A specialist leisure, tourism and culture consultancy practice

We provide sound strategic guidance and support to the fast-moving and often volatile leisure and tourism sectors, helping our clients peer into tomorrow and make the most of their unique assets and strengths.

The practice is led by Gareth Kavanagh – a personable and experienced consultant, balancing a wealth of consultancy experience gathered over 15 years working on a range of leisure, tourism, sports and visitor attraction-based schemes from niche micro-commissions to some of the major schemes in the UK and Europe.

This is balanced with a range of practical achievements in the leisure and hospitality world. His practical experiences span festival development, theatre production, publishing, multi-media events and hotel, restaurant and hospitality ops at the highest levels.

As practice principal, Gareth is the face of the company, managing all outputs, and is involved in every project at every stage from twinkle in the eye, through inception, planning and, increasingly, execution.

Leisure INC is also able to draw on a wealth of other professional associates to draw on, with skills across the board encompassing theatre ops, planning, architecture, property, the environment, transport, heritage, visitor attractions, fundraising, hotel, cost consulting, regeneration and town centre management.

We are increasingly deployed as leisure and tourism specialists within larger multi-disciplinary teams and often find this to be highly rewarding for both parties.

Current partners include Colliers International Destination Consulting, AEW, Arup, Peter Brett Associates, Blue Sail and Mott Macdonald and we are always keen to hear from new partners interested in adding our valued added leisure and tourism support to their teams.

With an experience base of over one hundred successfully complex and eclectic consulting assignments under our belt, Leisure INC is qualified to provide advice on sectors spanning the leisure spectrum, including tourism development, regeneration and masterplanning, sport and recreation, visitor attractions, heritage and HLF compliant business plans, rural development, events, the arts and culture, stadia and professional team sports, hotels, conference, bars and restaurants and the overall evening economy.

We undertake business plans, strategies, feasibility studies, masterplans and regeneration studies, project reviews, due diligence reviews and market reviews.
