Agencies host Events and Festivals Consortium

The free workshop is open to any organization that hosts a festival and plans events.

“It is a perfect networking and informational workshop for PTAs and directors of parks and recreation departments, and committee leaders,” said Tammy Proctor, director of Pender County Tourism.

Olivia Dawson, coordinator of the N.C. Blueberry Festival, will lead a session about conducting pageants for festivals that want to crown a festival court.

GigSalad, a company that books entertainment, will give tips about bringing affordable entertainment to a venue. Appy City, a company that develops mobile apps, will talk about free apps for festivals and events.

The last session will be a panel discussion about best practices for festivals and events.

RSVP for the workshops are required by Nov. 2; call 910-259-1536.
