Raise a Glass to the North East!

St Geordie’s Day - 20th April 2012, The Marriott Hotel, Gosforth Park

Benchmark Communications are hosting a spectacular event to celebrate all that we love about North East England. Taking place on the Friday before St George’s Day each year, St Geordie’s Day is a celebration with pomp, ceremony, roast beef, red roses and copious amounts of flag waving; and is set to become an unmissable event in the business social calendar in the North East. Join us for the inaugural St Geordie’s Day luncheon on Friday 20th April 2012 at The Marriott Hotel, Gosforth Park.

We know you’ve heard of St George’s Day, St Patrick’s Day etc., but St Geordie’s Day is going to hit a totally new level of patriotism, Geordie style (and we’re not talking Geordie Shore here). The day will include stacks of entertainment, copious amounts of specially brewed St Geordie’s Day Ale and truly excellent food. We want you to have a bloody good time.

Not only is the event an excuse for a good old knees up, we’re also raising invaluable funds for three geet canny charities based in North East England: The Sick Children’s Trust, The Light Dragoon’s Colonel’s Appeal and Run Geordie Run. We hope you’ve heard about them all before, but if not, take a look at their profiles on our website: www.stgeordiesday.co.uk.
