To celebrate the organization’s 40th anniversary, the event started with a VIP meet & greet cocktail reception, then the “in concert” performance by the Tonight Show’s famous host and concluded with a charity auction including a Harley-Davidson Motorcycle, autographed by comedian.

For a Jay Leno performance | Here is an example of how we enhanced a nonprofit celebrity event
Recently we produced a nonprofit event in Chicago for a charity looking to raise awareness for their organization. They selected a publicly advertised charity performance by Jay Leno. We helped in the selection, then contracted and turnkey produced the entire show.
We also coordinated several opportunities beyond just the performance, including:
- Meet & greet with VIP guests at a pre-performance cocktail reception with Jay Leno and photo opportunity. (a photo with Jay for all VIPs)
- Signing by Jay Leno of a Harley-Davidson motorcycle to be raffled off after the performance. (Jay picked the winner)
- Photo-op with Illinois Governor and presenting the Proclamation of Jay Leno Day in Illinois. (Jay’s birthday)
- Press event for Chicago media and NBC TV affiliate entertainment news taped interview for broadcast including Charity recognition.
- Participation in Charity Auction that included 2 tickets to the Tonight Show and private tour of Jay’s Garage of classic cars.
