amadeus are renowned for the quality of their food offering, and this, coupled with their expertise in the catering industry, fills us with confidence that together we can deliver a unique world-class experience to new and existing clients.”

Watson added: “This is a significant win for Amadeus and we are pleased to be adding yet another landmark City Centre venue to our portfolio.

“We already hold the catering contracts for the NIA and the ICC Birmingham, so to be awarded the contract for another two of the most iconic buildings in the country’s second City, in the space of just a few months, is a huge triumph.

“This win with Town Hall Birmingham, and recently the café facility at the Library of Birmingham further our reputation as one of the leading venue catering companies in the UK.

“We look forward to working closely with the team at Town Hall to help grow the number of commercial events held at the venue, by offering our customers the very finest catering and hospitality service.”
