Documentaries and Films Every Event Producer Should Watch

If you work in event production, whether you’re managing intimate gatherings or massive festivals, there’s always something to learn from watching how other events are executed, or how spectacularly they fail. We’ve curated a list of documentaries, films, and even a few fictional stories that are not only fun to watch but packed with lessons for event producers.

Watching events, both real and fictional, is more than just entertainment. It’s research, inspiration, and education. From chaos to perfection, there’s something here for every event producer, whether you’re designing immersive experiences, managing logistics, or simply looking for ideas to wow your audience.
