At Casino Parties by Show Biz Productions, we believe that unforgettable entertainment starts with unforgettable people. That’s why I, Steve Phillips, had the privilege of representing Casino Parties by Show Biz Productions at the Florida Gulf Coast University (FGCU) Hospitality Internship Fair this week.
The FGCU Hospitality Internship Fair is a premier event that connects students with leaders in the hospitality, tourism, and event management industries. For us, it was the perfect opportunity to meet the next generation of hospitality professionals, share what makes our company unique, and show why casino-themed parties are one of the most exciting and in-demand event trends in Florida.
Bringing the Casino Experience to the Internship Fair
Our booth was hard to miss — draped in a custom green felt casino table layout, complete with cards, poker chips, and a Vegas-style vibe that drew students and faculty right in. I had the chance to personally talk with dozens of students who were curious about what it’s like to bring authentic casino-style entertainment to corporate events, fundraisers, private parties, and community celebrations.
With over 40 years of experience in the entertainment industry, Show Biz Productions has become a trusted name in casino night parties across Florida, Washington D.C., Maryland, and beyond. At FGCU, we were able to demonstrate not just our passion for creating thrilling events, but also our commitment to mentoring and providing opportunities for students who want to break into the exciting world of event production.
Why Hospitality Students Loved Our Booth
Students at FGCU were eager to learn about the behind-the-scenes work of casino event production — from managing professional dealers, setting up authentic casino tables, and coordinating large-scale corporate entertainment, to ensuring that every client has a first-class, memorable experience.
I emphasized to them that working with Show Biz Productions isn’t just about running an event — it’s about creating immersive experiences where every guest feels like they’ve stepped into a glamorous Las Vegas casino. For hospitality majors looking to build a career in event planning, production, or guest services, this hands-on, high-energy industry is a perfect fit.
Building the Future of Hospitality Entertainment
One of the highlights of the fair was seeing how enthusiastic the FGCU students were about the possibility of internships and future careers with Show Biz Productions. We are always on the lookout for creative, outgoing, and hardworking talent to join our team. Whether it’s learning how to manage client relations, helping with event logistics, or dealing hands-on in a casino night, our interns gain real-world experience that sets them apart in the competitive hospitality field.
A Huge Thanks to FGCU
🙌
I want to thank the FGCU School of Resort & Hospitality Management for hosting such a well-organized and inspiring internship fair. The energy in the room was electric, and it was clear that these students are ready to make a huge impact in the industry.
