FAQs

The cost of booking a Black History Month speaker depends on several factors including your event's location, duration and which specific speaker you'd like to hire. We'll negotiate a competitive price on your behalf and take care of all the logistics too.

Typically, the fee covers the speaker's keynote presentation and hosting responsibilities, but we'll create tailored packages to suit your needs and budget. Travel and accommodation for the speaker are usually charged separately, though we can arrange these for you.

Each Black History Month speaker has their own availability and schedule, so booking timelines will vary. For high-profile speakers, we'd recommend booking 9-12 months ahead of your event. That said, if your dates are flexible, arrangements can often be made at shorter notice. While we accommodate bookings at any stage, we'd suggest allowing at least three months to ensure everything runs smoothly.

Should you need to cancel or reschedule after booking your Black History Month speaker, please inform us as quickly as possible. Our team will liaise with you and your chosen speaker to find a suitable solution.

Booking a Black History Month speaker is made easy with Evolve. First, browse our website and choose a speaker.
