Preparing a festival agenda will set you on the right track and ensure that you don’t ever come near the word disappointment during the festival season.
The dates of the festivals are fixed. In fact, you can begin preparing a festival agenda for the movement one festival is over. Getting a head start on the agenda will give you an opportunity to collect details of the people you need to meet and also to set objectives for the meeting.
You do not need to send a festival agenda to the individual you are looking forward to meeting. It wouldn’t make any sense for the member to receive the agenda you prepared with the names of several people.
Therefore you need to send a personal request asking for time from the member for a meeting on Festival day. The request should be forwarded in a formal language compelling the member to give you the time requested.
Preparing a festival agenda will require some effort from you because this is a task that cannot be assigned to another individual. You need to prepare a list of the things you plan to do, all the people you intend to meet before you begin to write the agenda.
Points to consider while drafting Festival Agendas
- You must set schedules for the activities which can be expected in the program.
- Since you are preparing for an upcoming festival, you are advised to make notes on any ideas suggested by your members and also develop creative activities which can be enjoyed by people.
- You cannot approach a meeting without an objective, and therefore you need to make your team aware of your plans and the approach you intend to adopt during the festival.
- If you intend to make your festival event successful, you also need to have some dedicated members who can help you achieve your objective. Assign some of the difficult tasks to the dedicated members who may well be the most trusted in your group.
