On The Scene Delivers Value for Large Pharma Client!

For a large pharmaceutical sales meeting, On The Scene was called upon to handle all ground transportation and two evening events for approximately 1,700 guests. Starting with a smooth airport arrival shuttle program, the evening's welcome event was held at the hotel's exhibition hall. "Space…Infinite Possibilities and Endless Boundaries" was the welcome reception's theme, as the stars, planets, and galaxies were the center of the universe. To create the feeling of infinite “space”, black fiber optic star curtains were positioned in various perimeter areas of the room. The center focal of the room was a vibrantly illuminated, 4-foot diameter sun incorporated into a large center buffet station. Moon Pies, Milky Way candy bars and a space-aged DJ added to the futuristic vibe for the evening.

The second night event was held off-site at one of Chicago’s endearing landmarks-Navy Pier. "Summertime at the Pier" was the theme, as the Grand Ballroom was brought to life with vibrant washes of color on the main floor and the stage backdrop. A breathtaking 32’ x 23’ LED wall on the main stage displayed high energy video effects along with company branding and logos. An 18 piece blues orchestra with dancers and performers go the crowd on their feet, while Jake & Elwood (aka The Blues Brothers), made a surprise appearance.

Outside, the East End Plaza of the pier was restored to its early 20th century heyday for a summer BBQ. Fresh solid colored linens in an array of colors filled the plaza, while popcorn and cotton candy machines enhanced the summer feel. Servers dressed in red and white striped shirts with black bow ties and ‘skimmer hats’, passed out lollipops and other treats from their hawker-boxes. A Dixieland jazz band entertained the crowd with ragtime favorites from the 20’s, 30’s and 40’s.

"Working with On The Scene these last few months has been an amazing journey. I can't tell you how much your unwavering support, enthusiasm, creativity and dedication to the project has meant to me. On The Scene no doubt is the best!"-Andria, Meeting Planning Manager
