Travel Village Group has once again brought its business owner community together with a series of Network & Nosh events held across the UK, rounding off 2025 with collaboration, connection and a festive twist.
The Christmas Edition of Network & Nosh saw travel business owners, supplier partners and industry colleagues come together in five key locations throughout November and December, reinforcing Travel Village Group’s ongoing commitment to meaningful relationships, shared learning and supporting independent businesses nationwide.
The events kicked off in Blackpool on 21 November at the Village Hotel, sponsored by Gold Medal, with Leigh Lavery joining attendees for an afternoon of relaxed networking and open conversation. Glasgow followed on 9 December, sponsored by Jetset, with Paul Molyneux hosting business owners for an engaging and informal get together north of the border.
That same afternoon, Leeds welcomed its own Network & Nosh event, sponsored by PortAventura, with Zoe Holt supporting discussions around partnership, opportunity and growth. Birmingham continued the festive run on 11 December, sponsored by If Only, with Gemma Pinder-Davidson bringing supplier insight to the table.
The final event of the year took place in Bristol on 16 December at The Botanist, sponsored by Titan Travel, where Shane Riley joined Holiday Village business owners to round off a successful year in true Network & Nosh style.
Across all locations, the events provided a relaxed environment for business owners to share experiences, strengthen supplier relationships and take time out of the busy pre-Christmas trading period to reconnect with peers. As always, Network & Nosh focused on quality conversations rather than formal presentations, allowing genuine connections to take centre stage.
Travel Village Group continues to invest in regional events that bring its network together in person, recognising the value of face to face interaction in an increasingly digital industry. The success of the 2025 Network & Nosh series reinforces the importance of community-led initiatives that support, inspire and empower independent travel businesses.
