Today, we honor Juneteenth โ€” a day that marks freedom, resilience, and the ongoing journey toward justice and equality. ๐Ÿ–คโค๏ธ๐Ÿ’š

As venue professionals, we have the privilege of creating spaces where communities come together. On this day, we reflect on the importance of building those spaces for everyone โ€” inclusive, welcoming, and accessible to all.

Today, we're celebrating the connections that start with a shared event โ€” and last a lifetime.

Some of the greatest friendships aren't planned โ€” they happen in the moments between the action. In the lobby before a show. At a conference table in a session. Cheering side by side in the stands.

For decades, IAVM events have brought professionals together from across the industry โ€” and in doing so, have quietly been the backdrop to countless friendships that go far beyond the venue.

On this Best Friends Day, we want to hear from you: Who did you meet at VenueConnect, Venue Management School, or another IAVM event that became a true friend? Drop their name in the comments and let them know you're thinking of them. ๐Ÿ‘‡

The venues we manage are more than buildings โ€” they're gathering places for our communities, and we have a responsibility to protect the world those communities live in.

Whether it's switching to LED lighting, reducing single-use plastics, or pursuing green certifications, every action counts. Small changes across thousands of venues add up to something significant.

By sharing your venue's data, you help set the green standard for the entire industry. ๐Ÿ’š

The IAVM Board of Directors has approved a package of ten proposed amendments to the IAVM Bylaws. Find all details of this important update in your inbox.

These changes are intended to modernize language, align the bylaws with current practices, strengthen governance, and ensure the Association remains positioned for future growth.

As a member-driven organization, your participation matters. Voting members are encouraged to review the full Bylaws Explainer Document, which outlines each proposed amendment, the rationale behind it, and what it means for IAVM and the venue management profession.

Strong governance starts with an informed and engaged membership.
