EVENTS UPDATE

BC Event Management has partnered with the
Harbour Convention Centre to host “Reconnect 2020”
The online auction is a fundraising initiative held in conjunction with   Reconnect 2020.

Organized by BC Event Management, this hybrid event, includes both an interactive live-streamed element and an in-person event. It is the first event to be approved by the City of Vancouver and Vancouver Coastal Health for complying with the city’s new Covid-19 protocols and will therefore be a model for the hospitality, tourism, meeting, conference, and event industries.

on Saturday, June 27 starting at 5 pm

INFORMATION AND WELLBEING LINKS

We have a COVID19 information and wellbeing links page on our website that may be of interest.
The BCHF is a charity that supports hospitality workers facing financial crisis due to a health condition. These are the people who work in your favourite restaurants, wineries, breweries, bars, and hotels. Often with limited access to benefits or financial aid, our beneficiaries have nowhere else to turn if a health condition arises. Your support has a meaningful impact by getting them back on their feet again.
