Imagine
having an exciting high-paying job that lets you use your creativity
to organize fun and important events. Welcome to the world
of event planning!

An
event planner is, quite simply, someone who organizes events. When you
think of an "event" you may think of something spectacular, such as the:
-
Academy
Awards
-
Mardi
Gras
-
Super
Bowl
-
Presidential
Inauguration
-
New
Year's festivities in Times Square
-
Any
other major events we hear about or see on television
Event
planners are needed for all these events. Event planners also work on thousands
of smaller events. Any time people gather together for a purpose, someone
is needed to oversee all the details to ensure the event happens and that
it is a success. That "someone" could be you! As an event planner,
you might plan:
-
Award
events
-
Charity
fundraisers
-
Conferences
-
Exhibitions
-
Fashion
shows

Fairs

Social
events

Sporting
events

Trade
shows
-
Or
many other types of events
