The crown jewel within the Sandy Park complex, the spacious and light-filled Exeter Suite - which boasts two private bars - is the largest on site and boasts the latest in audio-visual technology including: four high-definition data projectors with 4.4m wide screens, two additional projector screens, five large plasma screens and an internal PA system, with a selection of microphones on offer to suit different requirements.
Not only ideal for conferencing and meeting space, the fully air-conditioned Exeter Suite has hosted awards shows, business exhibitions, charity gala events, as well as events put on by Sandy Park itself, including Comedy Nights, Ministry of Sound and in-house sporting events.
The suite also has a high definition camera, allowing speakers or other activities to be displayed across the screens both in the Exeter Suite and throughout the building. Delegates and organisers can enjoy wireless streaming of videos and presentations from their devices to the screens via the Apple TV system installed.
One of the most interesting and practical features of this suite is that it can be split into two rooms by a floor to ceiling partition wall. Each of these rooms can comfortably seat up to 390 guests. This convenient feature lends itself very well to meetings or events that require either a separate breakout space, networking zone, exhibition area or catering space.

The County Suite is conveniently situated adjacent from the Exeter Suite, offering an ideal room to provide either a reception, break-out space, exhibition zone or catering area for any event taking place in the much-larger Exeter Suite.
With its large ceilings and state-of-the-art technology, the Suite also provides the perfect setting for smaller conferencing and meetings needs. Not only is it air-conditioned, spacious and with disabled access, but its unique lay-out means it remains a popular setting for clients, both new and returning, who are keen to make full use of its capacity.
The County Suite, situated on the first floor, also offers a large private bar along with a Panasonic SOLID SHINE HD Laser projector with 4m x 2.25m screen, 4 Plasma screens (2 x 75", 1 x 60", 1 x 42"), Apple TV, vMix and WiFi.

The Suite's serene interior offers a warm and easy-going ambiance, which makes it the ideal event space to fit with the colours and theming for any dinner, party or wedding. The floor-to-ceiling windows overlook the pristine Exeter Chiefs pitch towards East Devon and the Exe Estuary.
Capable of comfortably seating a maximum of 220 guests, the Chiefs Suite has its own private bar as well as seven seminar suites in close proximity, making it an ideal location for any potential breakout areas.
