Event Information
RTO4 is excited to launch Festival Lab; Skills & Strategies, a new, free webinar series geared toward Event Organizers. Festival Lab is a lunchtime webinar series where your peers share how they have tackled specific challenges—everything from volunteer burnout and demand-based ticketing to managing extreme summer heat.
If you are short on time but looking for tactical solutions, Festival Lab is built for you. Each one-hour session features two rapid-fire case studies from Ontario festivals. No theory—just what worked, what didn’t, and what you can try next.
Each session crosses multiple topic areas, including marketing, risk management, and sustainability.
