How to use these pages
Start with fit, not geography.
The best page for you is the one that matches your venue, guest action, and campaign job. City matters, but scope matters more.
Cities
City guides for brands planning real campaigns in Canada and the USA.
Vancouver is HGM's first pilot-planning market. The other city pages are planning guides only. None of these pages promises a confirmed crew, employer partner, price, or booking.
What changes city to city
Venue reality, timing, rights, and review load.
Some cities move faster. Others need more review around language, hospitality context, weather, content rights, or staffing windows.
What does not change
Every campaign is commercial and review-led.
HGM is for real businesses with real venues. Pricing, availability, and approval still happen only after the brief is reviewed.
First pilot-planning market
Start with Vancouver, then verify every delivery detail.
