EVENT ARCHITECTS TAKES HOME GALA AWARD FOR RACHAEL’S BIG BLOCK PARTY
On Friday, January 15th at the Gala Awards ceremony in New Orleans, Event Architects was honored to receive a Gala Award in the category of BEST FAIR/FESTIVAL for Rachael’s Big Block Party.
The Gala Awards have been given by Special Events Magazine, the premier industry publication, since 1986. They recognize the finest work in special events worldwide at an annual Gala Awards ceremony during The Special Event Show.
Event Architects helped the producers from the Rachael Ray show execute Rachael's Big Block Party in Chicago's cozy Wrigleyville neighborhood for the season premiere lauch party and taping in August 2009. Over 1,000 Chicagoans were invited to celebrate the fourth season premiere of the Emmy award winning show and the show’s new home on Chicago’s own WGN network. Rachael’s Big Block Party highlighted Chicago and family fun for fans of all ages. The day’s event included delicious local food, celebrity chef cooking demos, kiddie karaoke with American Idols, a fitness challenge with The Biggest Losers and a heartfelt interview with Jenny McCarthy. The event also raised awareness around Rachael's Yum-o non-profit organization.
