Entertaining
Among the valuable learning and unrivalled networking, RecFest is also the place for Recruiters to have a well deserved break and have FUN! We have thrilling live entertainment, music and of course, RecFest wouldn’t be complete without its legendary afterparty!
Where is it happening?
Since RecFest’s inception, we have tried and tested various vibrant venues that break the traditional corporate event mould which have included a boat, a market and even an amusement park. However, after much experimentation, we realised that we already had the perfect formula a couple of years ago: a field and big top tents!
We are going back to the iconic Knebworth Park, Stevenage (Just 20 minutes by train from Kings Cross) will be home to RecFest 2023. Renowned worldwide for its rock gigs which have hosted the likes of Queen, Oasis and The Rolling Stones, we thought Knebworth would be the perfect venue for our industry’s own hard-working rock stars to gather for a day of discovery and fun in the sun.
