Derrick Christian

The next adventure takes us to the Windy City of Chicago, where Dave & Paul hear what the United Center has been up to. Meet Derrick Christian, Senior Marketing Manager for the venue, home of the Chicago Bulls and Chicago Blackhawks. Derrick walks us through their amazing collaborations with the teams and local community, allowing for the state’s largest COVID-19 vaccination center as well as serving as a voting super site back in November. Hear about their support for community messages, like their “United Against Racism” boards, and their emphasis on innovation, especially when it comes to artist experiences and welcomes. Derrick also talks about his own motivational men’s accessories line, MR. SUITABLE, and his passion for spoken word poetry, where he hopes to personally inspire and impact everyone to move forward in style.Derrick Christian: LinkedInUnited Center: Facebook | Twitter | Instagram ––––––ADVENTURES IN VENUELANDFollow on Instagram, LinkedIn, Facebook, or X/TwitterLearn more about Event & Venue Marketing ConferenceMeet our team:Paul Hooper | Co-host, Booking, Branding & MarketingDave Redelberger | Co-host & Guest ResearchMegan Ebeck | Marketing, Design & Digital AdvertisingSamantha Marker | Marketing, Copywriting & PublicityCamille Faulkner | Audio Editing & MixingHave a suggestion for a guest or bonus episode?
