Impact Events

Weddings, festivals and corporate events in the Okanagan

Weddings, festivals and conferences all fall within the work of Impact Events, which runs events, public relations and brand management under one roof. It is based in Kelowna in British Columbia's Okanagan Valley and plans and executes everything from small private events and weddings to large festivals, corporate events and conferences. The company says its events are built to fit the client's brand and to meet the expectations of guests, with attention to detail throughout.

Public relations and brand management

The brand side of the business aims to keep clients top of mind in their sector and to help them stand out from competitors. The company designs a program that gets a client's message out, focusing on current business trends to reach its audience. Public relations work builds a client's profile, while brand management looks after the way a brand appears in everything it does. The company works with individuals, small businesses and corporations across the province. It says its fundraising, sponsorship and corporate work rests on the same mix of planning, production and public relations, so that each event also supports the client's wider brand.

Conferences, fundraising and sponsorship

Conference production covers planning and managing conferences, and the company also runs fundraising events and sponsorship programs designed to raise money and attract sponsors. Its social media management service looks after a client's presence across channels, and product demonstrations and marketing administration complete the list of services. The agency is associated with signature events in the region, including the Kelowna Wine Country Half Marathon, the Kelowna Car and Bike Show and the Rutland Light Up Festival.

Offices in Kelowna and Vancouver

The firm keeps offices in Kelowna and Vancouver, which it says lets it serve most areas of British Columbia. The company says its work is designed to make a brand effective in reaching its target audience, whether the client is an individual, a small business or a corporation.
