Project Managing Web & Social for Tulsa Mayfest 2025

Large festivals don’t fail online because of bad design — they fail because digital workstreams aren’t coordinated.

For Tulsa Mayfest 2025, I served as Project Manager for the festival’s website and social media workstreams, overseeing timelines, coordination, approvals, and delivery across multiple teams and stakeholders.

My role focused on making sure digital platforms supported the festival’s scale, complexity, and public-facing needs — without becoming bottlenecks.

The Digital Challenge

Tulsa Mayfest is a multi-day public festival with:

  • Thousands of attendees

  • Artists, musicians, vendors, sponsors, and partners

  • Constant updates tied to programming, registration, and logistics

  • High visibility and public expectation

The challenge wasn’t just creating content — it was keeping the website and social channels accurate, aligned, and responsive as plans evolved.

My Role

As Project Manager, I oversaw the digital ecosystem supporting Tulsa Mayfest 2025, acting as the connective tissue between leadership, marketing, design, and operations.

Rather than creating every asset myself, I ensured the right work happened in the right order — with clarity, accountability, and follow-through.

Scope of Work

Website Project Management

  • Managed the website workstream, including structure, updates, and timelines

  • Coordinated updates tied to:

    • Artist and program announcements

    • Vendor and participant information

    • Registration and e-commerce needs

    • Festival logistics and public information

  • Served as the liaison between operations, marketing, and web teams

  • Ensured content accuracy as plans and approvals shifted

Social Media Project Management

  • Project managed the social media team, aligning content with festival milestones

  • Coordinated timelines for announcements, campaigns, and promotions

  • Supported content planning around:

    • Artists and performers

    • Community partnerships

    • Special initiatives and festival moments

  • Helped maintain consistency between social messaging and website information

Cross-Team Coordination

  • Managed approvals across leadership and stakeholders

  • Reduced bottlenecks by clarifying ownership and timelines

  • Ensured digital teams had the information they needed to execute efficiently

  • Bridged operations and marketing so updates reflected real-time planning

The Approach

My approach to digital project management emphasized:

  • Clarity over control

  • Systems over scramble

  • Coordination over micromanagement

By treating the website and social channels as operational tools — not just marketing outputs — the digital presence stayed usable, current, and aligned with the on-the-ground festival experience.

The Outcome

Tulsa Mayfest 2025’s digital platforms functioned as reliable, public-facing resources throughout the planning and festival period.

Behind the scenes, clear project management supported:

  • Faster updates

  • Fewer last-minute scrambles

  • Better alignment between teams

  • Reduced friction during peak production moments

Digital didn’t create extra work — it supported the work already happening.

Why This Work Matters

Digital success at large events isn’t about flashy posts or clever layouts. It’s about coordination, accuracy, and timing.

This project reflects the kind of digital work I do best:

  • Managing complex web and social ecosystems

  • Supporting creative teams with structure

  • Keeping public-facing platforms aligned with real operations

  • Leading without needing to be the loudest voice in the room

Managing digital at scale requires more than content.
