Thank you guys for an amazing "How To" guide! Your information is really useful and sums up the most important steps and aspects!

A possible addition could be to include communication. Organizing a big event with loads of engaged and motivated people makes communicating transparently difficult and should be laid emphasis on. Thus, keeping volunteers informed easily through slack or another chat system not only allows you to keep everyone updated but also to quickly be notified about recent changes you have to adapt to.

Personally, I also like to create a timeline prior to the event and hang it up in the office (or virtually, of course). This enables all teammates to have an overview of the next steps at any point in time :) Furthermore, you can use this after the event to improve time management skills by evaluating the planned and actual time.

Resource talk:How to Plan a Large Scale Event

I really enjoyed reading your 'How to' guide! I especially agree with the part about how important it is to ask for feedback during (and before and after) the event from people that went to the event or helped. In this way next editions can continue to improve the layout of the event. From personal experience I've noticed that during new editions of events situations could sometimes have been prevented if the transfer of information about previous events had been executed better and more precisely. Therefore it could be a good idea to sit down with possible predecessors and listen to their tips and tricks before the real organizing begins for the committee.

I really enjoyed reading this how-to page. I have been a part of large scale events before, but wanted to see what suggestions that would be in this article that I have not already tried, and some of these suggestions, like making lists and asking for feedback, are things that I will keep in mind in the future. Thank you!

How about making a sheet to guide a large scale event success?

I enjoyed reading this page. Although we have enough motivation to organize and plan some events, I think there is the problem that ordinary students cannot imagine what they should do first when launching new events. It might disturb them to create fantastic movements at each campus. Then, we should prepare and give them something to guide them to success. I learned business model canvas last spring. I think this planning system might be similar to it. It has key resources, key partners and so on. If there were some sheets to represent event value, partners and others, it could help students to act more positively. It could clarify what we should think and prepare for.

Awesome page! This will definitely help me in my future.

Jadeharris1209: Currently, due to the fact that we are in a pandemic, would there be COVID capacity regulations and documents that must be rectified before-hand? Depending on the size and scale of the event, do you need approval by the local city hall/ state government?

sharing large scale programs

I always wanted to take part a large scale programs/events . But it is very tough to handle when we don't have a proper work sharing. Sharing works as per their capability is the best thing to complete the large scale events. Sharing works not only make the work easier it also reflects the best work which is done by a team as per their capability. Having a checklist is a always a better thing. This will help us to know the work progress and the pending works.
