Pennsylvania Democrats Independence Dinner

Challenge

Pennsylvania State Senator Sharif Street, Chairman of the Pennsylvania Democratic Party, contracted ESM Productions to produce the Independence Dinner in Philadelphia, a major fundraiser for the Pennsylvania Democratic Party, less than two weeks before the midterm elections.

Solution

Our team developed and executed Senator Street’s vision and served as the overall executive producer, responsible for the speaking program, scenic design, menu curation, security and press interface and guest experience.

Outcome

ESM Productions successfully elevated the state party fundraising dinner to become the highest-grossing event of its history and served as a major platform for the nations’ top Democratic elected officials. The event included a rare, dual appearance with the president and vice president of the United States and other speakers such as the governor, state representatives, a congressperson, Chairman of the Democratic National Committee, and other elected officials.
