Planning a legal event isn’t just about logistics. It’s about creating something memorable – something that brings people together, sparks ideas, and maybe even makes them smile. If you’re wondering how to plan a legal event that does all that (and more), this video is a must-watch.
In this conversation, Crafty Counsel’s Head of Community Toby Hornett interviews Griffen Hoyle, our Head of Content and the mind behind Crafty Fest. Together, they reveal what really goes into building an agenda that resonates with in-house legal teams- from choosing themes like “hats” and “compasses” to managing speaker changes at the last minute.
🎥 Watch the video to explore:
- How to plan a legal event with creativity, community insight, and structure
- Why themes matter- and how they help organise chaos into clarity
