Job description

Work Events That Actually Matter to People

Weddings. Conferences. Festivals. Corporate galas. Private celebrations. You'll be behind the scenes of Southeast Michigan's best events—the ones people talk about for years.

No two days are the same. One shift you're adding the final touches to a dream wedding. The next, you're setting up a killer promotional display at a sold-out concert. The variety keeps it interesting, and the work actually feels meaningful.

What You'll Do

Every event is different, but common responsibilities include:

  • Setup and breakdown - Displays, signage, event spaces
  • Guest services - Check-in, registration, answering questions
  • Crowd support - Wayfinding, information, keeping things flowing smoothly
  • Equipment handling - Moving, arranging, and managing event materials
  • Behind-the-scenes logistics - The stuff that makes events run seamlessly

Shift length: Typically 4-12 hours depending on the event

What You Need

  • Comfortable standing for extended periods and lifting up to 25 pounds
  • Able to provide directions and answer basic venue questions (restrooms, exits, bars, etc.)
  • Professional attitude and reliable showing up when you commit

Why This Beats Other Gig Work

More consistent income than app-based gigs with unpredictable demand
Better hourly pay without putting miles on your car
Networking opportunities - work alongside local employers who hire full-time
Interesting work with an amazing mix of people from all backgrounds
Real events - not just dropping off food or driving strangers around

You're not just earning—you're part of making someone's big day happen.
