✨🎉 Fun Shows: A Key Part of Successful Kids' Events 🎉✨ Amazing and fun shows are an essential part of any successful kids' event. They add a lot of joy and interaction for everyone, making the event unforgettable! 🌟 I love choosing and gathering special characters to create shows that match each event I organize. This is something enjoyable and creative for me. 🎭🎈 #KidsEvents #FunAndInteraction #UnforgettableMemories

When you are planning events, it's not enough to tell people what to expect, you have to SHOW people what to expect. Check out this video from Twice Media Productions, LLC on how you can leverage videos to make your event an unforgettable experience Tiffany L. Williams

Rather than pick for yourself, ask for volunteers……. Serving as an Event Host can be fun and exciting. It entails engaging the audience and making sure the event runs smoothly. Some of the ways you can keep your audience busy is introducing Ice-breakers. This can come in form of Games, Questions and Answers, Trends, Personal Experience, etc. For me,,,,,, Questions/Answers, Rearranging words, Trends and Personal Experiences does the trick, But in course of serving, I’ve discovered that a lot of people react differently to Questions/Answers. Some are jolly good fellows (whether they get the answer right or wrong, they are excited),Some persons cannot handle stage fright, some feel embarrassed when picked to respond to a question and for some, their mood determines their response……… To be on the safe side as the Event Host, I do not call out people, I’d rather ask generally or call for volunteers. What would you rather do, if you were to serve as anEvent Host? #Eventhost #Educator #DictionCoach #TeensChildrenCoach

🔥 What’s REALLY working in the events world? If you’re feeling like the events you're running aren’t hitting the mark, you’re not alone. I'm getting real about what’s working and what’s just not cutting it anymore. Dive in and tell me—what’s your biggest event challenge right now? Drop your thoughts in the comments and let’s get the conversation going!

THE ESSENTIALS FOR A GREAT EVENT Let’s get one thing straight—safe events are boring events. If you're in the business of ‘just fine,’ feel free to keep doing what everyone else is doing. But if you’re here to make an impact, it’s time to start thinking differently. At Straight Street Event Services, we believe in shaking things up. This isn’t about ticking boxes or following the old playbook. This is about creating something unforgettable. Inside, we break down what truly matters: Tech Won’t Save You (But It Can Bury You) Creativity Is Not a Buzzword, It’s a Requirement A Comfortable Event Is an Unremarkable One Communication That Actually Happens The Audience Isn't Just Watching, They're Part of It If you’re ready to stop settling, it’s time to talk. Because playing it safe is boring, and boring doesn’t win. Get in touch with us today and see the Straight Street Event Services difference for yourself. #greatevents #eventpros #audiovisual #liveevents

🔥The first stories ever told were shared around a fire.🔥 From the earliest days of our ancestors, storytelling has been how we connect, learn, and evolve. It’s instinctual—gathering to share experiences, exchange ideas, and inspire action that propels us forward. Audrey Buchanan from The Woods Productions and Cara (Bubes) Stahl from Aura Experiences captured this idea beautifully in our recent webinar all about designing events that stimulate both emotion and intellect. This is the essence of meetings and events. It’s more than just logistics or programming; it’s about creating a space where authentic connection happens—whether that’s around a literal fire or a modern-day equivalent. Today, as event professionals, we’re not just organizing gatherings. We’re reigniting the oldest and most profound human tradition: coming together to share knowledge, entertain, and move forward together. 🌟 Check out the full recap of our conversation to dive deeper into how these ideas are reorienting the way events are designed, bringing it back to what truly resonates with audiences at their core.

Today, it feels more real than ever... Today marks a significant milestone on my journey to TEDxWinnipeg: tickets went on sale. As I watched sales open, the weight of what's to come definitely hit me. The countless hours of thought, the effort poured into every word, and the desire to truly connect and make an impact—it's all becoming incredibly real. This journey, while uniquely mine, shares elements common to all of us. Whether it's a project deadline, a new venture, or personal goals, we've all faced that moment where the abstract becomes tangible. It's both exhilarating and daunting. Today, as I refine my talk and hone my message, I'm reminded of the work that lies ahead. The excitement of sharing this stage with amazing speakers and an engaged audience fuels my drive. So, to everyone out there working towards something important, something bigger than themselves: I hope you embrace the journey. The nerves, the excitement, the hard work—it's all part of making your dream a reality. As tickets to #TEDxWinnipeg go on sale, and as I continue to prepare for June 6th at the Prairie Theatre Exchange, I'm filled with gratitude for this opportunity to grow, share, and connect. Let's all keep pushing forward, refining our drafts, whether they're speeches, projects, or personal goals. The reality of our efforts is setting in, but so is the potential to inspire and be inspired.
