Calendar fragment shaped sheet with crossed-out numbers Getting an event up is obviously difficult with covid. Capacity constraints and other restrictions put the breaks on the events industry in 2020 and 2021 and souring case numbers have rocked us again in 2022. I do spot a trend and a window of opportunity when it comes to scheduling an event. The best chance of running a face-to-face business event is to have a lead time of 1-2 months and book everything as soon as case numbers just start to decline. Our record number of reschedules for a client is 7 (we still haven't run their event which is now 9 months late), but we have run multiple events on the client's preferred dates. There's obviously no guarantees, but short lead events booked just as case numbers decline looks like the best option.
