October 2020 – Last month I shared my worries about producing a live event during COVID-19. This month I’m here to tell you – WE DID IT!
After six long months of having almost no event-related work on the docket, we produced a live event during a pandemic and people actually had fun, felt safe, and didn’t get sick.
It was no small feat. It seemed like everyday in the lead-up to the event there was a new hurdle to overcome, a new policy to review and implement, or a new question or concern to tackle.
It was mentally exhausting, but I learned a lot so I’m sharing 7 key take-aways in this month’s blog.
COVID may be kicking the sh*t out of the events industry in Canada right now, but we’re here to tell you that with a little creativity and a lot of planning, staging an event during a pandemic is possible. And, you can have fun with it too.

As always, if you have an event, sponsorship, marketing or communications dilemma, question or brilliant idea, please do not hesitate to reach out. Happy October!
