The jungle beat could be heard all around Australia with ‘The Jungle Club’ popping up in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide, Perth and Hobart for a special telco client. The sounds of over 3,000 guests stomping their feet to lions roaring and snakes hissing made for a series of very lively parties that nobody wanted to end. With lots of tropical decorations and greenery, bright festoon lighting, costumed animal performers and all the sights and delights of a night in the jungle - the guest partied the night away in true end-of-year celebration mode.

Greeted by the Statue of Liberty, a dodgy Rolex hawker, a busking saxophonist and waiters wearing "I LOVE NY" t-shirts, over 800 FMCG guests knew they were in New York for the night. The venue was transformed into 5 distinct party zones; Central Park, the Cosmopolitan Bar (think Sex in the City), a Sports Bar (think Cheers), a basketball court and Little Italy. The partygoers revelled in krumping lessons and were blown away by a feast of entertainers including hip hop dancers, The Rat Pack and La Fiesta. All of this and a sensational menu of authentic American food and beverages made this like a real night in the city that never sleeps.

Producing Australia's National eHealth Conference, in under 4 weeks, was a serious responsibility successfully executed by Event Planet. From conference identity through to invitations, registrations, stage design, production schedules, guest speakers, catering and live web streaming - Event Planet ensured everything was under control from the beginning. With over 400 of Australia's leading health professionals, clinicians and experts in attendance, along with State and Federal Ministers, this event was a key milestone in the National Agenda. The feedback was overwhelmingly positive and confirmed the result - a professional, impressive and tech-savvy event, which has set the benchmark for future medical conferences in Australia. 

Glorious sunshine greeted Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne, Perth and Adelaide for the Paspaley Polo In The City Event Series, throughout November and December. Guests in the Paspaley VIP Marquees, Corporate Marquees and Coopers Bars soaked up the sunshine while watching the polo matches, stomping the divots, snacking on gourmet food and sipping champagne. With over 5,000 guests attending nationwide this was an outstanding success and the largest of its kind to take place in Australia. We look forward to sharing more opportunities to be a part of this event with our clients and subscribers in 2011. 

And a story from 2011 already! The New Year is off to a bright start with Event Planet being officially appointed by the Sydney Cricket Ground Trust to manage a series of Members’ Events during the Ashes clash between Australia and England. Consisting of breakfasts, lunches and post match occasions - each event had its own personalised touch and theme to ensure guests enjoyed a unique experience at every turn. Our lucky staff also had the opportunity to get up close and personal with the McGrath Foundation pink stumps!
