Hi - I’m Elizabeth Knobel, Founder of
I created Urban Scene to bring a more strategic, commercially minded approach to events in Boston. The focus is simple. Connect the right people to the right spaces and create outcomes that work for both sides.
My background is in brand partnerships, field marketing, and event execution. I’ve spent years helping consumer brands show up in the right way, reach the right audience, and build experiences that perform, not just look good.
At the same time, I’ve been immersed in hospitality since I was sixteen. I understand what it takes to run a high-performing operation, maintain a standard under pressure, and deliver an experience that people actually remember.
Urban Scene is where those two perspectives come together. I partner directly with venues to shape their event strategy and bring in the right clients, and I work with individuals and companies to source spaces that genuinely fit while handling every step with care and precision.
Every engagement is managed personally by me. That is not an added feature. It is the foundation of how I work.

Approach
I treat every engagement like a brand problem worth solving. What does the space stand for? What does the client actually need? How do those two things come together in a way that feels right?
For Venues Most spaces have more event potential than they realize. My role is to identify it, position it, and connect it with the right clients.
I approach each venue with a strategic lens, understanding what makes it distinctive, who it’s built for, and how to present it so the right demand finds you. Then I go out and create that demand.
For Clients Finding the right venue is about more than availability or price. It’s about fit.
I start by understanding the event, the intent behind it, and what actually matters. From there, I source spaces that align and manage the process through booking.
Additional Support For engagements that call for more, I offer event development, vendor coordination, and on-site execution.
