When a leading organization for government professionals brought its Annual Conference to Austin, the expectations were sky-high. With a newly appointed Executive Director who had previously served as Austin’s City Manager, this event needed to do more than run smoothly—it had to reflect the very best the city had to offer.
Over six days, 5,000+ attendees gathered for learning, leadership, and connection. With bold ideas and precise planning, the Hosts Global team ensured this cornerstone conference was not only successful—it was unforgettable.
We turned up the Austin flavor—from skyline views to city soundtracks.
Our powerhouse team of Lora and Haley collaborated from the earliest planning stages, crafting a weeklong journey that included a refined leadership dinner, thoughtful venue activations, and a grand finale that brought Austin’s signature energy to life. For the final night, we transformed the Palmer Event Center into a music-festival-inspired celebration, complete with a live band, skyline backdrop, festival bites, and immersive guest experiences.
The client trusted our vision, and in return, we delivered a milestone event that raised the bar—not just for them, but for our own team as well.
“WOW!!! That is all I can say about the finale at the Palmer Events Center! It truly was an amazing event and we thank you for all of the hard work and dedication you put into making it a huge success! It is definitely my most favorite event during my time with the organization (and maybe ever!!)”
