Frequently Asked Questions

Mentalism is a branch of the performing arts in which a skilled performer creates the experience of mind-reading, psychological influence, and the prediction of choices or events. It is not supernatural — it is a sophisticated performance discipline combining psychology, suggestion, observation, and technique. Matteo Cammisa is a Member of The Magic Circle and FISM, trained in the craft of mentalism as a respected performance art form, performed at 500+ events across 30+ countries.

A magician typically uses physical props, sleight of hand, and visual illusion to create wonder. A mentalist focuses on the mind — appearing to read thoughts, predict decisions, and influence perception, often with minimal or no props. Matteo Cammisa works across both disciplines: he is a trained magician who also performs mentalism, giving clients the flexibility to book a blended experience or a performance weighted toward one style depending on the occasion.

Mentalism is a skilled performance art, not the paranormal. A mentalist does not possess supernatural abilities. The experience of having your thoughts apparently read is produced through a combination of psychological principles, performance technique, careful structuring of interactions, and years of practice. The effect is real — the wonder is genuine — but it is the product of craft, not mysticism. Matteo presents mentalism honestly as a performance art, never as supernatural power.

Mentalism draws on principles from psychology including suggestion, attentional misdirection, the construction of perceived choice, pattern recognition, and behavioural cues. A skilled mentalist understands how people make decisions, what they notice and what they ignore, and how context shapes experience. Matteo's performances are informed by deep study of these principles alongside the technical craft of the performing arts — creating experiences that feel genuinely inexplicable even to analytically minded audiences.

Close-up mentalism takes place at near distance — at a table, in a small group, or one-to-one — making the experience intensely personal and immediate. Stage mentalism is performed for a full room simultaneously, typically from a stage or central performance space, with selected volunteers joining the performer. Both formats are available: close-up is ideal for cocktail receptions and intimate dinners; stage mentalism works best as a formal set within a dinner or conference programme.

Mentalism is versatile and scales from intimate private dinners to large conference audiences of several hundred. It is especially effective at corporate events, luxury weddings, product launches, executive dinners, and gala events where the audience is intellectually engaged and appreciates a more sophisticated style of entertainment. Matteo has performed mentalism across 30+ countries at events ranging from private estate gatherings to international corporate conferences.

Guests can expect a polished, intelligent, and surprising performance in which their thoughts, choices, and perceptions appear to be known or influenced in advance. The experience is participatory — volunteers from the audience become part of the performance — and is designed to produce genuine disbelief rather than the 'how did they do that?' of conventional magic. The tone is engaging and often thought-provoking, without being confrontational or uncomfortable.

Yes. Mentalism lends itself naturally to customisation. Matteo can incorporate themes relevant to the event — a company's values, a couple's story, a product's key message — and frame the performance around information or choices that carry meaning for the specific audience. Custom mentalism requires advance planning and a briefing call, and is available for corporate clients, luxury weddings, and special occasions.

Mentalism can be calibrated for any audience size. Close-up and parlour-format mentalism works best for groups of 10–80 people. Stage mentalism can comfortably serve audiences of 50 to several hundred, with microphone and production support for larger rooms. Matteo advises on the optimal format during the enquiry stage, based on venue dimensions, audience size, and the overall event programme.

A mentalist provides a different register of experience — one that is more psychological, more personal, and often more intellectually resonant for adult audiences. Conventional magic creates visual wonder; mentalism creates the feeling that something deeply private — a thought, a choice, a memory — is accessible to another person. This produces a different kind of impact, particularly for corporate audiences or guests who consider themselves too sceptical to be surprised. Matteo's ability to perform both means he can advise on which format best serves each event.

A luxury magician operates at the intersection of performance craft and event production, serving venues and clients with five-star expectations. This means fully bespoke routines, elite credentials, discretion, and the professionalism to perform alongside Michelin-starred catering and high-profile guests. Matteo Cammisa is a Member of The Magic Circle and FISM, with 500+ events across 30+ countries — a record that reflects the expectations of the luxury market rather than the general entertainment industry.

Close-up magic — also called table magic or intimate magic — takes place within arm's reach of the audience, using objects as ordinary as cards, coins, or personal items belonging to the guest. Its power lies in proximity: there is nowhere to hide, no stage lighting, no distance. The impossible happens in the guest's own hands. This intimacy makes close-up magic disproportionately memorable, and it is the format Matteo most often deploys at cocktail receptions and dinner tables.

Strolling magic — also called walkabout magic — involves the magician moving freely through a venue, approaching small groups of guests to perform a brief, self-contained routine before moving on. It is ideal for cocktail hours, standing receptions, and networking events where guests are mobile and in natural conversation clusters. A strolling set ensures that every guest in the room has a personal encounter with the performance, not just those seated near a stage.

Yes. Matteo Cammisa performs in multiple languages, which is a significant advantage at international events where guests span nationalities. His routines are also designed with a universal visual logic — the effect of seeing something impossible in your own hands needs no translation. For multilingual events such as destination weddings or international corporate conferences, the combination of linguistic flexibility and visually self-evident magic ensures no guest is left as an observer.

Magic and product launches share a fundamental structure: both are about revelation, surprise, and the transformation of expectation. Matteo has developed bespoke routines for product launches in which the magic itself becomes the mechanism of the reveal — making the product appear, making it transform, or making a key message emerge in an unexpected way. This integration makes the entertainment inseparable from the brand moment rather than a pre-show warm-up.

Sleight of hand is the technical foundation of close-up magic — the precise, trained manipulation of objects to produce an effect that appears impossible. At a luxury event, where guests are often sophisticated, well-travelled, and seated at close proximity, the technical standard must be exceptionally high. Matteo's membership of The Magic Circle reflects peer-validated mastery of the craft. His performances are designed to be scrutinised and still defy explanation.

Magic is suitable for a wide range of events: luxury weddings, corporate gala dinners, product launches, VIP receptions, charity galas, celebrity events, and private celebrations. Matteo has performed at 500+ events in 30+ countries, including at luxury hotels, private estates, and international corporate venues. The format — close-up, strolling, stand-up, or stage — is adapted to the specific event type, guest profile, and venue.

Close-up and strolling magic is most powerful for small groups of 4–12 people gathered around the performer. Stand-up magic works well for groups of 20–100 seated in a defined space. Stage magic with production support can serve audiences of 100+. For large events, combining strolling magic during the reception with a stand-up set during dinner is a common and highly effective structure. Matteo advises on the right format at the enquiry stage.

A genuine wow moment is produced by the convergence of technical skill, timing, audience psychology, and material choice. The effect must be clean and unambiguous — the impossible should be impossible to dismiss. It should happen in conditions that eliminate obvious explanations: in the guest's own hands, under direct examination, without props or staging. Matteo designs performances around these principles, building to moments of genuine disbelief rather than theatrical spectacle alone.

The two most important international credentials are membership of The Magic Circle (UK, peer-assessed) and membership of FISM — the Fédération Internationale des Sociétés Magiques, the global governing body of magic. Matteo Cammisa holds both. Beyond credentials, look for a track record across comparable events: Matteo has 500+ events at luxury venues in 30+ countries, providing verifiable evidence of performance at the standard you require.

A destination wedding magician is a professional entertainer who travels internationally to perform at weddings held outside the couple's home country. Matteo Cammisa is based in Budapest and has performed at destination weddings in 30+ countries, including at iconic venues across Europe, the Middle East, Asia, and beyond. He manages all travel logistics independently, ensuring seamless integration with destination event teams regardless of venue or geography.

Matteo performs at destination weddings worldwide. Popular European destinations include Lake Como, the Amalfi Coast, Tuscany, the French Riviera, Monaco, Santorini, and Portugal. Outside Europe, he regularly performs in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, the Maldives, Sri Lanka, and further afield. His 30+ country track record reflects genuine international reach rather than regional availability. For any destination not listed, enquire directly — international travel is a standard part of his practice.

Matteo handles his own travel logistics — flights, accommodation, and on-the-ground coordination — in collaboration with the couple's wedding planner or event coordinator. For international bookings, travel costs are factored into the proposal. He is experienced with destination event protocols, including working with local vendors, navigating venue access requirements, and adapting to time-zone and schedule changes that are common in multi-day destination wedding weekends.

Destination weddings often bring together guests from multiple countries, speaking different languages. Matteo performs in multiple languages, enabling direct communication with guests across language groups. His close-up magic routines are also inherently cross-cultural — the reaction to seeing something impossible happen in your own hands is universal. This combination of linguistic flexibility and visually self-evident performance makes him especially well-suited to the international guest lists typical of luxury destination weddings.

Yes. Many luxury destination weddings span multiple days — a welcome dinner on Friday, the ceremony and reception on Saturday, a farewell brunch on Sunday. Matteo can structure performance across these events, ensuring each occasion has its own character while avoiding repetition for guests attending all three. Multi-day bookings are common for destination wedding weekends and are addressed in the planning conversation ahead of the event.

Magic and mentalism are among the most culturally portable forms of live entertainment, built on universal responses to wonder rather than culturally specific humour or references. Matteo has performed across 30+ countries spanning Europe, the Middle East, Asia, and the Americas, and is experienced adapting the tone, pacing, and content of his performance to the cultural context of the event and its guests. He can advise on any specific sensitivities as part of the pre-event planning process.

For destination weddings, booking 12–18 months ahead is strongly advisable. Popular venues in Lake Como, Amalfi, Monaco, and the Maldives have compressed high-season calendars, and securing entertainment early is standard practice among experienced destination wedding planners. Earlier booking also allows time for bespoke planning — including personalised routines, multi-day structure, and coordination with the wider event supplier team.

Yes. International travel is central to Matteo's practice, not an exception. Based in Budapest, he performs at events in 30+ countries. Destination weddings — whether in the Italian lakes, the Côte d'Azur, the Gulf, or Southeast Asia — are a core part of his calendar. All international logistics, including travel arrangements and coordination with local teams, are managed as standard. No destination is considered out of reach.

An internationally experienced performer brings consistency, professionalism, and a performance standard calibrated to luxury events regardless of geography. A local entertainer may lack experience with the expectations of a high-end destination wedding audience. Matteo's 500+ events in 30+ countries mean he understands the dynamics of international guest lists, multi-cultural celebrations, and the logistical demands of performing at remote or exclusive venues.

Begin with an enquiry at least 12 months before the event, providing the date, location, venue, guest count, and an outline of the multi-day programme if applicable. Matteo will propose a format — strolling close-up magic, stand-up mentalism, or a combination — suited to each part of the wedding programme. He coordinates directly with your wedding planner throughout the planning process to ensure the entertainment integrates seamlessly with the venue, catering, timeline, and overall guest experience.

A collaboration with Matteo Cammisa goes beyond a single performance. He works with hotel teams to design recurring magic and mentalism experiences tailored to the property's brand — from lobby activations and bar encounters to formal show formats. For hotels that want a content element, he also creates social-media-ready footage during his time on property, giving the partnership lasting marketing value.

A magician-in-residence programme positions Matteo Cammisa as a recurring cultural figure within a hotel — performing for guests across multiple days, seasons, or a defined residency period. It creates signature moments that guests associate exclusively with that property. Hotels interested in differentiating their guest experience with a high-end, recurring entertainment identity are invited to enquire about residency formats.

Beyond live performance, Matteo Cammisa produces branded magic content during hotel engagements — short-form videos, reels, and behind-the-scenes moments filmed on property. With over 620,000 Instagram followers, his content reaches an affluent, internationally mobile audience. Hotels receive both a world-class guest experience and organic, high-production social content that extends the property's visibility well beyond the event itself.

Live mentalism and close-up magic create spontaneous, memorable moments that guests cannot find on any screen or in any app. Matteo Cammisa's performances are designed to feel personal and astonishing without disrupting flow — whether at a cocktail hour, a fine-dining table, or a poolside activation. Guests leave with a story they tell long after checkout, directly supporting reviews, repeat visits, and word-of-mouth referrals.

Yes. Bar and lounge activations are one of the most effective formats for luxury properties. Matteo Cammisa moves between tables and guests, delivering close-up magic and mentalism in an intimate, conversational style that elevates the atmosphere without requiring a stage or AV setup. These activations pair naturally with signature cocktail launches, Friday-night programming, and member evenings.

Yes. Hotel weddings are a core part of his portfolio, built across 500+ events in over 30 countries. He works seamlessly within wedding timelines — entertaining guests during cocktail receptions, bridal dinners, or post-ceremony gatherings — while coordinating directly with hotel event teams to ensure the experience aligns with the couple's vision and the property's standards.

Absolutely. VIP loyalty events, cardholder evenings, and exclusive member experiences are well-suited to mentalism, which offers a sophisticated, conversation-starting format that feels exclusive and curated. Matteo Cammisa has performed for discerning VIP audiences across multiple continents, and his multilingual ability ensures guests from diverse backgrounds feel equally engaged.

Yes. Grand openings and property launches benefit from entertainment that is visually striking, socially shareable, and aligned with a luxury positioning. Matteo Cammisa's combination of live performance and content creation makes him a strong fit for these milestone events — delivering impact in the room while generating content that extends the launch moment across digital channels.

Hotel partnerships range from single-event bookings to multi-night residencies and ongoing seasonal collaborations. Initial conversations focus on the property's brand identity, target guest profile, and entertainment objectives. From there, Matteo Cammisa proposes a format — performance style, schedule, content deliverables — that fits the hotel's programming calendar and service standards.

Hotels can make an initial enquiry through his official contact channels, outlining the property name, event type, and approximate dates. His team responds to discuss format, availability, and logistics. Given high demand across multiple markets, early outreach is recommended, particularly for peak seasons, grand openings, and destination events requiring international travel arrangements.

Mentalism operates at a different register from stage magic. It creates intimate, psychologically compelling moments — reading thoughts, demonstrating impossible intuition, revealing personal details — that feel genuinely extraordinary to an audience that has seen everything. For celebrity events where guests are sophisticated and hard to impress, mentalism offers the element of real surprise that a conventional entertainer rarely delivers.

Discretion is a professional baseline, not a selling point. Matteo Cammisa and his team operate under non-disclosure agreements as standard practice for all celebrity and high-profile engagements. Guest lists, venue details, and event specifics remain entirely confidential. This is why no specific celebrity clients are named in any of his public materials — the trust of his clients is protected by design.

Yes. After-parties and premiere events are environments where he excels — high energy, socially fluid, with guests moving between groups. His close-up and roaming mentalism integrates naturally into these formats without requiring a formal performance space. He reads the room, adapts to the pace of the event, and creates moments that resonate even with a very experienced, high-profile crowd.

Bookings for celebrity events typically come through talent agencies, private concierge services, event production companies, or celebrity personal assistants. Matteo Cammisa works comfortably within these professional structures and is experienced in coordinating with multiple stakeholders — publicists, security teams, venue managers — while maintaining the confidentiality each layer of that process requires.

Trust with celebrity management and security is established through a clear, professional pre-event process: formal agreements, verified references, defined access protocols, and a track record of discretion across 500+ events in over 30 countries. His team communicates directly with whoever holds the point of contact — whether that is a PA, a production company, or a security lead — and adheres strictly to all venue and guest-protection requirements.

Experienced audiences — celebrities, executives, public figures — are typically more skeptical and harder to fool precisely because they have encountered entertainment at every level. Matteo Cammisa approaches these audiences with material that is genuinely difficult to rationalize: demonstrations of apparent mind-reading, seemingly impossible predictions, and psychological feats that resist explanation regardless of the audience's sophistication. Mentalism is a skill, not a trick.

Matteo Cammisa does not photograph, film, or share any content from private celebrity engagements without explicit, written consent. No social media posts, no behind-the-scenes footage, no guest identification. The performance exists solely for the people in the room. This policy is absolute and is one reason his services are trusted at the highest levels of the entertainment and business worlds.

Yes. Anonymous and uncredited engagements are accepted as standard. Some clients prefer that even the fact of an entertainment booking remains undisclosed. In these cases, all communications go through a designated intermediary, and no record of the engagement appears in public-facing materials. Matteo Cammisa's portfolio includes work that, by design, is never publicly attributed.

For celebrity events, Matteo Cammisa offers roaming close-up mentalism for cocktail hours and receptions, intimate group sessions for smaller VIP gatherings, and structured headline performances for seated audiences. Format selection depends on the event's flow, venue layout, and the host's preferences. His team works with event producers to identify the format that creates the greatest impact within the evening's programme.

Initial enquiries can be submitted via his official website contact form or routed through a talent agency or concierge service. The team responds promptly and manages all subsequent communication with full confidentiality. Given the sensitive nature of high-profile bookings, all preliminary discussions are treated as private, and no details are shared externally at any stage of the process.

Yes. Art Basel Miami and the surrounding fair week create a concentrated period of high-end private events, gallery openings, and collector gatherings — exactly the audience where mentalism lands with particular impact.

Matteo Cammisa is suited to Miami's leading luxury venues — boutique hotels, private clubs, rooftop terraces, waterfront estates, and exclusive members' spaces.

Yes. Miami weddings are a natural fit for his performance style — particularly for couples planning multi-cultural or destination weddings in the city. He integrates into wedding timelines at the cocktail hour, reception, or after-party, performing in the languages relevant to the guest list.

Yes. Miami's social calendar — winter season galas, charity auctions, foundation dinners, and fundraising events — is well within his performance territory. For benefit events, mentalism adds a talking-point entertainment element that does not compete with the cause itself, while providing a memorable guest experience that encourages longer attendance, greater engagement, and stronger room energy.

Yes. Dubai's role as a global hub for business events, summits, and international conferences makes it one of his priority markets. He performs for multinational corporate audiences — C-suite gatherings, client hospitality events, incentive trips, and product launches — in a format that complements the professional environment while creating a genuinely memorable shared experience for attendees.

Yes. International couples choosing Dubai for a destination wedding often bring guests from across Europe, the Middle East, Asia, and the Americas. Matteo Cammisa's multilingual performance capability and international event experience make him well-suited to these diverse guest lists. His team coordinates all logistics for travel and on-site performance with the wedding planner and venue team.

Matteo Cammisa performs in multiple languages — a significant advantage in Dubai, where event guests frequently represent a wide range of nationalities. His multilingual ability ensures that language is never a barrier to the experience, and he adapts naturally to the dominant languages of each audience, creating a performance that feels personal and accessible regardless of cultural background.

The combination of world-class mentalism and professional content creation is genuinely rare. Matteo Cammisa does not simply perform and leave — he can create branded, high-production magic content during the engagement, giving Dubai hotels, event organizers, and brands a lasting digital asset alongside the live experience. His Member of The Magic Circle and FISM credentials add a layer of professional verification that distinguishes him from the wider entertainment market.

Matteo Cammisa's close-up format requires no dedicated stage or technical infrastructure, making him adaptable to virtually any Dubai venue — hotel ballrooms, rooftop terraces, private yacht decks, desert safari camps, penthouse residences, and conference centres. His team can advise on optimal room layout and timing to maximize impact within the specific venue's flow and guest dynamic.

Submit an enquiry through his official website, including the event date, type, expected guest count, and venue location in Dubai. His team manages all international logistics, including travel, and will propose a performance format and structure suited to the event. Dubai is a priority service area, and his team is experienced in coordinating quickly for events in the region.

Yes. Matteo Cammisa travels to the Maldives for resort events, private celebrations, and wedding engagements — treating it as a priority service area within his international schedule. His close-up mentalism format is ideally suited to the intimate, high-touch environment of Maldivian overwater resorts, where extraordinary personal experiences are the baseline expectation for guests.

Yes. Matteo Cammisa is based in Budapest and performs internationally across 30+ countries. The Maldives is a destination he travels to for engagements, and his team is experienced in managing remote logistics for island resort events — coordinating travel, transfers, and on-property timing with resort event teams to ensure a seamless arrival and performance.

For resort weddings in the Maldives, Matteo Cammisa provides close-up mentalism tailored to small, intimate gatherings — the natural format for destination weddings in this setting. He performs during cocktail receptions on the beach or overwater deck, at sunset ceremonies, and at private dinner celebrations. With 500+ events across 30+ countries, he understands how to create genuine wonder in a setting where the environment itself is already extraordinary.

Yes. Intimate private performances for honeymoon couples, anniversary celebrations, and milestone moments are well within his offering. He can create a bespoke one-on-one or small-group mentalism experience — a private demonstration of mind-reading, a personalized reveal, or a curated intimate show — arranged in advance with the resort's guest-experience or butler team.

Yes. Maldivian resorts interested in offering recurring, signature entertainment as part of their guest-experience programming can discuss residency formats with Matteo Cammisa's team. A residency involves a defined period of performances and activations — poolside, beach, restaurant, or private villa — along with the option to produce branded content for the resort's digital channels during the stay.

Yes. Destination weddings in the Maldives frequently bring together guests from multiple countries and cultural backgrounds. His multilingual performance capability and international event experience make him an effective choice for these diverse celebrations. He works directly with the wedding planner and resort event coordinator to integrate seamlessly into the programme across whatever format — single night or multi-day celebration — the couple has planned.

The most effective formats for Maldives resorts are close-up roaming mentalism for small groups, intimate private sessions for VIP or honeymoon guests, and semi-structured informal performances during beachside or overwater dining experiences. Because the resort environment is inherently relaxed and small-scale, Matteo Cammisa's close-up approach — requiring no stage, no AV, no large crew — is an ideal match for the setting.

In the Maldives, events are typically small, private, and deeply personal. Matteo Cammisa's mentalism is naturally suited to this environment — he works best at close range, in direct conversation with a small group of people. He adapts the content and pacing to the intimacy of the setting, creating moments that feel specifically designed for that group rather than a generic show experience.

Matteo Cammisa performs in multiple languages, which is valuable in the Maldives where guest nationalities are diverse — European, Middle Eastern, East Asian, and American travellers all frequent the region's luxury resorts. His team confirms language requirements during the booking process and tailors the performance accordingly, ensuring the experience is fully accessible and personal for all guests present.

Submit an enquiry through his official website with the resort name, island or atoll, event type, preferred dates, and approximate guest count. His team handles all logistics for international travel and will work with the resort's event or concierge team to coordinate arrival, setup, and performance scheduling. Early enquiry is recommended for peak travel periods and multi-day destination weddings requiring extended planning.

Submit an enquiry through the official website with your event date, type, venue, and expected guest count. The team responds within 24 hours to discuss format, availability, and logistics. Whether you are a private client, corporate organiser, wedding planner, or hotel events team, the process is designed to be efficient and confidential from the first point of contact.

Every engagement is quoted individually, based on the event type, guest count, duration, and location. As a reference point, packages for events in Hungary start from 390,000 HUF for close-up magic, 450,000 HUF for a mentalism show, and 550,000 HUF for a full stage gala performance. International engagements include travel and are quoted on enquiry — submit your event details for a tailored proposal within 24 hours.

For peak-season events (December, summer weddings, Art Basel, New Year's Eve), booking 6–12 months ahead is strongly recommended. For off-peak dates, 2–4 months is usually sufficient. Destination weddings and multi-day events benefit from the longest lead times to allow for bespoke planning, travel coordination, and integration with the wider event supplier team.

To provide an accurate proposal, the team needs: event date, event type (wedding, corporate, private), venue name and location, expected guest count, and any specific requirements (e.g. multi-day, bespoke content, specific languages). The more detail provided upfront, the more tailored the initial proposal can be.

All enquiries receive a response within 24 hours. For time-sensitive bookings, the team prioritises rapid communication. The initial response will confirm availability, outline format options, and provide next steps for securing the date.

Yes. Bespoke customisation is available for corporate clients, luxury weddings, and special occasions. This can include incorporating brand messaging, personal stories, event themes, or specific reveal moments into the performance. Custom work requires advance planning and a briefing call, and is discussed during the proposal stage.

Both formats are available and can be combined within a single event. Close-up (strolling) magic is ideal for cocktail hours and receptions. Stage or stand-up mentalism works best as a formal set during dinner or a conference programme. For larger events, a combination of both — strolling during drinks, headline set during dinner — is the most common and effective structure.

Yes. International travel is central to his practice. Based in Budapest, he performs at events in 30+ countries across Europe, the Middle East, Asia, the Americas, and beyond. All travel logistics are managed by his team and factored into the proposal. No destination is considered out of reach.

The performance fee covers the live entertainment itself, all preparation and rehearsal, travel within the agreed territory, and coordination with the event team. For international bookings, travel and accommodation are factored into the proposal. Content creation, if requested, is discussed as a separate deliverable during the planning process.

There is no strict minimum or maximum. Close-up mentalism can be performed for as few as 2 people (private couples, VIP experiences) or scaled to events of several hundred with a stage format. The format is adapted to the audience size, venue, and event objectives. Matteo advises on the optimal structure during the enquiry stage.

After submitting an enquiry, the team responds within 24 hours with availability confirmation and format recommendations. If the date is available and the event is a good fit, a detailed proposal is provided. Once accepted, a booking agreement secures the date. From there, a planning call is arranged to discuss logistics, customisation, and event-day coordination.
