Events — Concept, run-of-show and scheduling
The run-of-show is the minute-by-minute document the whole event runs on: who does what, when, and what happens if it slips. It is unglamorous and it is the single thing that separates an event that feels effortless from one that visibly improvises.

Everything below is part of the scope as standard. Anything outside it is quoted separately and named before it is started, so nothing arrives on an invoice that was not agreed first.
Common questions
What people ask
about this
For anything with speeches, a reveal or a service sequence, yes — and small events suffer more when timing slips, because there is nowhere to absorb it. For a straightforward drinks reception, a single-page timing sheet is enough, and that is what we would produce.
It will, and the run-of-show is what makes that manageable: it shows what can compress, what cannot, and who decides. Having one person holding that document and making the call is precisely why on-site management exists.
