What is inside

Ten mistakes. Ten chances to fix the plan early.

Check the venue before signing, compare the real AV numbers, protect every critical handoff, and build a Plan B for the room, schedule, and show.

01

Read the room before you sign it.

Catch ceiling, rigging, loading, power, screen, and sightline limits while options are still open.

02

Build a schedule that can actually work.

Plan backward from doors so setup, testing, and rehearsal do not disappear.

03

Give show day one clear command path.

Align presenters, content, backups, and decision-makers before the first cue.

Three common event production risks: room, schedule, and show control

Most show-day disasters started weeks earlier.

The dead microphone. The invisible screen. The keynote deck that arrives at 11:47 p.m. They look like technical failures. Usually, they are planning decisions wearing a show-day costume. This guide gives you the questions experienced production teams ask while the answers are still inexpensive.
