Just because you aren’t able to gather in person doesn’t mean you can’t host your own company holiday party – make it virtual! This year has been especially difficult with COVID-19. Many people have been working from home and are missing face-to-face interactions with their co-workers. This is a better time than ever to get your creative juices flowing and create an unforgettable experience to celebrate the end of another year.
September 22 was the Day of Visibility for the Live Event Community. One hour after sundown, technicians, suppliers and venues across Canada were asked to light the night red in an effort to raise awareness for the event industry that is still in the dark because of COVID-19. It was an incredible display of unity and we are proud to have participated.
The event industry was flipped on its head overnight and it may take a while before we see the industry rebalance. In this unique environment caused by the pandemic, we are having to rethink our work and meeting environments.

To our customers, past, present and future: Our thoughts are with all of you at this difficult time. We hope you and your family are healthy and safe. We still remain open for business although we aren't able to offer all of our services at this time.
