Look Behind the Curtains of Hotel Event Production to See How Mind-Blowing Events Come Together
Amazing events don’t just happen. They take:
Careful planning
Thoughtful details
An expert touch
In fact, more of the coolest events — from wild pool parties and iconic happy hours to New Year’s Eve bashes and beyond — are taking place at luxury hotels, both boutique and big-name hotels alike.
Here’s how hotels are redefining the event experience and what happens behind the scenes to bring the most talked about hotel events to life.
1. Transformative Sound
Informing the mood and overall vibe of an event, the sound can be both a draw and a mainstay, creating immersive vibes that are captivating, unique, and alluring.
From more formal events to laid-back private parties, transformative sound can take the form of:
Background music to welcome guests
Subtle soundtracks to move events forward, ramp up the energy, or bring an event to a close
Live music, bands, instrumentals, and singers for more visceral sound experiences that can electrify events
Various equipment and systems, including AV equipment and microphones to support the event’s sound needs while accounting for venue-specific parameters
2. Next-Level Entertainment
The most memorable events don’t just have sound that sticks with you. They also expose guests to jaw-dropping entertainment and extraordinary experiences that they simply won’t get the chance to enjoy elsewhere (or very often).
That can include (and is not limited to):
Themed entertainers and costumed performers who fully act the part: Guests can take a trip back in time, across the ocean, or into the future with a group of customed performers who interact with them and create mesmerizing experiences.
Magicians and sidekicks with fully stage shows, as well as one-off tricks to share circulating with party guests: Event attendees can be wowed with mind-bending tricks, stunts, and optical illusions that are both fun and riveting.
Dancers and performing troupes with fascinating routines that can be customized to fit different stages or event needs: From ballet and modern dance to ballroom, swing, and more, professional dancers can jazz up an event with a novel inspiring element.
Cigar rollers and other specialty service providers to deliver first-class, ultra-luxury touch to any event: Every guest can feel like a high roller when they experience highly personalized touches and the finest extras.
3. Skilled Sound & Events Pros
Bringing everything together, experienced sound and events professionals can be the real secret weapons behind the coolest events in hotels and other hot venues in Chicago, Denver, Portland, Dallas, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Miami, Houston, and beyond.

Because they know how to align, activate, and amplify the right elements to bring the coolest events to life, creating the best sound and truly exceptional experiences.
In fact, behind the scenes, music event pros can take care of all sorts of essentials, like (but not limited to):
Initial venue visits to plan for sound equipment needs
