POP-UPS, HYBRID, & OPEN-AIR EVENTS
The pandemic is here for the foreseeable future.
Safety has always been a priority for us, and we are closely monitoring developments in best practices for events during this time, as well as state and CDC guidelines. For every event we produce, we develop comprehensive Covid-Preparedness Plans to ensure our clients and their guests remain healthy.
Here are a few ways we've helped foks adjust their plans:
