Fast, fun and informative team building with lasting learning experiences to take away. We are known for some of the most daring team building projects with outstanding results.

If you want WOW factor allow us to bring together the perfect venue, staging, design, production, ticketing, entertainment and event management.

After a dynamic party with a difference? Our events are always memorable, unique and specifically tailored for our clients.

Need absolute attention to detail? We pride ourselves on water tight run sheets, seamless front of house presentations and awards ceremonies that aren’t boring!!!

Whether you require dancers, singers, actors, circus & stunt performers, bands, musical theatre acts or even animals, we can source them for you…and if it’s not in existence already, we can produce an original work (dependant upon client’s needs and budget).

We have access to some of the world’s best coaches in the Arts and can arrange training workshops for both the Performing Arts and corporate communities.

We have developed the world’s leading software system that efficiently coordinates audition tours for local musical theatre productions or multi-nation world audition tours.

Once we understand your event objectives we commence the creative brainstorming and present a number of options for consideration by you, until the perfect fit is found.

Booking the right venue is one of the first steps in setting the path to a great event. Connect will always look beyond the obvious to deliver a new experience.

Connect can offer an online ticketing system for all your invite, registration and entry ticket needs. All of which can even be designed to match the theme of your event too. If you would prefer a manual system, it’s no trouble to arrange that either!

Worried about what might be in the fine print? We have years of experience in negotiating and managing contracts and can manage this on your behalf. We are very familiar with current rates and fees (and more often than not, have access to rates not accessible to many others). This allows us to offer clients substantial budget savings.

Catering is very much a part of the overall theme so it is important to choose the right food for your event. Knowing how to work with caterers and the service of food (especially in a large event) is paramount to ensuring all guests enjoy the food and drink service. Connect likes to arrange tastings prior to their events.

All too often not enough detail is put into the sound, lights and vision, all of which are critical to a successful event. We not only understand production, we know how to get the best out of it and ‘bang for your buck’.

We believe in the power of the WOW! And our events are known for their WOW entrances and creating lasting first impressions.

It is important to understand your event’s power requirements and knowing what to do in case of limitations.

Venues don’t always have the entire infrastructure needed, so bringing in toilets, fences, flooring, kitchens, etc. is just another service we can offer when the location presents some challenges.

We have access to a large number of existing props, backdrops and table centrepieces or can arrange these to be custom made if required or preferred.

In addition to our core Event staff (that have a combined experience of almost 100 years in the business), all subcontracted staff on a Connect event will be met and hand selected where possible, for all aspects of the event. We demand the highest standard in delivery of services being hired and most importantly the staff must always look neat, have a great attitude and diligently deliver to ensure you get the best service available.

Connect will build into the event timetable, time to meet staff and thoroughly explain your event requirements and expectations.

Connect can provide the following staff:
• Meet & Greet (attractive or thematic)
• Security
• Public Relations
• Human Resources
• Photographers
• Videographers
• Production Managers
• Event Managers
• Stage Managers
• Food & Beverage Managers
• Event Assistants

We have access to a large number of costumes or can arrange for something to be custom made if needed.

Having worked in the entertainment industry from more than 20 years, Jaci and her team’s knowledge and contact with performers from all levels and disciplines is a huge advantage to our clients.

We have our own Talent Agency that supplies performers for Musical Theatre and Live Shows the world over. We have a strong and trusted relationship with most agencies, production houses, record labels and schools throughout Australia enabling us to have access to a huge breadth of talent.

Jaci, having been a professional performer, choreographer and teacher for many years (she even wrote Australia’s first Hip Hop syllabus) has the edge when it comes to knowing what works, what is available, what the next ‘big thing’ will be and importantly, how to get it!

• Singers
• Dancers
• Bands
• Speakers
• Specialty Acts
• Actors
• Circus or Stunt

Due to the large volume of travel and accommodation we book, we have a dedicated team of agents that work on the best routes, rooms, vehicles and costs for our travel needs. In addition, we can make available our ‘online facility’ whereby guests have private access to our booking site (which can be designed with a look and feel reflective of your company or event with the use of colours and logos on all the electronic stationary).

Connect is known for having the most detailed and effective run sheets in the business. As part of the service we will have every last second of your event (pre, during and post) documented so suppliers and staff are across every single detail, enabling a well-coordinated and seamless delivery of your event.
