Determination of the goals and objectives of the festival, the choice of the concept of the holiday
When deciding to hold a festival, it is important to clearly understand: what is the event intended for and what results do you plan to achieve with the help of it? The format of the event also depends on this.
Selection of a venue for the festival
Holding an open festival requires a large space, a well-developed infrastructure (for the convenience of guests), as well as meeting all the necessary technical conditions.
Coordination with city authorities
You must obtain permission from the local authorities to host the holiday before you begin your preparations. In this case, the event will be fully sanctioned, and the authorities, in turn, will take care of the safety of the festival and involve the police and the Ministry of Emergency Situations to prevent and eliminate possible riots.
Drawing up a plan and schedule of the event
Conducting show festivals, like any other event, requires clear regulations and scenarios: the opening date of the festival, duration, scenario of the entertainment program, organization of festival contests, etc.
Budgeting
It is important to understand what the budget of the event is and from what sources the funds can be obtained: registration fee for participants, the cost of entrance tickets, funds from the organizers themselves and the help of sponsors of the event.
Inviting participants
Now it is necessary to determine the target audience of the festival participants, conduct an advertising campaign, invite the participants and provide them with living conditions, transfer, meals, etc.
