About us
For more than 26 years the White Book directory has been the leader in the events industry. We are now moving towards a complete online presence allowing our visitors and suppliers to experience a more immediate reference portal with instant updates on directory details. The launch of the first phase in the new site is helping to make this a reality with future developments planned to enable continued growth of the directory and an ongoing presence within the industry sector. Along side our fully comprehensive new website we will still be publishing and distributing the print directory so you can always have us to hand!
With our unique status of being the most comprehensive source of specialist event contacts in the UK with over 27,000 listings, the White Book directory covers everything from show bags for event visitors to stage construction, access towers and rigging for lighting equipment. Everything you need to enable the production of your event can be found within the 400 categories of our directory.
We pride ourselves on our quality of data and have ensured that all of our listings are 100% correct - we are the new refined, restructured, reborne White Book!
