Who we are
Georgina Gibson
I directed the Soho House Festival from 2004 - 2024. Twenty years of turning a field in West London into the kind of event 10,000 members look forward to all year. Rain, mud, logistics that would break most people - I love it. Give me a blank space and a big idea, and I'll make it happen.
I started at Soho House in 1997 and spent over a decade there as Marketing Director - launching Babington House, The Electric, High Road House, and overseeing everything from brand partnerships to new openings. I also launched Cowshed, which taught me that building something from nothing requires equal parts vision and relentless attention to detail.
Detail is where I live. I remember everything - the client who hates cilantro, the supplier who always delivers early, the exact shade of pink from three years ago. It's not photographic memory, it's care. When you're producing milestone celebrations or high-stakes corporate events, the details aren't nice-to-haves. They're the whole point.
I'm known for food and beverage programs that feel considered, not catered. For elegant moments that don't announce themselves. For being genuinely excited about a luxury party in a field or a seated dinner for 200 -because scale doesn't determine whether something matters.
Nick Jones calls me "a powerhouse of an events director with attention to detail that is second to none." After 26 years working together, I'd say he knows.
I'm the firepower behind G&J. Juliette is the creative vision. Together, we've built something that works because we're not the same person trying to do the same job.

I've screened films on beaches where the tide came in mid-show. Built igloos at the top of the Shard. Put a different activity in every capsule of the London Eye. Turned the roof of the O2 into an event space. If someone says "that can't be done," I love to try and work out how to do it.
I came up through the art world - head of events at Serpentine Gallery, then Halcyon Gallery - which taught me that creativity without flawless execution doesn’t work. I've worked with people such as Julia Peyton-Jones, Tracey Emin, Zaha Hadid, Marina Abramovich, Anna Wintour, Edward Enninful, Michael Bloomberg, Olivia Coleman, Mark Rylance, Lionel Richie, and Richard Curtis. When you work at that level, you learn how to move quickly, stay calm, and never make the client manage anything they shouldn't have to.
I've worked from the ground up - logistics, operations, creative direction, client management - so I know what actually makes an event succeed, not just what looks good on paper. These days, I bring the creative vision. George brings the firepower and the details. I bring the "what if we tried this?"
I'm also account director for BSME (British Society of Magazine Editors), which means I spend a lot of time with editors, publishers, and people who notice everything. Most event producers will tell you what's possible. I'm more interested in what hasn't been done yet.
In 2023, we made it official. George & Juliette Productions brings together three decades of experience, two very different skill sets, and a shared standard: every event we touch has to be worth doing.
