The crown jewel within the Sandy Park complex, the spacious and light-filled Exeter Suite - which boasts two private bars - is the largest on site and boasts the latest in audio-visual technology including: four high-definition data projectors with 4.4m wide screens, two additional projector screens, five large plasma screens and an internal PA system, with a selection of microphones on offer to suit different requirements.
Not only ideal for conferencing and meeting space, the fully air-conditioned Exeter Suite has hosted awards shows, business exhibitions, charity gala events, as well as events put on by Sandy Park itself, including Comedy Nights, Ministry of Sound and in-house sporting events.
The suite also has a high definition camera, allowing speakers or other activities to be displayed across the screens both in the Exeter Suite and throughout the building. Delegates and organisers can enjoy wireless streaming of videos and presentations from their devices to the screens via the Apple TV system installed.
One of the most interesting and practical features of this suite is that it can be split into two rooms by a floor to ceiling partition wall. Each of these rooms can comfortably seat up to 390 guests. This convenient feature lends itself very well to meetings or events that require either a separate breakout space, networking zone, exhibition area or catering space.

The County Suite is conveniently situated adjacent from the Exeter Suite, offering an ideal room to provide either a reception, break-out space, exhibition zone or catering area for any event taking place in the much-larger Exeter Suite.
With its large ceilings and state-of-the-art technology, the Suite also provides the perfect setting for smaller conferencing and meetings needs. Not only is it air-conditioned, spacious and with disabled access, but its unique lay-out means it remains a popular setting for clients, both new and returning, who are keen to make full use of its capacity.
The County Suite, situated on the first floor, also offers a large private bar along with a Panasonic SOLID SHINE HD Laser projector with 4m x 2.25m screen, 4 Plasma screens (2 x 75", 1 x 60", 1 x 42"), Apple TV, vMix and WiFi.

The Suite's serene interior offers a warm and easy-going ambiance, which makes it the ideal event space to fit with the colours and theming for any dinner, party or wedding. The floor-to-ceiling windows overlook the pristine Exeter Chiefs pitch towards East Devon and the Exe Estuary.
Capable of comfortably seating a maximum of 220 guests, the Chiefs Suite has its own private bar as well as seven seminar suites in close proximity, making it an ideal location for any potential breakout areas.

9th September 26, UK: The Crowne Plaza Newcastle will launch a new event industry podcast this month, with the hotel looking to underline its commitment to people, from every part of the industry and to share their stories and lived experiences.Talking People with Paul Borg, hosted by the hotel’s General Manager, will launch its first episode on 16 September, beginning a six-part series of conversations with some of the most well known people in the industry, as well as some secret rising stars.The podcast brings together leaders, creatives, educators, media and emerging talent to explore the different personalities and skills that make events happen, as well as some of the bigger questions facing the people within the industry.Guests across the first series include Jo Austin, Sales Director at Lime Venue Portfolio; James Dickson of Event Industry News; Lucy Nicholls, Founder and Creative Director of The PS Events Group; Serkan Uzunogullari from the University of Sunderland; and Crowne Plaza Newcastle’s own Ben Wilson, just starting out in a career in hospitality.The subjects range from leadership, culture and career progression to creativity, education and the expectations of the next generation. The series also looks at the growing influence of AI and technology and what that means for the human skills, personalities and relationships on which the events industry has traditionally been built.“We all say we care about people. Of course we do. But I wanted us to do something that demonstrates that commitment rather than just talking about it,” said Paul Borg, General Manager, Crowne Plaza Newcastle. “At the same time, we get to hear stories from some really exceptional people in a relaxed and informative way.”“This isn't a podcast telling everyone how great our people are. It's about being curious about others. What makes someone brilliant in this industry? How do we find and nurture creative talent? What does the next generation expect from us? How do you build a career? And, as technology becomes more influential, which of those very human qualities become even more important?The launch forms part of a wider change in tone at Crowne Plaza Newcastle, with the hotel also unveiling a new meetings and events film, Your Newcastle. Your Way.The film captures a new lease of life and a new direction the hotel is enjoying under Paul’s leadership, as well as the pace and personality of the hotel through its people. The film focuses on the everyday behaviours that make a difference to organisers: answering quickly, being flexible, taking ownership and understanding how an event should feel as well as how it should function.Paul continues, “There is a new energy here and we wanted to find better ways of showing it. The podcast and the film are very different pieces of content, but the thinking behind them is actually very similar. It feels like the right time to be a little more confident about who we are, how we work and what we want Crowne Plaza Newcastle to stand for.”The first episode of Talking People with Paul Borg will be released on 16 September 2026, with further episodes released as part of the six-part series.
