The venue and location play a huge role in how guests will ultimately perceive the event as a whole. With that in mind, there is no one venue that is suitable for all types of events and needs. You have to choose the location wisely.
Running events can be time-consuming. It could even be possibly risky without having both the right skills and know-how as to what works. Having the appropriate resources and marketing the event effectively to your target audience are key factors too.
2003 – the year the term ‘flash mob’ was coined by Bill Wasik, a senior editor of Harper’s Magazine. What started out as a social experiment by Wasik has gone on to become one of the most attention-grabbing activities that possesses both the surprise factor and spontaneity. With many flash mob crews and agencies out there available for hire, event planners have included them in the mix of event engagement strategies.
On the fence with your decision to hire flash mobs? Here are? reasons why you should consider bringing a flash mob onboard for your next event.

As an organizer, it is your job to keep all these people safe – after all, they are taking for granted that you are! In this article, we discuss just how to ensure safety at your events.
As I’ve pointed out in a previous article, it is increasingly possible for anyone to hold an event in a non-physical space. With the almost-daily rise of new platforms and technologies, a redefinition of what an “event” is offers a whole range of new opportunities in thinking about events and how to bring groups of people together. For the most part, however, a physical event still has its many, many advantages.
