Good news! We have extended our Call for Speakers until October 8th, 2021 in order to give all of our talented would-be speakers additional time to perfect their proposals. So now's your chance to be one of them!
Take a moment and submit your great idea and topic for Catersource and The Special Event 2022 held May 2-5 in Anaheim, CA. It’s going to be a sun-drenched conference loaded with fresh, impactful content, business building and knowledge sharing and we want to hear from you now so we can build our best program yet!
Where & When: May 2 to 5, 2022 in Anaheim, CA at the Anaheim Convention Center. You can immerse yourself in a spectacular event that encompasses everything catering and event related. The alliance of these powerful, established brands will bring unique industry all-stars from both worlds – under one roof for four momentous days.
Our Audience: Our audience is in the business of helping people celebrate the most important milestones in their lives. They are on and off-premise, executing private parties to multiple day festivals, hiring food trucks, and ensuring a safe and successful day for all. Those in the event industry are some of the hardest working people in business today. Our audience is comprised of top-level professionals who have been in the industry a long time, but also may bring new hires, and/or recently promoted planners, managers, and salespeople. Attendees may be representing a small company in a big town, a big company in a small town or a $500 million dollar company in a densely populated metro area. But they are all at The Special Event Show for the same reason: to be wowed with new products, new education, new ideas—and network, too.
How to Apply: Go to https://tse2022.catersource-cfp.com/ for all ther details, and some ideas to get you thinking about the kind of session you'd like to present.
The Education: Over 120+ sessions will span the length of the conference, within tracks such as:
- Business & Professional Development
- C Level Executives
- Design
- Event Management
- Event Technology
- Sales & Marketing
- Weddings
- Event Health & Safety
