Delivering Successful Major Public Events and Festivals

Delivering Successful Major Public Events and Festivals

We have a great tradition in Britain of organising a huge range of great major events and festivals.  They are well thought of, entertaining and popular.  This training course for event managers with experience will give them the skills to deliver excellent major events and festivals time and time again.

This is a one-day practical course based on what event organisers need to do.  It is participative, contains planning aids, group and individual exercises and is backed up by the tutors' personal event experiences.  It is relevant for all types of major events and festivals - sports, arts, cultural, hobby, historical, countryside, village and themed events.
