At a recent corporate event, we got creative with facility signage, and the result was fantastic! Check out this short video to see what we mean. #eventplanning #facilitiesmanagement #corporateevents

Downtown Tulsa is on the brink of a transformation! Renee McKenney, a visionary at Tulsa Regional Tourism, envisions a 650-room convention hotel by 2026. Why? Here's the breakdown: 🏨 Boosting Business: A new hotel means more visitors, and with them, a surge in local spending. For every dollar spent, it's estimated to bring three times that back into our economy. 🚶♂️ Walkability: With major venues like the BOK Center and Cox Business Convention Center, having nearby accommodations is crucial. The goal? Make everything accessible within a short walk. 🍽️ Vibrancy & Vitality: Imagine stepping out of a convention and being greeted by restaurants, vibrant retail spaces, and lively gathering spots. That's the dream, and it's closer than we think. 🤝 Public-Private Ventures: Such developments often see collaboration between the public and private sectors, maximizing benefits for all. Renee, your vision and dedication to Tulsa's growth and transformation are truly inspiring. Here's to the future and the incredible potential it holds for the city! #TulsaTransformation

Founder & CEO of EventWright | Expert in Event Design, Destination Management, Logistics, and Crafting Authentic California Experiences
⭐️ VENUE HIGHLIGHT ⭐️ As event professionals, orchestrating an event at San Francisco City Hall introduces a distinctive array of hurdles, all stemming from its iconic stature and historical significance: - Organizing an event within a government building entails intricate logistics. This means securing various permits, and additional insurance coverage, while meticulously adhering to stringent guidelines aimed at preserving the historic structure. - The grand architectural setting of City Hall presents a breathtaking backdrop, but configuring the space optimally can be a challenge. We must consider every detail, from seating arrangements to audiovisual setups. - Achieving pristine sound quality within the cavernous and echoing space is an art. Meticulous planning of audio systems and acoustics is imperative to ensure that music and speeches resonate clearly. - SF City Hall is a cherished historical landmark, demanding utmost respect for its integrity. Event planners must exercise extreme care to prevent any harm or alterations to the structure. - Coordinating with vendors, such as caterers and AV teams, demands adherence to City Hall's standards and regulations, often consuming significant time and effort. Despite its challenges, the opportunity to host an event at San Francisco City Hall offers a unique and unforgettable experience in a setting rich with history and architectural beauty. With careful planning and attention to detail, these challenges can be overcome, resulting in a memorable and elegant affair in the heart of San Francisco. #california #DMC #events #corporateevents #eventprofs #eventdesign #localexperiences #travel #incentivetravel
