Events That Work
At Functionality, events are our passion. Full stop.
Whether it’s a nationally renowned Festival or a corporate gathering, we know the importance of creating an event that tells your story. Nothing beats that feeling of pulling off an event with personality – we are chasing that every time, no matter the client.
Functionality Events bring a fresh, unique approach to the management of your events. We are not party planners or wedding co-ordinators. We are a strategic event management partner with an almost obsessive level of attention to detail, a fabulous ability to see the bigger picture and the perfect balance of professionalism, practicality and good times.
With experience ranging from world class sporting events, not-for-profit events and community driven events through to corporate events that have global brand recognition, we know that developing the documentation, planning and infrastructure is equally as important as choosing the catering, the venue and making it look spectacular.
Specialists in end-to-end planning for event operations, Functionality Events are all about gathering a network of like-minded creatives to bring you the services of a large event management company with the benefit of working local and supporting the little guy.
We are passionate about creating on-going relationships with stakeholders, suppliers, customers and the community. This is achieved through a dedicated approach to open and clear communication and a focus on project management that achieves goals and objectives specific to each event.
What Our Clients Have To Say...
I’ve used Functionality Events for a number of roles over the last 5 years, including event admin, planning, marketing and various launches and every time they exceed expectations. They really do live and breathe events and no job is too big or small! Reliable, affordable and professional – what more could a company want from an event manager?
Dee Smith, Chairperson, Australia’s Southwest
The subcommittee of Surfrider Foundation Margaret River Branch contracted Functionality to coordinate the National Surfrider Education Conference in November 2011. Lisa was an absolute pleasure to work with and consistently went well above and beyond what was being asked of her.
Her use and knowledge of conference booking and management systems meant that everything was taken care of with the minimum of fuss. Hiring Functionality meant that we could get on with our most important task – enjoying and contributing to the conference – knowing full well that Lisa had everything completely covered behind the scenes. Simply outstanding!
Gene Hardy, Surfrider Foundation Margaret River Branch
