Open Eyre Events has been an integral part of South Australia's regional events, establishing itself as a preferred working partner with Novatech and Nexstage since its inception in 2015. Luke, with a rich history in the industry dating back to 2005, brought his expertise to the forefront. Under Luke and Charmaine's leadership, Open Eyre Events offers professional event structures, design, and management services comparable to those in Adelaide. Based in Port Lincoln, they proudly extend their exceptional services to cater to the diverse needs of regional South Australia.

What sets Open Eyre Events apart is not just their impeccable work but the relationships they've cultivated within the SA event industry. Luke and Charmaine have earned a stellar reputation, and their commitment to excellence is evident in every project they undertake. Their strong connections across the SA event industry network contribute to the success and growth of their business.

One notable aspect is their commitment to accessibility. Open Eyre Events boasts an open warehouse, providing clients with unparalleled access to a wide range of event structures and equipment. This transparency not only showcases their dedication to their craft but also reflects the trust they have built with their clients over the years.

In conclusion, Open Eyre Events has not only become a cornerstone in regional event management but has set a new standard for professionalism, reliability, and creativity.

Council has engaged Open Eyre Events for a number of years to assist management of, and supply essential elements such as stages, marquees, tables, chairs, fencing, and more for the Ceduna Oysterfest. Open Eyre Events are an integral provider of event services for Council, their ability to plan, solve challenges that arise and offer alternative / innovative solutions, work within time schedules, demonstrated commitment, working alongside Council staff in unison, provide professional expertise and have that “can do” attitude are the reasons why Council continue to utilise Open Eyre Events, to ensure the event success. Working with Open Eyre Events is more of a partnership than just a contract.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Open Eyre Events for the EPLGA Conference, and I must say, their expertise in event management, signage, and staging truly exceeded my expectations. From the moment I stepped into the large conference room, I was greeted by an impeccably staged area, adorned with sponsor logos, reflecting a blend of professionalism and aesthetic appeal. The attention to detail was evident in every aspect, from the beautifully presented staging to the impressive entrance pieces that immediately gave the conference a 'wow' factor.

But the highlight for me was the custom-made bulletproof glass dance floor, ingeniously backlit with LED strip lights that artfully framed the sponsor logos. It wasn't just an addition to the event; it was a masterpiece that captured the essence of innovation and sophistication.

The team at Open Eyre Events didn't just provide a service; they delivered a complete, innovative solution in record time. Their ability to think outside the box and come up with creative ideas significantly contributed to making the Conference the best ever. Their commitment to excellence, coupled with their quick and efficient execution, truly sets them apart in the industry.

I wholeheartedly recommend Open Eyre Events to anyone seeking a dedicated, creative, and professional event management team. Their ability to transform a vision into reality is nothing short of remarkable.

The experience, guidance and willingness to share knowledge displayed by Charmaine, Luke and their team helped Lower Eyre to deliver its first major community event, Baylight in April 2023. The Open Eyre Events team were professional and happy to help in both planning and delivery of the event, assisting staff to work through any small issues that arose and find workable and timely solutions. Their support helped to ensure that the Council was able to deliver a quality event for the community and wider region.

I had the occasion to work with Charmaine, Luke and Open Eyre Events during my time as Chairman of the Variety Bash. I had the final night here in Port Lincoln, and my idea was to have a marquee on the foreshore so our out of town visitors got a taste of our beautiful towns front beach. Charmaine helped my thoughts come to reality. She took care of every detail for me, and worked really well with my team. Her knowledge of rules and regulations was immeasurable. She knows the right people for the right job. The marquee and set up inside was amazing. I can highly recommend Charmaine, Luke and their team at Open Eyre Events.

I have had the absolute pleasure of working with OEE for the past 2 years and it has been terrific. The positive can do attitude and going the extra mile are some of their many strengths. The team are full of energy and enthusiasm, great foresight and experience. On time, on budget and on point. We will continue our work on the EP with OEE and share their portfolio with confidence.
