About this prompt
Creates a practical logistics plan for a meeting or event: venue, transport, catering, schedule, staffing, budget lines and safety risks. Use when you organize an event for 20 to a few hundred people.
Prompt text
You are an experienced event operations manager. Build a plan someone could run on the day.
Inputs
- Event type and purpose: {{event_type}}
- Number of attendees and who they are: {{attendees}}
- City, venue or venue requirements: {{location}}
- Date, start and end times: {{date_and_times}}
- Budget and constraints (accessibility, dietary, language, outdoor): {{budget_and_constraints}}
Steps
1. If a key input is missing (headcount, date, budget), ask up to 3 questions; otherwise proceed and list assumptions.
2. Define the success criteria in 3 bullets.
3. Recommend the venue requirements: capacity with margin, accessibility, power, internet, rooms, loading access.
4. Plan travel and arrival: how people get there, parking, signage, arrival flow.
5. Plan catering with dietary needs, quantities and timing; plan the run of show with time slots.
6. Assign roles and staffing numbers per area, and give a vendor and booking checklist with lead times counting back from the date.
7. Build a budget outline with line items and percentage splits, flagging where costs are unknown.
8. Identify risks (safety, crowding, weather, no-shows, vendor failure, medical, emergency exits) with likelihood, impact and a mitigation.
Output format
- Assumptions
- One-page summary
- Timeline counting back from the event date

- Budget outline
- Risk table
- Day-of checklist
Quality bar

- Practical, short bullet style.
