And with plenty of highly anticipated events lined up for 2025 including a number of over-30\u2019s dayclubs and a fantastic line-up of summer festivals, Word of Mouth Events may just be your ticket to a year of incredible entertainment.\u00a0<\/strong>\r\n\r\nStuart Ojelay, the company\u2019s founder, was initially introduced to Wolverhampton\u2019s vibrant nightlife whilst working behind the bar at The Canal Club,<\/strong> which was named \u2018Club of the Year\u2019 in 1997, effectively putting Stuart at the forefront of various opportunities.\r\n
\r\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\r\n<\/div>\r\nFrom here, Stuart Ojelay honed his passion for delivering high quality events – firstly by taking over The Canal Club\u2019s Thursday Nights – famously known as Totty – and later by embarking on larger scale DJ and promotion work abroad.\r\n\r\n\u201cAfter 10 years of travelling and widening my experience, it was definitely time for the big project: Word of Mouth Events.\u201d<\/em> explains Stuart. \u201cI was lucky to start this up with one of my best friends, James Garrett, and in 2007 we both set out to bring something even more unique to Wolverhampton\u2019s renowned nightlife.”<\/em>\r\n\r\n“Word of Mouth Events is all about providing a safe environment so everyone can have an incredible time. Our ethos is to ensure we are entirely transparent, so people can really trust what they\u2019re coming to see.\u201d<\/em>\r\n\r\nPriding itself on providing up-market and quality events, Word of Mouth Events cover just about everything. Whatever the occasion, from two day festivals to smaller gatherings such as birthdays and personal celebrations, it\u2019s always entirely bespoke and unique to each event.\r\n
\r\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\u201cWe\u2019re always at the forefront of trends and everything going on, so can adapt and cater for whatever the event requires. We very much have our own identity and are always thinking outside the box to ensure we stand separate from similar initiatives.\u201d<\/em>\r\n\r\nAnd it\u2019s that level of creativity that is always found within each and every Word of Mouth event. Shortly after starting the company, both Stuart and James became involved with producing their own tracks which saw a great degree of success.\r\n\r\n\u201cWe had the pleasure of working with Todd Terry<\/strong> and Bob Sinclar<\/strong> – both huge icons within the industry. It\u2019s incredibly rewarding to be able to create my own content and then share it with everyone else; it\u2019s one of the many things I love about my work.\u201d<\/em>\r\n\r\nNot only did Stuart\u2019s talent reach renowned music producers, but also huge names such as The Ministry of Sound<\/strong> and Hed Kandi.\u00a0<\/strong>\r\n\r\n\u201cThis was one of my lifetime dreams as it really didn\u2019t get much bigger than that for me. I was named \u2018Worldwide Resident DJ\u2019 and spent the next 4 years travelling the world with Hed Kandi\/Ministry of Sound, covering a wide range of events.”<\/em>\r\n\r\n\"\"<\/a>\r\n\r\n“I went everywhere: Bali, Brazil\u2026 you name it. I worked in every continent other than Antarctica! And as you can imagine, representing brands as huge as those, the life and work experience I obtained in those 4 years was priceless.\u201d<\/em>\r\n\r\nOn returning permanently to the U.K., Stuart poured all this new experience into giving Word of Mouth Events a whole new lease of life, and with that, bringing many people from across the country to our city: \u201cOur focus now is to try and champion our local area with Word of Mouth Events. Yes, we\u2019ve had many requests to take our most popular events across the U.K. – and even over the globe – but it would be really great if we could see the rest of the country coming down to see us.\u201d<\/em>\r\n\r\nAnd people are certainly prepared to make that journey. In recent years, ticket sales have continuously increased, with an impressive number of purchases being made across the U.K. map. This huge growth in the brand has allowed the team to expand; they now have a prolific roster of gifted djs, musicians and performers. This is led by second in command Dan Roberts<\/strong> who is integral to the brand from in his stellar DJ performances to keeping the team together and managing the constant mental challenges the events industry can bring.\r\n\r\nThis Word of Mouth family are united in their vision and allow so many more events to take place.\r\n\r\nOne key factor driving the ticket sales increase is the company\u2019s heightened presence across social media; including Facebook, Tik Tok and Instagram, enabling Word of Mouth Events to reach an audience on a much wider scale.\r\n\r\n\u201cOur visibility on social media means we can start hitting new areas and reaching new people. It also means that we get quite a large response to the events we put on, and with that, there will always be a mixture of great feedback and some criticism.”<\/em>\r\n\r\nWhat\u2019s important to us, though, is ensuring we are proactive to everyone\u2019s outlook and consistently listening to make sure our events only get better. We are always learning.\u201d<\/em>\r\n\r\n2025 will see their fourth festival at Himley Hall<\/strong>. This annual tradition has reaped enormous success each year and is a contender for being the Black Country\u2019s largest dance festival, with an upward figure of 4000 guests.\r\n
\r\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\u201cThe festival we do at Himley is a perfect embodiment of what Word of Mouth Events really is about. There we champion everything local – from food to staff to entertainment. It\u2019s very much a celebration of the people and culture of The Black Country as well as it is an incredibly fun day to eve.\u201d<\/em>\r\n\r\nThis year will also continue to offer a number of over-30\u2019s dayclubs across various towns and cities within the Midlands – something which has proved a very popular hit with clubbers who still need to get home by 10pm!\r\n\r\nWhat\u2019s more, Word of Mouth Events will be hosting their first over-30\u2019s festival at Trentham Estate on June 14th.<\/strong>\r\n\r\n
