HOSPITALITY AND LEISURE GO SUPERSONIC 🎸 Full disclosure: I was one of the lucky ones who managed to get tickets for the Gallagher brothers reunion tour next year. I saw Oasis when they were together the first time round, and Noel and Liam separately on numerous occasions so it is fair to say I am very excited to see them back together next year. However, it’s not just my interest that has been piqued. The Caterer are reporting that the hospitality and leisure sector saw a 5.1% uplift in September compared to the 3.8% year on year growth seen in August with ticket sales for the Oasis reunion tour next summer playing a massive part in this. Of course this increase was also helped by the huge debacle around dynamic ticketing pricing for the shows. That being said, I am sure just like with the Taylor Swift tour this year, when it comes to the shows next year (along with stadium tours from Dua Lipa, Coldplay and Bruce Springsteen) there will be a huge boost the British economy, particularly in the hospitality sector. What can the music and touring scene muster so that the hospitality and leisure bounce continues in 2026 and what can these sectors do to harness it further? Johnny Marr has already ruled out a Smiths reunion so count that one out. Some Might Say that the UK hospitality sector is in the middle of a Champagne Supernova, let’s hope the next few months do not Bring It On Down …. 😀 Did you manage to get tickets to see Oasis or were you caught in Ticketmaster’s never ending queue? #hospitality #leisure #property

The Role of Advanced Technology in Transforming High-end Sports Hospitality. In the world of high-end sports hospitality, delivering an unforgettable experience is not just a goal—it’s an expectation. This sector caters to discerning customers who demand personalised, seamless, and luxurious experiences that match the exclusivity of the events they attend. Advanced technology is playing a transformative role in meeting these expectations, enabling sports venues and hospitality providers to elevate their services and create unparalleled guest experiences. However, while technology is reshaping the industry, the human factor remains equally critical. In luxury sports hospitality, technology must complement—rather than replace—the personal touch that creates emotional connections and lasting impressions. https://lnkd.in/evRTZmbm #hospitality #smarttechnology #AIpowered #vipguests #seamlessexperiences

Toby Harris, chief executive of State of Play Hospitality, the international experiential leisure operator, has told Propel he believes it is logical that consolidation will take place “in our sub sector of the industry”, and that the business is “actively engaged on an opportunity” to bring its bingo concept, Hijingo, to the US. The business currently operates six Flight Clubs under licence in the US, three Bounce sites in London and a Hijingo site in Shoreditch. 👉 For the full version of this story and to read it first sign up to the Propel email newsletter for free: https://lnkd.in/eyy_THzR
