Sheree - Sally
The awards are the highlight of the company’s calendar, with staff members up and down the country working hard in the hope they’ll be nominated for one of the prestigious awards.
The full awards ceremony was also streamed live to all the Sally staff in the UK and Ireland who weren’t attending in person. This was a first for the client and showed how sharing the successes and passions of the delegates is motivating the whole company to work hard.
The event took place over three days at Centre Parcs, Woburn, involving over 200 guests. GASP Creative Events Production designed and delivered a full event package, which included the campaign creatives, staging, lighting, audio and visuals for several live elements including: an opening welcome presentation, activity team build in-conjunction with Centre Parcs and a party evening all on day 1, the rehearsals and awards ceremony on day 2 and a thank you presentation on day 3.
In addition, we collaborated with Sally to help sell a number of sponsorship packages to some of the biggest names in hair & beauty. This part of the service you wouldn’t usually get from an events company unless commissioned specifically, so we’re really proud to be able to show how our creative approach adds real value to our clients and the partners.
The event was no mean feat; our team of over 35 included lighting technicians, riggers, show directors, video producers, photographers, pyro-technicians, script-writers, schedulers, assistants and runners. We also threw a couple of celebs into the mix for good measure: Rylan Clarke as host and Ellie Taylor as the backstage interviewer.

We’d like to thank all of our team members for their professionalism and expertise to bring this event together so smoothly. We’d also like to thank Sally for their continued faith in us to deliver a stunning event under pressure!
We look forward to more company Excellence from the Sally family.
