Building A Timeline
Starting with an accurate timeline helps to keep everyone on task. Things to be sure to include on your timeline include finding a location, securing sponsors, recruiting vendors, and building an entertainment line up that matches with the theme of your event. Be sure to think about the things you are sure to forget about or will be easily overlooked on event day.
Building Community
Good Neighbor Festivals focuses on community centered events in communities that we love.
The event organizer needs to determine the purpose of the event and its measures of success, are you trying to make money, draw awareness, involve your partners, or all of the above?
How Can We Help
When things get overwhelming, or when your event gets larger than you can handle, it might be time to hire an event professional to assist with the logistics of your event. This will give you more time to focus on day to day tasks.
Good Neighbor Festivals has the experience and understanding to provide guidance and take your event to the next level.
Finding The Right Event Venue
Is your event on a public street, city park, or private parking lot or building? These all require different types of permits and rules. It’s important to understand the permitting rules for your event location.
Once you have a location, you can start laying out the event based on measurement of the area, determine best parking areas, and work on placement of staff and security.
Good Neighbor Festivals has years of experience in building exact festival layouts and working with city officials to make sure all of the city’s rules are followed.
