Due to the limited number of Retreat attendees, no discounts will be offered for Engage!26 French Riviera.

Accommodations and airport transfers are not included in the registration fee; however, transportation between locations/excursions during the event is included. 

A limited number of rooms are offered for pre and post-stays at our preferential Engage! rate. Details for booking accommodations at these special rates will be shared with registered attendees.

We offer a 50% deposit at the time of registration. The remaining 50% is due 90 days before the event (January 13th, 2026) and will be automatically charged to the credit card on file. You can also pay in full at the time of registration.

Payment must be made via credit card except hotels, resorts, venues and tourism boards that require an invoice/payment by check or wire transfer.

Yes, we are offering purchase protection for our 2026 events through a 3rd party company, Purchase Protection LLC (not affiliated with Engage!). This optional coverage will reimburse your registration fee if you are unable to attend due to unforeseen circumstances such as death in the family, severe illness or injury, transportation failure, etc. It does not cover your purchase amount should you decide to take on a new client/opportunity that conflicts with the Engage! event you register for. Please read the Full Terms before purchasing.

This intimate retreat will be limited to 75 attendees and focused on strengthening meaningful connections between like-minded luxury event industry leaders, personal development, and professional growth with outside-the-industry experts, peer-led discussions and amazing experiences in one of the world’s most unique and extraordinary destinations.

While we do not share the attendee list before an event, Engage! attendees include event planners and designers, luxury resorts, hotels and venues, photographers and cinematographers, media, fashion and beauty, luxury travel and hospitality industry, entertainment, floral designers and many others—any category that touches the luxury wedding and events industry! 

In an effort to ensure the magic mix of industries at every Engage! event, each participant category has a limit. Once the limit is reached for an industry category, that category will go to a waitlist. If a spot becomes available within that category, we will offer it to those on the official waitlist. We reserve the right to verify registrant industry categories.

Yes, if you have a credit from a past Engage! event (within two years), you can apply it to this event as long as space is available. If you are interested in transferring, please email us as soon as possible at engage@engagingconcepts.com as spots are limited. 

You will be given an ‘event key’ to apply the credit when you register. Please note that we are unable to save spots for those with credits from past events, and there will be no refunds for credits not applied during registration.

Engage! registrations are non-refundable but transferable to another person for the same event with advance written notice and approval. Please review our Cancellations and Transfers policy in our Terms & Conditions before registering.

Due to limited capacities, the entire Engage!26 French Riviera program is for registered attendees only. You are, however, welcome to bring a guest to share your room, enjoy the Maybourne Riviera, and explore the Côte d’Azur while you’re participating in Engage!, but please note that guests of attendees will have limited access to services as they will be dedicated to our group. 

If you have additional questions we haven’t answered here, feel free to email us at engage@engagingconcepts.com.
