StarEvents made it possible for Loyola University to host a large scale community event. They managed all of the logistics so that we could focus on our guests and our goals. Money well spent!
Loyola University Chicago
StarEvents is professional, respectful and adheres to timelines through tactful and efficient planning. Anyone who has had the opportunity to work with StarEvents to produce an event large or small is truly fortunate, as they repeatedly create a well run event with creative changes every year.
West Loop Community Organization
We cannot recommend StarEvents highly enough. They are incredibly professional and their connections to both local and national sponsors and vendors have helped grow our festival (and thus our organization) exponentially.
Andersonville Chamber of Commerce
There are many event producers in Chicago, but none is more experienced that StarEvents… which is why other producers may handle an event for two or three years before being terminated, but none have handled more festivals for more years than StarEvents.
