Corporate events in Montreal that change the room

A corporate event planner runs a company event for the client. That covers objectives and budget, the venue, vendor contracts, entertainment, decor, catering, AV and production, the run of show and on-site management. The Idea Hunter is a corporate event planning and production company based in Toronto. We travel to Montreal for site visits and manage the event on-site. You deal with one team, and that team answers for every supplier.

The Idea Hunter has planned corporate events for more than 23 years. We deliver 220+ events a year across Canada and keep 97% of our clients. Our Idea Menu holds 750+ vetted acts and activations, the largest database of entertainment and activations in Canada. One team handles planning, production and on-site management, so one team is accountable for your event. You see a clear budget before you commit.

Cost depends on guest count, venue, date and how much production the event needs. As a guide:

• Entertainment and interactive experiences booked on their own start at $5,000.
• Decor programs start at $15,000.
• Full-service programs start at $35,000 and typically go up to $500,000+.

Travel for site visits and on-site management is shown as its own line, so you see the full cost before you commit.

For 300+ guests or complex production, plan for 4 to 6 months. Mid-size events need 2 to 3 months. Booking under 4 weeks out is possible, but you will have fewer venue and entertainment options. We reply to every inquiry within one business day. After a discovery call, you receive initial ideas and a ballpark budget within 3 to 5 business days.

Yes. We work from your signed venue contract. We read it first for in-house AV requirements, gratuity and outside vendor fees, then build the plan and budget around it. We take over communication with the venue and run the event on the day.

Yes. One team plans both, so the program, suppliers and standards stay the same in each city. You see a separate budget for each city before you commit.
