Ben Leeke
Managing Director Ben Leeke launched Capability Events in 2003 as he saw an opening in the market for high end bespoke private parties. It was a smart collaboration of all the contacts and knowledge that Ben had collated over fifteen years organising events for large country house and castle venues. Within two months clients included Virgin, The BBC, and wealth of high end celebrities and individuals.
Today the business focus is on private events and parties and Corporate Brand Support for clients such as Levis Strauss, Moet and Glenmorangie.
We have a wealth of experience running quality events and a team of expert Event Organisers, Managers and Professional Crew who are all experts at making events come to life.

Make your event extra special
Capability’s success is founded on the contacts and knowledge Ben gathered during 15 years of organising social events for large country house and castle venues.
Today the business focus is on private parties such as 18th, 21st and 40th birthday celebrations plus corporate brand events and promotional support for clients such as Levi Strauss, the Moët Hennessey group and Jaguar Land Rover.
“We wanted to send an email and thank you and everyone who contributed to such an amazing event, it was spectacular! Everyone was totally blown away. Nothing had been overlooked and it was obviously meticulously planned. We would have no hesitation in recommending you to anyone.”

“What can I say? The party is the talk of Kent! Well done and thank you for everything. I will never forget the fabulous lighting and the cocktails.”
Vickie & George
“Just wanted to say a massive thanks to you and all your staff for pulling off such an amazing party. It’s the talk of the town. We had so many comments on how lovely and friendly the staff were and extremely professional. We will definitely be using your services again and hopefully soon.”
