How much does organising a conference cost?

The cost of a conference varies widely based on scale, venue and ambition. A one-day conference for a hundred attendees quickly costs between 15,000 and 50,000 euros. The biggest cost items are venue hire and technical production. Together these often make up forty to fifty per cent of the budget. On top of that come catering, speaker fees, travel costs, communication and promotion. Finally, the costs for any gifts or materials for attendees.

Conferences with registration fees can cover part of the costs. Sponsorship is another option for larger events. At Live Impact we draw up a realistic budget together with you. We base it on your objective and audience. That way you know what you are getting into before you request the first quotes.
