What do event services include?

The right event coordinator can help take the stress out of planning, execution, and even documentation. However, hiring the wrong one will cost you time, money, and peace of mind. This isn’t just about skill or work ethic. There are plenty of different event organisers. While there is a handful who can work on every type of event, most professionals have a specific niche that they have mastered. Here are some kinds of events that Taskers can help you with:

Live shows

While guests are wowed by dazzling lights, flashy performances, and a dance-worthy playlist, there’s a lot of magic happening in the background to make sure that the equipment is inside the venue at the correct time for setup, all expenses are accounted for, and everyone in the artistic team and cast gets a bouquet of flowers on opening night.

With live shows, the terms event organiser and production manager may be used interchangeably, but they can have different tasks. For example, an event organiser can be in charge of the whole activity, including finances and paperwork, while a production manager ensures that performances are never out of cue.

Corporate events

A corporate event coordinator has a knack for bringing some pizazz to an otherwise dull company activity! From holiday parties for employees to high-stake product launches with investors, your Tasker can make sure that guests will be happy. You don’t have to worry about finding a caterer who can prepare delicious food for the whole company or bake cupcakes with your brand logo on them! Your event organiser can even help prepare the receipts for budget liquidation and accounting.

Trade shows and bazaars

Sale events can be stressful, but event and trade show coordinators can efficiently manage them. They can assign booths to your exhibitors without forgetting anyone! You’d be surprised at how much headache that can give you if it happens. Experienced events assistants can also accurately estimate how many hours and staff are needed for ingress and egress. Some Taskers can help you with booking accommodation for VIP guests, too!

Weddings and parties

Hiring a communications and events coordinator is not just for business meetings. Weddings, birthdays, and all of your life milestones should be celebrated without additional stress on you! Some Taskers specialise in family-oriented gatherings. They can ensure that aunts and uncles who get along well are at one table when arranging seating for reception or that rings are not misplaced before the ceremony.

In the digital age, a lot of us only see the picture-perfect result after, but it takes a lot of energy and skill to keep guests in any event happy throughout. Hire a professional via Airtasker, and let yourself freely enjoy the celebration.

We are looking for an experienced stage lighting technician or someone with professional lighting setup experience to assist us at our church in Lynbrook, VIC. We have an existing stage lighting setup in the area where our choir performs and where preaching takes place.

Budget and Pricing: We are flexible with pricing and happy to discuss a reasonable arrangement. We would prefer someone to visit our church first, assess our existing equipment and advise us on what needs to be adjusted, improved or purchased. From there, we can discuss the overall cost based on the work required, any additional equipment and the time involved.

I’m looking for someone to help with kitchen clean-up and tidying at a relaxed 40th birthday dinner at my home. Hours are 6pm–9pm (3 hours). Main tasks include clearing dishes after dinner, loading/unloading the dishwasher, hand washing where needed, wiping kitchen benches, and keeping the kitchen tidy throughout the evening. Most items will be disposable. This is not a cooking role — all food will already be prepared (spit roast meats and salads). I may also need occasional help keeping drinks topped up for guests (soft drinks, champagne/beer) if needed. The aim is simply to take pressure off me as the host so I can enjoy the night with guests. Must be comfortable working in a busy social home environment. Previous hospitality or event experience is preferred but not essential.

Kacie was super lovely and respectful. She did as I needed without me needing to interfere, and she did a great job. Highly recommended 💜
