As the Delta variant of COVID-19 makes its rounds, Team SEQ is once again helping our clients [reassess their event plans](https://blog.sequence-events.com/planning-for-in-person-events-with-the-emergence-of-delta) in order to adjust to new health and safety guidelines, and the ever-changing landscape of guest experience. 

 

**We’re COVID-planning pros.**

The good news? We’ve been here before and are armed with [lessons learned](https://www.sequence-events.com/three-lessons-learned-in-virtual-that-well-be-taking-to-live-hybrid) and best practices for [COVID-safe events](https://blog.sequence-events.com/5-considerations-for-a-covid-safe-event). Over the last year-plus, Sequence has designed and produced great events for COVID-conscious in-person interactions, hybrid experiences, and fully-virtual-and-still-amazing opportunities for our clients.

 

**So, how is the Delta variant impacting in-person events as of today?**

Here is what’s happening right now with just a few of our clients hosting in-person events for the remainder of 2021.

- September: A financial tech company is moving forward with their in-person sponsorship of a large trade industry trade show. (Orlando)
- September: A major bank has transitioned their in-person conference to a fully virtual format. (New York City)
- October: A New York based nonprofit will hold their in-person Annual Gala in an outdoor, tented space in Brooklyn. (New York City)
- October: While a major medical institution is moving forward with plans for an in-person opening for a new hospital, the event has transitioned from a large-scale gathering to a smaller, more intimate (and COVID-safe) “watch party” with a virtual viewing option. (Philadelphia)
- October: A tech client’s sponsorship activation of a large conference  has been delayed due to the conference being postponed until June of 2022. (Las Vegas)
- December: Client and employee in-person events hosted by a financial services firm will go on as planned. (New York City and Boston)
- December: A nonprofit is moving forward with their hybrid Annual Gala. (New York City)

 

**We’re optimistic for 2022!**

We’re thrilled to see that, so far, all Sequence clients hosting in-person events in 2022 are currently moving ahead and planning with confidence. 

The bottom line for the remainder of this year is— don’t panic. [We’re here to help](https://sequence-events.com/30-minute-consultation/), and excited to continue designing unforgettable experiences that make you look great!
