The Dolce Vita Event in London

Jason Feller and Giovanni Rana

During March and April this year we had stands at two important events. The Dolce Vita show and A Place in the Sun.

Dolce Vita was held at the Islington Design Centre and was a huge success on all fronts. Firstly the public arrived in their droves as the show offered not only holidays, holiday homes and everything about living in Italy but there was masses of food and drink on offer. Delicious tasty samples of salami, hams, cheese etc. plus exquisite wines. Our stand, italylettings.com was packed with a very interested public wanting information on our holiday accommodation. We took masses of enquiries and ran a competition for 1000 euros off a holiday in Italy. The show was sponsored by Birra Moretti and Giovanni Rana (pasta for those of you who don't know this famous man!) We managed to capture Jason Feller together with Giovanni Rana at the beginning of the show. A small triumph as we eased our way into the Press area where I pretended to be famous photographer! (Well I am really!)

A PLACE IN THE SUN. LONDON

A Place in the Sun was held at Earl's Court and was also extremely well attended. This show is aimed at property sales abroad - although we also had masses of holiday letting enquiries as well. Hannah and James who head the sales team, took a huge amount of property enquiries and Roddy Bassett our senior property advisor was part of a questions and answers talk with three other panelists - this ran each day of the show. Roddy who has lived in Italy for years, answered questions from the audience about how to handle purchasing in Italy and what to expect..the ins and outs of the bureaucracy one has to deal with. He and all the team are available to give advice through this blog on this and any subject to do with day to day living in Italy.

Result? Excellent. Literally hundreds of enquiries with both events getting top marks in networking. We have since received a mass of holiday bookings and clients who wish to purchase in Italy through Italy Rediscovered. We are thrilled

at the response and look forward to our next show!!!
