The internships provide the opportunity to attend the conference sessions and evening activities, assist committee members throughout the conference with registration and surveys, network with live entertainment executives and inquire about possible future job openings within the industry. Including the 2022 conference interns, a total of 96 internships have been awarded to deserving students entering the live entertainment industry.

To apply, please complete the application below and provide the following: Resume, Video Essay and two Letters of Recommendation.

Applications for the EVMC 2023 Internship have now closed. Thank you to everyone who applied. Recipients will be notified soon.

2023 EVMC Legacy of Leadership Fund

Due to the overwhelming support over the years with the Silent Auction & Raffle, EVMC is now able to offer a Scholarship for Industry Professionals, now called the EVMC Legacy of Leadership Fund.

This scholarship is different from the College Internship, as this opportunity is open to attendees who work in the industry and have never attended the conference or have attended in the past, but for financial reasons would not be able to attend. 

Applications are closed. Thank you to everyone who applied.

Up to three* Legacy of Leadership Fund Scholarships will be awarded.

  • Awarded fund will include all EVMC registration fees and hotel accommodations for three nights. Travel is the recipient’s responsibility.

All applicants must meet the following requirements:

  • Applicants must be a full-time employee in the event & arena marketing industry.
  • Applicants must be a first time attendee or returning attendee who would not be able to attend due to financial difficulty.
  • Applicants must have a valid passport and/or legal photo identification.

Applications will be judged by the EVMC Scholarship Committee on the following:

  • Eligibility
  • Letter of Recommendation from Supervisor
  • Personal Essay
  • Special consideration will be given to EVMC Planning Committee members or anyone that has significantly contributed to the conference in the past.

NOTE: In return for expenses paid, Scholarship recipients may be asked to assist EVMC Planning Committee members throughout the conference if the need arises.
