About

Adelaide Event Operations Pty. Ltd. (AEO) is a local South Australian company established on 1st July, 2018.
We professionally organise and implement operational components for events in South Australia. AEO can either develop, quote, organise, event manage our own events or support events on behalf of others.
With over a decade of recent past experience providing operational management to Major Events in South Australia, including:
  • 2006 through to 2020 – Santos Tour Down Under Events
  • 2006, 2007, 2010, 2012, 2014, 2016, 2017 & 2018 Tasting Australia Festivals
  •  2015, 2016, 2017 & 2018 Adelaide Fashion Festivals
  • 2007 Great Australian Outback Cattle Drive
Our expertise is in running events located ‘outside a fixed venue’, where there is no existing event infrastructure in place.
For example, running events in public spaces, parks, streets, remote outback, etc.

Services

Our services provided can include:
  • Operational logistical support to Event Managers during the planning process
  • Produce detailed site plan documentation
  • Assemble detailed event build schedules
  • Produce risk management and emergency response plans
  • Provide event traffic management services and road closures
  • Onsite management during the build and bump out process
  • Provide capable and professional Event Staff
  • Implement outdoor corporate promotional activations
  • Application of Liquor licences and City Work Permits
  • Liaise with Emergency Services
  • Event Management Services
Our point of difference is that AEO is not a business that organise weddings, corporate dinners, corporate functions, expos, conventions, etc. as there are enough professional Event Manager providers in South Australia who are well versed in these types of events.

Fully insured, AEO will professionally plan, organise and manage successful events within South Australia. Each event organised by AEO will be within budget, achieving the required KPI’s to meet or exceed sponsor expectations through communication, documentation, thorough operational planning, risk assessment, financial planning and event delivery.
