Allen Entertainment Management, headquartered in Chicago, Illinois, is an integrated company providing services in event production and publishing. Through A.E.M.’s productions and publications, our partners, sponsors and advertisers are able to effectively reach their respective targeted audience by a marketing means that extends beyond the realm of traditional print and television campaigns. By garnering the benefits of conventional avenues with direct marketing and promotions, our event productions provide clients the ability to further drive product loyalty.

A.E.M. produces events that have historically exceeded our clients’ and attendees’ expectations. We believe there is no substitute for experience and preparation, two of which are essential factors in providing events worthy of the celebration at hand. In addition to productions, A.E.M. publishes an independent magazine entitled, The Chicago LifeStyle. This publication attempts to bring awareness to Chicago’s X/Y Generation through hard-hitting, intellectually provocative and sometimes controversial editorials in hopes of aiding in the cultivation of a more altruistic society.

The annual New Year’s Eve Gala at Navy Pier has become Chicago’s most attended and televised event. The Gala takes place at Chicago’s most visited attraction with the city’s most listened to radio station. Attendees enjoy exceptional service and accommodations while celebrating the beginning of a new year with Chicago’s most influential crowd. There is nothing about this venue that feels congested or reminiscent of no-window hotel ballrooms—Navy Pier is on the water and its ballroom has floor to ceiling windows that provide an excellent view of the pier’s Midnight Firework Celebration.

Allen Entertainment Management thanks you for your interest in the A.E.M. 2008 New Year’s Eve Gala at Navy Pier. We hope that you are able to join our guests and us during our celebration. We wish you the best of luck in 2009.
