The Oysters 4th Annual Summer Party – once again the hottest place to be!

The Oysters Summer Party, now in its fourth consecutive year, has firmly established itself as the highlight of the year for the meetings and incentives industry. And this year's event on July 5^th exceeded even the highest expectations as over 150 guests arrived in summer sunshine to network and party in the scintillating atmosphere at one of London's most stunning venues - One Marylebone.

Representatives from 20 participating destinations put on a spectacular range of experiences showcasing each country's unique assets, including a Kylie impersonator from Australia, Santa Claus from Finland and superbly attired Cypriot folk dancers – whilst Sweden's sexy male model (dressed only in fetching underwear) created quite a stir. Guests arrived to the beat of South African drummers and then embarked on an odyssey of Oysters hospitality at its best. They sampled a fantastic range of dishes from all over the world, from delicious Irish oysters to savouries from Cyprus, Italian limoncello to dates from Oman. The more adventurous enjoyed fascinating gastronomy classes featuring Maltese kannoli and sushi from Japan, as well as food tasting from France's Olive Tapenades Atelier.

There was a spectacular selection of drinks - alcoholic and otherwise – went down well as the temperature went up. Cocktail enthusiasts were spoilt for choice, learning to create their own with a Canadian mixologist, enjoying a stunning German artistic cocktail show or tasting an exotic selection from Portugal. The Swedish Ice Bar proved equally popular, whilst beer lovers were treated to excellent Flemish and Belgian brews.

After all the eating and drinking, guests could indulge in some well-deserved pampering with an Icelandic hand massage at the Blue Lagoon Spa. The 'Wellness' corner was also a huge draw, with Maltese nail-painting or head & shoulder massages as well as Swedish massage physiotherapy, whilst Dubai’s henna tattooist and South Africa's face painters were kept very busy. Switzerland's intriguing farm animal-themed football table was also inundated with devotees - possibly inspired by Euro 2012!

The stunning programme of entertainment included a whole spectrum of activities, including games, draws & raffles with prizes ranging from wine to gourmet food, holidays to weekend breaks. Music and dancing continued well into the early hours and, for some, way beyond!

Once again, the occasion was organised by Beyond Certainty, one of the UK's most successful and creative events management specialists. Led by the indefatigable Haralambos Stavrou, the Beyond Certainty team transformed One Marylebone into a stunning global showcase. The catering, provided by the illustrious team from The London Kitchen, was exceptional. The evening could not have happened without the magnificent support of The Meetings Show, the event's headline sponsors, as well as Kerzner.com, the party’s bronze sponsors.

Oysters' spokesperson Marie Anne Barthet Brown commented: "We knew that this year we would have our work cut out following the success of previous events. But the response from guests has been amazing. Our grateful thanks go to all who contributed to making our 4^th Annual Summer Party such a wonderful occasion. We’re all looking forward to next year’s event."
