Lime Venue Portfolio is celebrating after being named Venue Directory Champion of the Year at the 2026 Cvent Excellence Awards Europe, recognising the portfolio's outstanding commercial performance, digital innovation and continued success in connecting event planners with venues across the UK.
The award was presented at Cvent CONNECT Europe in London, hosted by Joel Dommett, and recognises LVP's successful use of Venue Directory to drive enquiries, increase bookings and deliver measurable results across its venue portfolio.
The numbers tell an impressive story. Over the last 12 months, LVP achieved a 7.9% increase of enquiries through the platform, with the value of unique enquiries rising by 12.2%. Meanwhile, confirmed bookings increased 32%, with confirmed revenue growing by an impressive 50%.
The win is also a major endorsement of The Hub at Lime Venue Portfolio, the central team which handles the thousands of enquiries that pass through the portfolio every year. Alongside this growth, Lime Venue Portfolio has continued to improve its response times, strengthen relationships with event planners and use data to identify new commercial opportunities for its venue partners.
Jo Austin, Sales Director, Lime Venue Portfolio, commented: "We're absolutely delighted to receive this award. It's a fantastic recognition of The Hub at LVP, and the work our team does to connect brilliant venues with event organisers. Every day, they create valuable opportunities for our partners, both in person and though our AI product on line.”
"What makes this particularly special is that it's about real results. We've worked hard to combine great relationships, smart technology and a genuinely collaborative approach, and it's wonderful to see that reflected in the growth we're achieving. A huge thank you to Cvent, our venue partners and, of course, our amazing team. "
