Chantilly

 

Agency for the organisation of tailored events, PREFERENCE EVENTS
 organises seminars, conventions, incentive trips and team building for firms in chantilly.

World-famous for its whipped cream, Chantilly also owes its prestige to its château, the Great Stables, hunting and horse-racing. Louis-Henri de Bourbon-Condé’s Great Stables are a monument glorifying horses, and a reminder of the magnificence of the French monarchy. The first horse-races were organised in 1834, backed by the royal family. Horses have played a prominent role in Chantilly, which remains the greatest training centre in Europe to this day.

The Chantilly estate forms a superb green setting with a forest stretching across over 6,000 hectares. It was built by Henri d’Orléans, Duke of Aumale (1822-1897), who made its ongoing embellishment his life work. The château holds the second largest collection of French paintings after that of the Louvre.

As a great venue for incentive trips less than an hour from Paris, Chantilly is a remarkable site at which to organise team-building days and exceptional corporate events. The city boasts considerable hotel capacity, so it can house conventions, AGMs and company seminars.
