Marketers working in events know one thing: scaling success isn’t easy. EVERYWHERE is the first and only conference built specifically for you: the field marketers, local store marketers, and event-focused brand builders managing promotions and trying to scale.

This 1.5-day summit brings together professionals from regional and national event organizations, bar crawl brands, concert promoters, sports teams, field marketing departments, and more to share what’s working, what’s next, and how to build smarter, faster, and further-reaching event marketing programs.

What to Expect:

• Tactical panels and peer-led TableTalks on influencer marketing, local media, guerrilla tactics, automation, AI, and campaign measurement
• Real stories from marketers who scaled grassroots efforts into national playbooks
• Smart networking with others doing marketing for events (no small talk required)
• One-of-a-kind Omaha experiences: welcome party, after party at iconic Omaha location to-be-announced soon, and a “Midwest Goodbye” breakfast sendoff

Whether you're managing a venue, store openings, hundreds of concerts, or coordinating marketing for a national brand activation tour, this event is built for you.
