To commemorate 80 years in business, Revel Global Events produced “Around the World in 80 Years” – a theme centered around planes, trains and automobiles. This family friendly, unique experience for a special corporate client was set against the backdrop of iconic Soldier Field.
Since the inaugural Bricks and Ivy Ball (the largest fundraising effort of the year) five years ago, Revel Global Events has been the Cubs Charities’ event management company of choice. We produce several fundraisers each year including Rizzo’s Cook Off for Cancer, Maddon’s Main Event and Lester’s Game Show.
The inaugural Wood Family Foundation Storybook Gala was themed around Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. From catering to décor, each corner of Moonlight Studios featured a nod to the classic movie. Oompa Loompas danced throughout the evening, hors d’oeuvres were passed on Golden Tickets and giant lollipops, and pop up musicians performed on a stage wrapped like a cake. Guests also enjoyed a “lickable wallpaper” fruit wall installation, a mashable brittle bar, and neon cotton candy at the psychedelic after party.
When Emirates Airline announced their ninth destination in the United States, a non-stop flight from Chicago to Dubai, they searched for a management company to oversee the entire campaign. As Chicago’s premier event marketing and production agency, Revel Global Events was the obvious choice. Our unrivaled knowledge of the city, relationships with some of the most influential Chicagoans and unique and detailed execution plan secured us the spot as Emirate’s official Chicago events team.
We’re not holiday card kind of people. During the season most of the industry is spread pretty thin- so we tried to think of another way to give back. We wanted an event to bring friends, family, colleagues, competition and clients together where people would say, “holy shit this is fun.” So we thought in terms of a universal language: football and #Revelbowl was born.
The Revel Global Events team designed and managed the event elements for a Michelob Ultra commercial shoot that featured actors and brand ambassadors climbing a rock wall disguised as a billboard, to access a cool party on the rooftop of a popular, South Beach hotel.
A Chicago trading firm wanted to create an event that would not only celebrate 20 years in business, but also thank employees in way that was both sentimental and outrageously fun.
In just a matter of a few weeks, we threw a Champagne and Sh*tkickers Surprise birthday bash complete with a trailer servicing Shake Shack, a DJ spinning from a vintage pick up and an entirely customized country concert featuring Sugarland and Sara Evans.
The 606 was a decade in the making. When the public trail was ready to be unveiled, the planning committee sought to create an inaugural Gala that would celebrate the transformation of this historical railroad into a much needed green space for the city, a trail that would connect four neighborhoods. The event needed to match the tone of the public’s anticipation.
