Looking forward to a great program in San Jose!

A wonderfully intimate evening of food, industry friends, and great conversations. Thank you Chicago Winery for hosting us. I left full of delicious food and hungry for more conversations like this - where planners and venues come together to casually discuss how to be better partners and create incredible events for our clients.

Thank you Shore Club Chicago and Christie Ray for a lovely evening and dinner on the beach with friends and colleagues from the Chicago Events Industry. I’m not sure which was hotter - the 94* end of summer heatwave or the décor, music, lighting and company at this Palm Royale inspired soirée! A perfect venue for a beachfront event!

It’s a beautiful morning to win some business! 🌵 ☀️

Taking events to new heights - one story at a time! Incredible views from this evening’s event.

Had a great time earlier this week at Chicago’s Hospitality and Tourism Summit at Navy Pier. The day was full of industry insights and trends via panel conversations about Event Influencers, PR/Media, Sustainability, Cultural Tourism in Chicago’s 77, and a brief State of the Industry. The trade show featured 100+ local event partners/suppliers/vendors that make Chicago’s event scene second to none! It was great seeing and connecting with so many industry friends and colleagues, and even ran into one of our favorite strolling DJs!

We couldn’t have said it better ourselves! 😉

Every event is a story waiting to be told. From the grandest celebrations to the smallest gatherings, each one has its unique narrative. The International Live Events Association is here to help you write those stories and make them unforgettable.

This morning’s office — we’ve had worse!

Did you know that in 2023, the events industry created $119 Billion in event related travel spending in the US alone, and supported nearly 600,000 jobs.
