Hybrid Event Plan: 7 Steps For Delivering A Successful Event

by | Oct 20, 2022

Creating a hybrid event plan in 2022 is an essential process—the way events are delivered now has changed dramatically, and companies need to adapt.


The world has moved largely online—as a result, the need for in-person events has plummeted.

But people still want a degree of face-to-face interaction, so we have seen a rise in companies and venues hosting hybrid events.

This growing event type combines in-person aspects of a conference with virtual elements like live streaming.

Hybrid events have become necessary because the vast majority of people who are no longer able to travel to conferences.

With flight restrictions out of the country, and even between states—bringing your event into people’s homes and catering to local audiences has never been so important.

Event companies and venues also need to ensure business continuity—and that is why hybrid events have become such an integral part of their strategy.

So, how do you set up a hybrid conference, discussion, or meeting? You need to start with a solid hybrid event plan.

Whatever the size of your event, for it to be a success, you need to identify your goals and communicate strategy with your event team.

We outline how to create a hybrid event plan that will help you deliver a successful conference.

  1. Project Manage Your Hybrid Event Plan
  2. Setting Goals for Your Hybrid Event Plan
  3. Use Mind Maps in Your Hybrid Event Plan
  4. Enlist Managers for Hybrid Event Planning
  5. Agile Hybrid Event Plans
  6. Build Communication into Hybrid Event Plans
  7. Include Tools in Your Hybrid Event Plans
  8. Your first step for delivering a successful event is to look at it as a project that you have to manage.

With that in mind, you should create a hybrid event plan. Note that visual communication has become more important in an increasingly remote world.

You want to create one comprehensive document that event teams, venues, and suppliers can refer to during the planning process.

Our core mantra, as an event agency, is to bring people together for the purpose of learning, activating, informing, rewarding and celebrating through live experiences.

A big Thank you to our wonderful host, Harrison Sutherland-Brook , for welcoming the team to the London Hilton on Park lane last week!
