Event Type
There are three different event sizes.
This impacts budget, venue, requirements, and expectations: Small Events, Mid-Sized Events, and Large Events.
Here's an overview. 👇
Small Events | Mid Size Events | Large Events | |
---|---|---|---|
For Whom | You're new to hosting events | You have some events experience | You're a pro at hosting events |
Attendees | 8-30 Attendees | 31-100 Attendees | >100 Attendees |
Funding Available | $100 | $500 | $1,000+ |
Requirements | Citizen Cred | Citizen Cred | Pre-Approval required. Must have hosted 2 successful Mid Size Events previously. |
If you're just getting started with your first event as a host, we recommend you start with hosting a small event. If you have some experience organizing and hosting a couple of events in the past, the mid-sized event type would be an ideal event to choose. Both of these event types will give you the confidence to run your first and future successful events.
Hosting a larger event can be more complicated, and will require that you have several volunteers, especially if you have multiple speakers and activities at the event.
Pro tip: Regardless of the size of an event, keep it simple! is easier for you to manage, and for your attendees and speakers to participate. Don't over complicate things, and get a couple of friends to help.
