Ignite your
audience’s passion.

Events are a powerful way to give your audience an engaging and immersive experience that ignites their passion for your message.

We’re here to help you pull that off. 

Planning an event will be fun, right?

It should be.

However, here is what we know from experience: 

Events are high-stakes, high-visibility projects that demand attention to a million little details.

For such complex projects, companies typically under-resource events in staff, budget…or both.

  • How will I find a venue that’s just right?

  • How will we manage guest registration?

  • Where do I even start?

Attending to all the little details can pull your attention away from the big picture where your insight is needed most. 

You deserve a partner who knows how to get it right—and knows how to make it fun.

 FAQs

  • Kennedy Events is a global event company with headquarters in San Francisco, California. We go where our clients go.

  • We like to say it’s never too early to start planning your event. Keep in mind that the closer to the event date you begin the planning process, the more decisions you will need to make within a limited time frame. Ideally, we recommend you start the planning process 6 months prior to your event, but we’ve been known to work at supersonic speed.

  • That depends on your goal. And that’s what our discovery phase is all about. It’s vital to design your event around your goals, so by exploring what is most important to you and your audience, your budget becomes a reflection of what parts of the event are most critical to you.
