Interning with Peak Events has been nothing but a great experience. Having the opportunity to help with the such a large festival such as Flagstaff Blues and Brews was amazing. I couldn’t have thought of a better way of gaining experience in the event planning field. As interns we saw and got to experience every aspect of what goes into planning a festival. Each of the interns were given different tasks to do throughout the planning process and the day of the event.There is nothing like being able to have hands on experience in something that I want to pursue in the future.
I would have to say my favorite part of the whole planning process was the set up day. It was amazing to see everything that we had been talking about for months was finally coming together. Once everything was set up and the day of the event rolled around it was amazing to see the turn out. Working at the ticket sale booth was great because I got to see almost everyone that was coming out to Flagstaff Blues and Brews on such a perfect day to listen to a greatly selected line up!
I have Jennifer and Debbi to thank for all the hard work that they put into planning this event and for offering up their time to teach myself and the other interns about what the event planning industry is all about.
