With the sun now shining, well it is today, we are finding companies are now looking at booking their summer events and are often unsure which ones to take them to.

The Super Bowl is happening in Houston on Sunday with the Atlanta Falcons taking on the New England Patriots at the NRG Stadium.

With England having one of their best years in International rugby for a long time with Eddie Jones team currently unbeaten in 2016 hospitality at Twickenham is even more popular.
