City of Adelaide Lighting of the Christmas Tree 2024

On November 9th, the City of Adelaide’s annual Lighting of the Christmas Tree event lit up Victoria Square, marking the start of the festive season. Keito Events worked closely with the City of Adelaide’s event team to ensure smooth planning, from sourcing entertainment to confirming stage theming. 

The event was a great success, with a clear entertainment brief, a beautifully designed stage, and a seamless execution. Working with the CoA team for another year was a pleasure. Thank you to everyone who made this event special, and we can’t wait for next year! 🎉

From the moment you were involved with the planning of our function I knew it was going to be a success. On the night you and your staff made the event flow seamlessly and our 300 guests have since passed very favourable comments regarding the night and the launch of our new office and identity.

From our perspective we loved the activation, how it presented and stood out on the day. We were really happy with the bus positioning too. Keito were also so easy to work with, so it was a pleasure.

It’s been a big year for us party-wise and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Keito to others…hopefully we’ll be able to work with Keito again. We have some amazing memories that wouldn’t be nearly as amazing if it wasn’t for Keito and the team.

We engaged Keito Events to assist with the planning and delivery of the University’s inaugural ‘Showcase of Emerging Technology’, an event held on our North Terrace campus and designed to engage the university community through showcasing cutting edge and innovative technology. Being a relatively large event (40+ technology vendors, 1000 attendees), and a first for the University, working with an experienced team in Keito was invaluable, and a key factor in the success of the event. Beth and the team were friendly and professional, and their enthusiasm and attention to detail made it a great experience from start to finish.

Beth and the team at Keito Events were fantastic.  They really added an extra level of detail to our event that made it run smoothly and ensured success.  Nothing was too much hassle for them, they were flexible, dynamic, prompt and clear in their communication.  I would definitely use them again.

Just wanted to drop you a note to say how delighted I am to have Jade on board with us this week – she has been amazing and keeping everything running really smoothly and has the hotel working hard for us.


She is a super star and you should be really proud of how she is representing Keito.

I attended Juvare's User Conference in Brisbane last week, and I wanted to take a moment to share some feedback about your amazing team. Jade and Sophie were exceptional in every aspect - whether it was planning, communication, their positive attitude, or their attention to even the smallest details. 

They had everything covered, making the entire experience both enjoyable and seamless. 

It was a pleasure to be there, and I wanted to express my appreciation for the outstanding work they are doing. Keep up the great work, and I hope to see the Keito team again soon!

We enjoyed working with you and your team and Keito was a huge part of the success of Exercise Aurora.

I have never worked with a professional conference organiser before and if I’m honest I didn’t quite know what to expect.

However, watching Keito support Kim, Dan and my whole exercise team added proved that this was one of the best decisions we made during planning.

Your team were responsive, provided professional advice and took away some of the administrative burden that we have carried at previous national exercises.

Because of Keito, NEMA was able to focus on what we do best and Exercise Aurora was an incredible success as a result.
