01
Programme & scheduling
Session grid, room allocation, turnaround times and clash management.
The short version
Arts & Literature Festivals
- Single-venue and multi-venue festivals
- Dozens of parallel sessions
- Bilingual moderation and signage
- Contributor care as a planned workstream
Arts and literature festivals carry a particular pressure: many small sessions, many contributors, and audiences who move between them all day. The programme is the product, and it only works if sessions start on time, rooms turn around cleanly and nobody has to ask where anything is.
What’s included
Everything in one scope.
02
Author & artist coordination
Invitations, travel, accommodation, briefing packs and on-site liaison.
03
Venue & session management
Room setups, AV, moderators, timing and session-by-session stewarding.
04
Exhibitions & installations
Gallery hangs, installation builds, labelling, lighting and invigilation.
05
Audience operations
Registration, session capacity control, signage, wayfinding and accessibility.
06
Bookshop, retail & signings
Retail setup, stock coordination, signing queues and author scheduling.
Do you work with cultural authorities and sponsors?
Yes. Approvals, reporting and sponsor deliverables are planned into the programme rather than handled at the end.
Can you manage bilingual programming?
Yes. Arabic and English sessions, moderators, signage and interpretation where required.
How do you handle sessions that overrun?
With a stewarding plan and moderators briefed on hard stops. A festival that runs late in the morning is late all day.
