About Directors Box Events

Business relationships.
Built around great occasions.

How it began

Two perspectives.
One clear idea.

Directors Box Events grew from the working relationship between Mark Linton and Simon Beevers, initially as supplier and client through The Business Growth Network.

As Simon became more involved with Mark, he saw first-hand the experience, relationships and knowledge Mark had built through more than 30 years in event management. It quickly became clear there was an opportunity to create something different.

They sat down, put their heads together and Directors Box Events was formed.

The idea was simple

Give business owners and directors access to exceptional sport—and create the right environment for genuine business relationships along the way.

More than a day at the sport

The occasion opens the door.

What matters is who you are with, the experience you create and the conversations that happen away from the office.

Between them, Mark and Simon have experienced some of the UK’s and world’s most prestigious sporting and hospitality events, including Cheltenham Festival, Formula 1, Asian Cup Polo, international cricket and tennis.

They wanted to make that experience available to businesses looking to entertain clients, reward teams, build relationships or simply enjoy an exceptional day with other directors and business owners.

Experience you can rely on

We understand both sides of the experience.

Event expertise

Mark brings more than 30 years’ experience creating and delivering events for businesses and organisations across the UK. He knows what makes a great event work—from the relationships behind it to the detail on the day.

The business perspective

As an experienced business owner, Simon understands what directors actually want from corporate hospitality: an experience that represents their business well and creates quality time with the right people.

We know what makes a great event, and we understand why a business invests in taking a client, prospect, colleague or partner in the first place.

We take care of everything

Hospitality without the complication.

Our team and trusted partners handle the detail from selecting the right event through to arrangements on the day.

Leave the arrangements to us

Focus on your guests

You can concentrate on enjoying the event, entertaining your guests and making the most of the relationships around you.

Bringing business and sport together

The best business conversations rarely happen around a boardroom table.

They happen over lunch, during a day at the races, whilst watching a major sporting event or over a drink after the final whistle. Directors Box Events creates those opportunities.

World-class sport. Exceptional hospitality. Genuine business relationships.
