About Our Community Event Planning Services
Experienced in community festivals and celebrations big and small, the event coordinators at Make It Happen Events have the talent and know-how to make your community’s upcoming event one to remember.
Partner with us so we can help continue on your community’s tradition and events or create new traditions for generations to come. Whether it’s a community fair, centennial, or ceremony, we’ve seen it all, and we’d love to put our experience to good use in your community.
Let's Get StartedProgram Creation
Maybe its two or three days, or maybe it can be done in an hour. A reception could kick things off, or maybe a general session provides a shared experience to begin. Entertainment, speakers, panelists . . . think through the overall plan before filling in the details. We’ve done it before and know some tricks.
Venue Selection
The right location is the cornerstone for success and we know where to go. Some events belong in a hotel, some belong at your location or somewhere completely unexpected. Whether inside or outside, or several places, make your venue decision with our help.
Site Prep and Management
Once you have your location, what’s next? First, determine the elements, then how they relate to each other. From parking to staging, event flow to staffing, we guide you though all the decisions, even the ones you didn’t know you need to make.
Budget Management
It’s easy to get lost in the details, but plan your work and work your plan. We can help you create a strategy that fits your budget, then monitor expenditures and revenue to keep things on track.
Community Events We Do

Town Anniversaries
A town’s founding or anniversary is a wonderful thing to celebrate as it brings everyone in the community together and helps to ensure that the community will continue to grow and prosper. Let us celebrate your community with you!

Community Festivals & Fairs
Work with us to carry on your community’s tradition of annual fairs and festivals. We want to make sure these traditions carry on for years to come. We also love to make new traditions and create new festivals or fairs in our local communities.

Ethnic & Cultural Events
Make It Happen Events has worked on over 100 cultural events for International House Harrisburg, and has produced ethnic events ranging from Hispanic heritage festivals to Italian bocce tournaments. We really have seen it all.
