According to the IDEA Pitchcode, a pitch fee is the standard for professional pitches. An events agency invests 40 to 80 hours in a full pitch. That's two working weeks of a senior event manager. A pitch fee partly compensates for that investment.
The usual fee is between €1,500 and €5,000 per agency, depending on the scale and complexity of the event. We offset this amount against the assignment if you choose the agency. Agencies that feel you value their effort deliver better pitches.
