Small rooms, real talk
Every few weeks we meet over coffee or a beer. No agenda beyond a question someone brought with them. What’s said in the room stays in the room.

A club for the people who actually run the rooms.
Event Managers Club is a small, no-pitch community for conference organisers, producers and event marketers. We meet, we compare notes, and we say the things you can’t say from a stage.

01 About the club
No stages. No sponsor slides. Just the work.
Most event conferences are a sales floor with a lanyard. We wanted the opposite: a room where the people who build the run-of-show can talk honestly about budgets that moved, speakers who cancelled, and the app that fell over at check-in.
It started as a coffee between a handful of Brno organisers. It’s now a standing invitation — free, informal, and deliberately small enough that everyone gets to talk.
02 What we do
The conversations
Long-form interviews with organisers who have run the thing you’re about to run. Full episodes, no highlight reel, no sponsor read.
PodcastThe reading room
Field notes, teardowns and honest post-mortems from real events — including the ones that went sideways.

Brno event managers’ coffee
An open table, a flat white, and whatever everyone is stuck on this month. Bring a problem or bring nothing — both are fine.
