Plan Ahead for Event Planners and Suppliers Expo

Event planners at all levels of experience can add something new to their bag of tricks at the 17th annual Event Planners and Suppliers Expo, March 4, 2009.

Scheduled from Noon until 7:00 p.m. at the Golden Valley Country Club, the Expo serves as a meeting ground for corporate and association event planners as well as independent party and event planners who connect with the people and companies that supply events.

 “We have hundreds of resources there,” said “Magic Brad”, producer of the expo since 1991  “It’s where the meetings, conventions, tourism, attractions, hospitality and entertainment industries come to shop and do business. We’ve moved to a new and larger location for 2009 and are looking for select suppliers to help with the event, to decorate, help with registration, volunteer, and marketing. We are also looking for some strategic partnerships to help with marketing and promotion.”

Exhibitors include everything from advertising specialties to tour operators.  Show attendees can try out the latest games and inflatables, sample gift baskets and meet with photographers, modeling agencies and limousine services.  On-going seminars and live entertainment round out the one-day event. Golden Valley Country Club is located at, 1700 Golden Valley Road., Golden Valley, MN 55427.

Admission is $6 at the door.  Or “Qualified” planners may pre-register online to attend FREE at http://www.mediamaxevents.com.
