@@JamieWhite I have a question so I saw this video tonight and I am trying to host my first big gospel concert. I’m trying to think about using a church or an arena. The reason why I want to use an arena because some of the churches are not allowing people to use their facility and then it is a little bit of irritating for me lol because I have the venues that’s not churches that let’s just say that is like Xfinity center in Maryland where I live at but sometime those venues don’t answer their emails or different stuff like that what I’m trying to say is how do you deal with that when people consistently do not answer or the answer you at their own time or they give you a facility paper but they said it’s not a contract but you have doubts that it is. What do you do with that? It’s a lot to it that I’m trying to figure out as well. I’m trying to get my artist to respond and then they don’t sometimes but it’s the same as the venues even trying to get sound people and backline instrument sometimes people answered sometimes people don’t, but how do you deal with all that without getting irritated for your first event like this, as I stated about my first gospel concert event
Hey Jamie Great video. I've given myself 2 years to organise my 1st marathon for 150 participants and the hardest part for me is getting all the legal information.
Am organizing my first book festival but don't have anyone in the game to bounce my ideas off. Your video was the first source of advice. Thanks for the tips.
I don’t think so, I’m not going into this thinking I’m gonna crash. I’ll learn everything I need down to a tee, get a team & do it. Don’t need negative expectations
Yes! Thank you for this! Ive always loved to plan and help coordinate things and planning my first event for November and I'm excited but nervous. But, this was so helpful! Edit: The event went great! All went well and I'm excited to begin planning events regularly!
nice one to you too! Yes; Ive been doing some events too online etc Coaching sessions! Learnt so much from doing em! 😃 +im writing back to ask ANYONE HERE TBH; how was it? what kinda events? and, on/offline? how many ppl attending? how much do you charge etc? :)@@labelsandlife
Hi, do you suggest potentially joining a small organization that host events to gain the experience through them, and then potentially moving out on my own?
Im organizing my first race. It's an 8 hour looped course in a small town in Western N.C. It will be held on the anniversary of Hurricane Helene and will be a trek through woods that were decimated by the storm. I've never organized a race, but have run over 100 half marathons, a few marathons, and a host of other races. It's a small town, and can only hold about 140 runners. It's a race to raise money for the town's parks that were destroyed by the hurricane. We're giving out long sleeved t shirts as a swag for the race, but am keeping it pretty low key. I would love to have a list of things to do, and things to purchase. Ive never even hosted a birthday party, so I feel like Im out of my league, but really feel God pulling me to do this, and quite honestly Im more afraid of not listening than I am of failing at the organization of it. I guess they would be the same thing though.
reallllly helpfulll i wanted to host a real bigggggggggggggggg show and after seeing this im gonna NOT do that and earn my way to the big stuff thank you ! def subscribing !!
Hi! Watching from Alaska and right off the bat I knew you had a Dublin accent! Almost even a little more southern than Dublin. My dad is from Cork! Thanks for this video! I know you make a ton of videos but you didn’t start your video with an intro! No hello or anything! But lots of info! Thank you thank you!
I'm only here because of a fantasy that will never happen ie book launch party and watching this as I rot in a council flat without any prospects, any friends, any family, any ideas, any clarity BUT I would so love to be one of these successful people who win at life.
One suggestion would be to try and change your self talk, and old programming per say. There is a lot of Power in our words and thoughts. You may consider creating a vision board, practice visualizing your event being successful. And for me, I always ask God of the Universe for guidance. For all who believe in their hearts, God is faithful to answer our prayers🙏. Praying you will experience all of Gods amazing gifts: Love, Happiness, Joy, Peace, Prosperity, Strength, Wisdom, and Patience❤️🙏❤️
I’m 13 and I’m interested in event planning and I have a lot of opportunities in relation to it but I don’t know where to start I’ve been told to research which I’m doing but I don’t know the next steps to take, any advice ? I’m thinking of around 50 people for my first event or maybe less but I have some connections with Venues and I’ll be earning the money from tickets and the venue earns the money from the bar
So I am thinking if hosting a free event to the public i know it sounds dumb but I like seeing everyone happy and having a good time it makes me happy. Now I was thinking for this coming easter. My worries is if i promote it and people see it and then all of a sudden a bunch of people show up like how do I calculate for that how to know how many are going to come.
If you have an online registration that can help you keep somewhat of a count & if you get too many attendees you can switch your venue or close tickets.
Hey i am going to host soon. I am mostly doing a comparing thing being on stage and saying stuff. Its my first time doing this. I want some advise on how to not have any kind of nervousness and keep my self calm and confident.
Hello I have a quick question my business partner and I just started are company Horoscopes Entertainment and we have thrown are first event and we did just that. Now we want to throw another one. However we were going to throw a Thanksgiving night event but so many other people or events are happening now should we still throw ours?
Absolutely, there will always be others out there doing their own thing. Don't let them get in the way of you doing yours. Instead, take inspiration from them and get out there!
Lol, I have a birthday party with 150 people. I'm scared but the best thing about it I can do everything long as it's the 70s and color black, sliver and white.
Hello Jamie Am planning an pop up film and photography exhibition any advance on what I need to really focus on to create a good experience for the attendees?
It really depends on what kind of event you’re going to host ana how well resourced you are but as a principle stay well within yourself comfort zone for event 1
Thank you that is a good rule of thumb! I want to organizing a networking brunch social so just trying to set realistic expectations for myself. Thank you!
@@JamieWhite Not sure what I was referring to. Perhaps that a Stageline SL100 (24x20) is a much more cost efficient stage than someone trying to bring in a huge artist with a hella production rider, (which would be on a SAM 550 or higher). Much cheaper audio and lighting package as well.
Hi Jamie how are you ? I'm Year 3 student at Bangor university my name is Dior, my questions is what type of event you suggest to my group 12 people make our first event to complete our degree from events management module.
How much will it cost me to host a dj night event in 5star hotel venue with: What will these things cost me Venue Lights Catering Dj Promotion Is there anything else

Thank you so much
Underrated comment.
If you wanna host your first event with 1000 people God bless you, you’re gonna have a mental breakdown, LOL
If people have your mindset then yes you will have a mental break down 😂
So I’m planing a massive event in Leeds already feeling the stress of getting it in budget 😂😂😂
My first real event was with 1,500 lol, I think I did have a bit of a breakdown bringing it to life but thankfully it worked out well.
my first event was with 1100 people at 18yo, I've never been so stressed in my life

Thanks Jamie. Best advice I've gotten on RUclips
Glad to help, I really appreciate this. Thank you.
My first ever event was 380 people and it was nuts but so much fun when it turned out amazing.
Would it be a good idea to sell tickets for the event early and use that money to pay for the event space?
This has been helpful, thanks.
Glad it was helpful!
Great info & reminders. Thanks!
You are so welcome!

Great advice Jamie 👍
Should I throw events first ? Then start a music festival after?

The biggest value you can bring them, is a good time. If you like, we can have a chat. Just book in a time here: jamiewhite.com/work-with-me/
Great information!!
Thanks Yoga Girl. It's been a while since you posted this comment. How are you getting on?
If your hosting/organizing your first event would you say 30-50 max is a good cap for how many people should come to the event?
It really depends on what kind of event you’re going to host ana how well resourced you are but as a principle stay well within yourself comfort zone for event 1
Thank you that is a good rule of thumb! I want to organizing a networking brunch social so just trying to set realistic expectations for myself. Thank you!
@@JamieWhite Is an event of 600 people recommended for my first event?
Just one question. How much should we expect to invest into making an event (money wise)?
Same question!!!
I am really interested in this area. From Nigeria
Should drop more videos like this
More coming soon.
Thankyou!!
You're welcome!
What about the difficulties of getting the work experience or practical?
Wow interesting point
Glad you think so!

It's educative
Thank you x
A lot of people told me to start my first event, they say do it with the people I know
Soooo go with the SL100 rather than the SAM 550 😬
How do you mean? I'm a bit confused.
