Curating and delivering an event experience that exceeded expectations

Challenge
With a £500,000 investment in a state-of-the-art showroom, Canavan needed to create a world-class launch event that would attract both loyal clients and high-value prospects. The goal was to generate awareness, celebrate the brand’s elevated positioning, and leave a lasting impression that would translate into commercial momentum. Fluent Format was tasked with delivering an unforgettable evening that matched the quality and ambition of the new space.
Solution
Fluent Format curated and delivered a luxury event experience that exceeded expectations. We managed every detail, from live music and a tailored drink experience to a guest list filled with previous and potential clients. Custom cocktails were served by a professional mixologist, with exclusive beers from Noam Beer and a champagne and wine partnership curated for the night.
A major highlight was the live cooking demonstration by two-time Michelin-starred chef Ross Lewis, showcasing the Gaggenau appliances in action. To elevate the brand experience further, we designed bespoke gift packaging for each guest. This included a handcrafted espresso plate made from Irish green marble and Iroko wood with embossed detailing, luxury chocolates designed to match the marble worktops, and a custom-branded Canavan candle.
The event was covered by local news outlets and widely shared, attracting significant attention from new clientele. Post-event, Canavan’s projected turnover rose from £2 million to £5 million, marking a clear return on both investment and brand ambition.
