'The Great British Break-Up' - the Scottish Independence Referendum Live Debate

September was quite an incredible month not only for Scotland, but for the UK as a whole, with the world’s attention focussing on the Scottish Independence Referendum. The night before the historic decision was made, Mansfield Traquair had the honour of hosting Channel 4’s live debate ‘The Great British Break-Up’ and play a small part in this historic vote.

The Great British Break-Up Live Debate

The event was commissioned only six days before the debate, meaning that both the TV crew and our event designers had their work cut out. It was really exciting to be part of action – with 150 guests in the audience, real time voting, globally famous guests, and an extremely lively debate with good arguments on both sides…

The result was simply incredible, a boisterous, passionate free-for-all with strong views from a wide range of people, it made compulsive viewing on the eve of such a momentous day. The crew created a truly dramatic set within Mansfield, proving that the venue can be transformed to meet any clients’ bespoke and exciting requirements, why not consider us for your next event?
