What does it take for an organization to host a successful fundraising event when the logistics are anything but simple?

In today's episode, I talk with Austin Parks Foundation Vice President of Marketing and Communications Katie Kennedy, and Events Manager Caitlyn Denham to talk about the upcoming Party for the Parks.

Held on the grounds of Zilker Park, one of the green spaces supported by the Austin Parks Foundation, Party for the Parks takes place between the two weekends of the Austin City Limits Music Festival. This exclusive event offers a rare opportunity to experience the expansive festival grounds in a private, after-hours setting, alongside just 400 fellow attendees.

Katie and Caitlyn share a wealth of valuable insights on everything from creating a seamless guest experience in a large venue, to crafting effective messaging for a unique event that both retains and attracts donors. They also dive into the process of booking high-profile musicians and much more. This is one episode you won’t want to miss.
