Next Step Events

We are proud of the work our team accomplished to make Ag Expo 2026 a success! With more than 300 exhibitors and partners from six countries, activating over 250,000 sq ft of space for exhibits, onsite events and the 129th North American Seed Fair, it’s amazing to see what comes together over the three days.
Events like this don’t happen because of one person or one organization — they happen because of a passion for the Agriculture industry from the organization, our partners and exhibitors and our guests.
With Suzanne leading the team as the Ag Expo Show Manager, we worked alongside the team at Excite Lethbridge to bring the show to life. Trade shows mean long days, constant problem-solving, and a lot of behind-the-scenes work — and it’s the commitment of the team that makes it all possible.
Let the planning for Ag Expo 2027 begin!

And so it begins - set-up for has begun! Great to be part of the onsite team and love the floor manager move in puzzle!

It has been my pleasure to be onsite at Agri-Trade Equipment Expo this week as a Floor Manager as well as taking care of the production for the Ag Innovations Awards! The amazing team behind this event has welcomed a sold out show of exhibitors and although the event is not over yet - it has already been a huge success!!

Wishing everyone a happy holiday season! 2023, during which we celebrated our 10th official year in business, has been a great year and we can't wait to see what 2024 brings!

This week has been one for the books! We had the pleasure to provide our Event Management services to the Edmonton Police Service and the Edmonton Police Foundation for the inaugural The Safety of our Cities Conference, which was hosted in Edmonton September 18-20, 2023. With more than 600 attendees, 7 keynotes and almost 100 panelists (from across North America) - this event is one we are so pround of!

A huge shout out to Chris Duncan and the team from Production World, the team at the Edmonton Convention Centre, the EPS & EPF teams and to my team (Jodi Currie, Molly MacLeod & Stacy Felkar) - it was a full team effort to make this event as amazing as it was!

Check it out! Lots of great educational sessions at AgSmart 2023! 

Have you checked out the educational session schedule at www.AgSmartOlds.ca? There are 40 different sessions to check during like this one about nitrous oxide emissions by Abby Sim from Olds College Centre for Innovation!

It’s go time! Excited to be helping as Stage Management for the Ag-Innovation Awards at Agri-Trade Equipment Expo

A beautiful morning for a road trip to see our AgSmart Olds event site!

It has been a great day working with the Alberta Weekly Newspaper Association on their 102nd Annual Convention.

It was great to bring everyone together at the Chateau Lacombe Hotel and to get to work with Brent Taylor and his team at Event Technology Solutions!

Happy Mother’s Day to all of the amazing moms - especially mine and all of the honorary moms that had a huge part in my life!

I am a strong woman because a strong woman raised me!
