01What’s the difference between a gala dinner and an award ceremony?
The gala is the formal dinner; the award ceremony adds a structured programme of recognition. CH3 produces both, usually together, as one evening that runs to the minute.
02How large can a gala be?
From a 100-guest awards dinner to a 1,000-plus-guest gala in a landmark hall. Venue, staging and service scale together — the format holds at either end.
03Can you secure a landmark venue?
Yes — CH3 has produced galas in venues like Barcelona’s Poble Espanyol and holds relationships with formal, iconic spaces across all 12 hubs. You get a shortlist against your brief within 48 hours.
04Do you handle the awards run-of-show?
Yes — award structure, script, host, show-calling and stage production. The ceremony is the part most likely to overrun, so it’s rehearsed and called to the minute.
05Do you handle insurance and permits?
Yes — special insurance, permitting and all the admin that comes with a large formal event are handled as standard.
06How far in advance should we book a gala?
10–16 weeks. Landmark venues and formal production need lead time, and the date is usually fixed before anything else. CH3 can move faster through its network, but earlier secures the venue.
07What does a gala dinner cost per guest?
Roughly $57–138 across venue, catering, AV and branding, driven by venue tier and entertainment. You get a written, city-specific budget within 48 hours of your brief.
