This opening ceremony has evoked strong reactions, both positive and negative. Such polarizing responses are typical for grand, innovative productions deviating from tradition. While some may view it as a departure from the expected grandeur of past ceremonies, it’s essential to recognize that it was designed to engage a new and diverse audience, bringing fresh elements to the stage. Indeed, previous opening ceremonies, such as those in London and Beijing, set high standards with meticulous coordination and cohesive storytelling. This latest event, while controversial, undeniably sparked conversation and interest. It’s a testament to its ambition and attempt to redefine the spectacle for a modern audience. Although it may not have resonated with everyone, the fact that it stirred such debate indicates its impact. Embracing innovation, even when it challenges conventions, can be a way to push boundaries and explore new possibilities. Let’s use this opportunity to reflect on how we can balance innovation with tradition. This balance is crucial in crafting future ceremonies that captivate and inspire all viewers, ensuring a bright future for opening ceremonies. https://lnkd.in/eyszZhjb #OpeningCeremony #InnovativeEvents #EventDesign #Olympics2024 #CeremonialSpectacle #ModernEntertainment #AudienceEngagement #CreativeVision #CulturalImpact #EventProduction #TraditionVsInnovation

✨ Do you want to create a more tailored and immersive event experience? ✅ Divide your participants among multiple venues! Event planners often struggle with the challenge of accommodating large crowds in a single venue. By distributing the event across various locations within #TheHague, planners can optimise space utilisation. This not only ensures a seamless flow of activities but also eliminates the constraints of a singular venue, allowing for a more dynamic and engaging event. For instance, the ability to choose venues like Mauritshuis for classical themes and Postillion Hotels for modern concepts allows for a nuanced approach, enhancing the overall atmosphere and resonating with diverse audience preferences.

Its the eve of the opening of Paris 2024! Its difficult to express quite how much work goes into creating an event of this size, in a world city, across 35 competition venues (and probably another 100 less glamourous but vital non competition venues). Millions of visitors, and many more watching a festival of sport and culture on a completely unequalled scale. The challenges for hosting such an event are huge, it interfaces with virtually every facet of daily life in the host city..... and that needs to be planned probably 135 times over.... and look amazing.... oh and the tickets have been sold, the cameras are on, and the athletes are ready. There is no such thing and an extension of time so you'd better have a workable solution to that issue. Working on projects such as this has a habit of making anything else look "a bit on the small side". Building projects such as this has a habit of making anything else feel "a bit on the slow side" Having people engage and delight at the end result of years of hard work has a habit of making you smile. Hats off to the years of hard work, the late nights, the thinking, the solutions, the dedication, and the end result. At this stage, you probably deserve some caffeine. (nice merch by the way).

Like many, I'm lucky to be heading to the French Riviera next week for Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity. This time I'm eager for a more human approach to the festival - a fresh perspective that reveals the true essence of La Croisette and beyond. These are the things we know about Cannes: It's a visual kaleidoscope 🌈 A sea of serendipity 🌊 A time and place built on conversation + connection 🤝 It's equally inspiring as it is intimidating 💡 😬 The variable isn't the weather, it's the people you meet. Which got me thinking... The B2B world is awash with talk of 'a more human approach', but what does that look like at an individual level and how could that help me navigate the networking? How do you 'do' Cannes in a more considered, empathetic and inclusive way, as you bounce from brands to beaches to bars? This is what Jonathan Izzard found. Nunchi [noon-chi] The Korean art of understanding what people are thinking and feeling at any given moment - literally “measuring with your eyes”. Reading the (whole) room, not just individuals within it - with objectivity and empathy. My Cannes promise is to try to demonstrate more nunchi by: Opening my eyes 👀 Considering everyone 💕 Staying focused 🧘♂️ Really listening 📞 Engaging with empathy 💗 Can(nes) it be done? Watch this space. #CrashingTheCroisette #WindowsIntoWonder #CannesLions

Unveiling the event before it officially begins – our favorite move! By introducing characters that immerse guests in the concept, we’re not just setting the atmosphere; we’re melting the ice of inhibition. The event starts before the curtain rises, and that moment makes each gathering extraordinary. 🚀 #PandAmazingEvents #eventplanning #experientialmarketing #eventdetails
