What Re-Opening Our Events
May Look Like and How to Prepare Now for Maximum Success
In the midst of many challenges that we do not yet control, it is important that we do everything possible to proactively lead, drive and map where we are headed. Understanding that the future will include many new expectations, it is important that we start preparing now for when we may be able to reopen our festivals and events. This committee began to define the new expectations that all events can use to overlay with their formally ‘normal’ events, with the goal of reimagining how you might put those expectations into place and prepare for the effects they may have on operational plans, as well as financial and human resources.

Re-Imagine Everything
Finding Ways to Improve All Aspects of Your Event
Nothing usually excites event professionals like a blank canvas of change and new possibilities...that we control! If we find that it may realistically be 1 to 3 years before a large, mass-gathering event can safely reopen, this committee explored and researched how we can successfully manage the likely new regulations and hurdles that we will all face as an industry (e.g., safe-distancing, mask requirements, sanitation and other services, temperature checks, limited capacities, et al.) and how we can/might still create/present a new event model(s) that are able to provide the energy, creativity, community participation, sponsor support and activation, etc., that we all desire, while also maintaining financial sustainability.

Festivals - The Drivers to
Re-Connecting Our Communities
Perhaps one of the most positive outcomes of this global pandemic, has been the (re)opening of doors/conversations with many community stakeholders that we may have lost touch with, or never thought to work in partnership with before. We know what our events contribute to our respective communities and that is usually one of the primary personal drivers/rewards for those in our industry. This committee addressed how our events/organizations might lead the efforts to keep our communities bonded during these difficult times, to ensure the long-term health of all events, and how we might work more closely with our cities, other events and organizations, volunteers, artists and vendors, sponsors, et al. to help all of our communities come through this storm stronger and keep all of our events financially secure and healthy.

ABOUT THE IFEA TASK FORCE
In 2020, the IFEA created a Task Force series made up of many of your global peers in order to conduct research on how we can Re-Present, Re-Open, Re-Connect, Re-Imagine and protect the financial sustainability of our Festivals & Events looking forward, both short and long term. Final findings were created and can be found on the IFEA Website. Moving forward, we will be creating additional Task Force groups to address important industry topics.
