About Leonie

I support brands, companies, and agencies in the conception, planning, and execution of events, brand activations, and hospitality formats – from the initial idea to successful implementation.

My focus is on experiential marketing and community-oriented event formats that make brands tangible and bring people together. This includes launch events, pop-ups, community events, brand activations, panel talks, and hospitality experiences in the lifestyle, sports, and gourmet sectors.

I manage projects end-to-end – from strategic event conception through project and budget management to the coordination of all partners, service providers, and trades. I place great importance on clear structure, efficient processes, and a high-quality guest experience.

It is particularly important to me that events are not only well-organized but also fit the brand, emotionally connect with people, and create long-term relationships.

Typical projects I support:

Brand Activations & Experiential Events
Community Events & Pop-ups
Launch Events & Panel Talks
Hospitality & Food-&-Beverage Formats
Event Project Management (End-to-End)

I work in a structured, solution-oriented manner and with a strong network of locations, partners, and service providers.

Experience

  • GIZEH Raucherbedarf
    Project Lead Campus Festival Tour 2026
    June 2026 - July 2026 (1 month)
    As the central project manager, I was responsible for the Campus Festival Tour 2026 for GIZEH Smoking Accessories, a brand activation across seven festivals throughout Germany. My role encompassed 360-degree project management: logistics planning, hotel bookings for the entire team, vehicle planning, goods delivery to festival sites, promoter briefings, shift schedules, and the coordination of a promoter team of over 15 people. I was personally on-site at key locations, acting as a point of contact and operationally involved in the setup. When a festival location was canceled at short notice, I organized a replacement event within 24 hours through my network. The activation was complemented by a Polaroid activation with customized prints, which created a strong social media moment.
