Welcome to San Diego

Offering a great mix of high profile plazas, parks, commuter hubs and private venues, San Diego has something to offer most marketers. 

​Obtaining permits for an outdoor or indoor experiential activation or special event is often the most vexing task for an agency or brand.  A marketer will often know the cities and demographic they want to reach but may not know which locations are appropriate to reach their target audience.  That’s where Event Permit Experts come in to recommend the right locations in each market and most importantly knowing who to call to obtain these permits.  Each city and location has it’s own unique set of rules & regulations to navigate when obtaining permits.  Locations in each market can and do change.  Only a company like Event Permit Experts can stay on top of the rapidly evolving landscape in each city to make the right recommendations and maintain the relationships with these venues and municipalities to make your experiential campaign or special event a reality.
 
 Knowing how to obtain all necessary event permits, ancillary permits and community board approvals is where Event Permit Experts comes in.  With a wide breadth of knowledge obtained by consistently working with the decision makers at these locations we can help marketers navigate all the local ordinances and laws unique to each location to make your experiential special event a success.
