Los Angeles, February 9, 2021 – Pacific Event Services announces they have volunteered to
donate their venue, staff, and expertise (labor, material, tenting, truss structures, audio, video,
lighting and staging) to the COVID-19 vaccination effort.
Pacific Event Services isn’t the only live and virtual event company doing so to help combat
COVID. A recent news article by Pollstar reports that a coalition of fellow event companies
(AEG Presents, Bandit Lites, Broadway League, International Alliance of Theatrical Stage
Employees (IATSE), International Association of Venue Managers (IAVM), Live Nation, the
National Association of Music Merchants (NAMM), the National Independent Talent
Organization (NITO), the National Independent Venue Association (NIVA), Pollstar parent
company Oak View Group (OVG), and We Make Events) have followed suit, even writing to
President Joe Biden in an effort to get their donations recognized.

Marc Weinstock, owner of P.E.S., says that he and his team want to help however they can
during this tough time of COVID. “This country and the industry have always done right by us
and been a source of great inspiration for us. I want to be a part of the team. I want to be part of
the solution. I realize that we can assist our community so that we can all be safe and healthy to
resume live and virtual events as soon as possible.”
Weinstock has been in the events world for nearly 15 years and has long standing relationships
with corporations, universities, and cities – client events have included: Tesla, GOOP, Loyola
Marymount University, The City of Santa Monica and many more. As live events were
completely cancelled, Weinstock pivoted to advancing his platforms toward virtual and hybrid
events. He was right on target, as the market is projected to be picking up exponentially with an
upswing of 33% and a $270 billion dollar profit predicted, according to Business Newswire.

Are live event companies going to help save humanity so we can all enjoy in person concerts
and conferences, movies, and all other events together again? Weinstock and his P.E.S. team
are counting on it. In the meantime, let’s get vaccinated and connect virtually so we can be
together in person as soon as possible.
A significant advantage of virtual events is the capability to remove limitations that come with
geographical locations. It doesn’t matter whether your attendees reside in Berlin or Kansas,
either way, the number can grow exponentially depending on your preparations. Contact
Marc@PacificEventServices.com for a consultation, live demo of their capabilities or to create
your dream virtual vision. In the meantime, stay safe – let’s remember what counts.
