Most festivals and events function as non-profit organizations that are under the direction of a board of directors. Examples taken from “Special events: Inside and Out” by Robert Jackson and Steven Wood Schmader IFEA
Boise River Festival: It was recommended that the Boise Board of Directors should be comprised of citizens who have repeatedly demonstrated the highest levels of the following qualities: Acknowledged expertise in a business, professional, or community service capacity Exceptional organizational abilities and administrative talents Eagerness to participate in and support community endeavours Values compatible with those of the community Sincere desire to serve on the Board and contribute significant talent, time and effort to the event
Sample selection of professionals that would be appropriate for a Festival Board. #1 – The best administrator available, perhaps a Chief Operating Officer or President of a corporation, to serve as Board Chair #2 – A banker, financier, or any leader in an organization pivoting on money and finance #3 – A top-level public relations expert, publicist, advertising executive or marketing practitioner
#4 – A Certified Public Accountant or an executive – level corporate comptroller or accountant #5 – A leader in artistic or cultural pursuits, preferably in a professional capacity #6 – A tourism-promotion executive or anyone in a position of leadership in the travel, hospitality, or leisure-time industries
