The most important conversations in our industry don’t happen over email or across a social feed. 🤝 That’s why Eventex Summit is returning to a physical stage for the first time since 2017.

On November 3–4, 2027, Eventex Summit is heading to Vienna, bringing together the creators, strategists, and decision-makers who shape the world’s most impactful conferences, brand experiences, festivals, and live productions. It’s two days of shared insights, organic networking, and high-value conversations.

While the full agenda is currently taking shape, the reasons to put Vienna on your radar are already clear:
🏆 Celebrate Excellence: See award-winning work up close and hear directly from the creative minds and producers behind the year's most celebrated projects.
🤝 Meet the Best: Tap into curated meetings and social formats built for authentic, high-level connections with peers and senior industry decision-makers.
🚀 Build What’s Next: Walk away with concrete partnerships and measurable business impact that elevate your agency or brand.

From the opening session to the final curtain, it’s built to put exceptional work—and the people behind it—in the spotlight they’ve earned.
Official registration hasn’t opened yet, but the waitlist is now live. 🎟️ at eventex.com/summit by @eventex.global

Turn your fans into brand ambassadors.🤝

In an all-digital world, face-to-face connection is still the most powerful way to build lasting relationships with your audience. But hosting an event isn't enough, you have to design for real impact, not just for "event's sake".

Will AI kill live events? 🤖
Think again. As Leon Winkler from Ubisoft points out, humans have an innate need to interact with people, especially like-minded individuals in physical spaces. Technology can complement the experience, but live events are here to stay.

Episode 2 is here. 🎙️
This time, host @lauraschwartzlive sits down with Leon Winkler @drsleon , Senior Director of International Events at Ubisoft, for an unfiltered conversation about building live experiences in gaming — from E3 and Gamescom to the ideas that worked, the ones that didn’t, and the lessons that came from both.

Across the episode, they get into:
→ How Leon combined gaming, hip-hop and esports in a Ubisoft experience featuring T-Pain and Lil Yachty
→ Why he believes in-person experiences matter more than ever, even as brands continue to chase digital reach
→ How he turned hours of queueing at Gamescom into part of the experience instead of treating it as dead time
→ What happened when a Ubisoft party left executives stuck in an elevator and hundreds of guests outside
→ Why agencies and clients share responsibility when an event goes wrong
→ How he uses AI as a creative sparring partner without letting it replace human ideas
→ What makes an Eventex Awards entry stand out from the crowd
It’s a conversation about bold ideas, audience experience, event failures, creative risk, and why sometimes the smallest detail can make the biggest impact.

What’s the most OVERRATED event trend? 🛑
Flashy, oversized builds and booking talent just for the sake of it. As Danielle Medeiros points out, attendees aren't looking for over-packed panels - they want space to connect, network, and learn from like-minded peers.

Packed rooms and attendance goals are great, but is that where event success ends? 📈 ✨ 

Sure, packed rooms and attendance goals matter, but after months of planning and content curation, the value shouldn't be limited to just the people in the room. It’s time to rethink how we measure event success.

Are you designing events for people to watch, or to take part in?
The best events of 2026 didn't have an audience—they had participants. Among Platinum-winning entries in the Eventex Awards, 14× more featured audience action as a structural part of the experience rather than an optional add-on.

Take Stranger Things Warsaw as an example: visitors didn't watch the story—they caused it to move. The result? 5,000+ guests, zero paid media, and 13.1 million organic impressions. @cudostudio

To build true participatory formats into your next event:
☑️ Define the audience's role before anything else
☑️ Make the interface so simple it needs no instruction
☑️ Make participation matter beyond the moment
☑️ Measure what people did—not only whether they enjoyed it

Swipe through the carousel to see how award-winning experiences turn audiences into co-creators. :point_down:

You cannot replicate human connection.🤝 ✨ 
AI might help with the spreadsheets and decks, but it’s never going to replace the magic of bringing people together in the same room.

It’s here. 🎙️ The Eventex Podcast has officially launched.
And for Episode 1, host Laura Schwartz sits down with Danielle Medeiros, Global Head of Industry Tentpole Experiences, Events & Exec Engagement COE at LinkedIn, for an unfiltered conversation about what it takes to build experiences at global scale — and what happens when the plan doesn’t survive contact with reality.
@lauraschwartzlive

Across the episode, they get into:
→ Why Danielle thinks the value of an event should be measured beyond who was in the room
→ The 250-person dinner where the caterer didn’t show up, and what she did with only hours to go
→ What happens when a venue cuts capacity on the day and confirmed guests are already arriving
→ Where AI is genuinely useful in event production, and where Danielle believes human creativity still matters most
→ Why creators are becoming an increasingly important part of the event experience
It’s a conversation about scale, pressure, creativity, crisis management, and the decisions that rarely make it into the finished case study.
