Celebrating 115 Years of Inspiration, Joy, and Unity

After a few distant years of virtual settings and remote connections, the Washington National Cathedral Homecoming Weekend and Future Public Campaign Launch came at a perfect time to celebrate 115 years of being a source of inspiration, joy, and unity. For Linder Global Events, the task was unique – take an already beautiful backdrop of the cathedral and elevate it to create a truly unique and transformative experience, resulting in an unforgettable weekend while yielding results for a vital campaign to restore and preserve the campus.

An Up-Close-and-Personal Experience

What started as a consulting partnership, the Linder team partnered with the established National Cathedral team to navigate and support a magical weekend.  As the weekend included varying groups and needs, Linder supported and operated a range of events focused on their membership, private donors, and the dedication of a new building!  The National Cathedral’s Homecoming Weekend was an extraordinary celebration of togetherness as many of those in attendance hadn’t seen the cathedral in person after joining worship online for a few years. Additionally, private donors were welcomed for a special VIP Donor Dinner in the Nave Saturday night. From hugs with preachers, special musical performances, fellowship, grounds and behind-the-scenes tours, prayer, and a Cathedral Celebration on the west lawn to top it all off, there was no shortage of special moments while looking ahead to an impactful future.

Event Partnership Success

From creation to execution, Linder ensured that the Washington National Cathedral’s Homecoming Weekend and Future Public Campaign launch was a success with attention to detail to deliver a seamless and transformative experience for all in attendance.

Success in the Numbers
