LEO Events is seeking highly motivated and driven students for a part-time Internship opportunity during the summer of 2026. This internship runs from June 1 through July 31 and offers up to 24 hours per week at a competitive compensation of $20 per hour. Ideal candidates are junior or senior university students currently enrolled in, or recent graduates of, a four-year program focusing on hospitality management, communications, public relations, broadcast media, entertainment, film & video, graphic design, or related fields. The role promises hands-on experience in a fast-paced, exciting, and highly collaborative environment, where interns will gain exposure to various facets of event production and management. Interns are assigned dual roles tailored to their interests, competencies, and skill sets. Placements span multiple departments including production, media, event operations, graphic design, and meeting services. Each role is designed to build essential professional skills through active participation in different phases of event planning and execution.

The internship begins with a mandatory onboarding and orientation session held in Nashville in late May, fully sponsored by LEO Events to ensure interns are well-prepared and integrated into the team. Throughout the internship, candidates will develop capabilities such as project coordination, media production, creative content development, logistical support, graphic design, and client communications, depending on their assignment focus.
