Ryan Choura: Saving the Event Industry one Safe Gathering at a Time

What this episode covers

Ryan Choura is the Founder and CEO of Choura Events, an experience company building ideas to life through integrated event expertise across experiential concepts, custom fabrication, event production, and tenting & structures. After a 15-year career in venue management and marketing, Ryan acquired Anza Party rentals, which became the foundation of his passion for creating better events. He anticipated that events would evolve from party planning to powerful platforms that communicate ideas and connect communities. This forethought led to Ryan’s strategic expansion of the company from a rental-focused vendor to an experience company that now specializes in sporting and entertainment, activations, festivals, and environments. Under the guiding mantra, “Don’t be boring,” Ryan and his growing team work with world-class brands to execute some of the most iconic cultural moments including Coachella, Stagecoach, the Grand Prix of Long Beach, the ESPYs, the US Open Golf Championship, The Grammys, and San Diego Comic-Con. As a trusted voice in entrepreneurship, event production, and marketing, Ryan has shared his perspective with LA Business Journal, Angeleno, Special Events, and Modern Luxury in addition to the company being named a Top 100 Fastest Growing Private Companies. While Choura has grown since its genesis, Ryan continues to foster a people-focused culture and remains rooted in the mission to build experiences with purpose.
