… for skincare, we would turn an orange-juice seller’s handcart into a treatment bar.
Zest, orange-blossom water, little tasting glasses: the cart rolls up to the guests through the medina lanes.

Three ideas, one rule:
the venue tells the story of the product.
Ideas we would love to produce in Marrakech. Each one is feasible, on quote.
02
… for jewellery, we would hand out the incentive trophies on a Berber rug in Agafay.
A dinner seated on the floor, tea, sharing dishes and a game of carrom between two tagines. The teams mix, the trophies arrive with dessert.
03
… for fashion, we would hold the plenary in a palace courtyard, under hanging rugs.
Workshops in salons open onto the olive trees, lunch on the terrace. The setting changes the quality of attention and ideas travel better.
Medina, Palmeraie, Agafay, Atlantic:
the venues, one by one.
The venue does 90% of the work. Production does the rest: access, water, electricity, heating, security, plan B.
The venues of Marrakech and Morocco
The medina: riads and rooftops
- Private riads: riad-hotels you can book in full, or private riads rented like a house. From about ten to a few dozen guests depending on the riad; beyond that, we bring several neighbouring riads together or keep the riad for the evening.
- Rooftop terraces: a welcome dinner at sunset, lanterns, discreet musicians.
- Medina palaces: plenary and workshops in salons open onto a patio.
- Hammam: a moment of calm, or a launch: our skincare idea in a hammam.
The Palmeraie
- Estates: gardens, patios, salons open onto the olive trees, for a plenary or a lunch.
- Reception palaces: several hundred guests without losing the soul of the place.
- Activities: sidecar tours through the palm grove.
The Agafay desert
- About 40 km from central Marrakech, less than an hour by road.
- Berber tent camps set up for one evening: rugs, low tables, fires, hundreds of candles.
- Gnawa musicians, then a DJ around the fire.
- Production in the middle of nowhere: water, electricity, heating, comfort, security, shuttles. A plan B for wind and cool evenings: braziers and blankets.
Essaouira and beyond
- Two and a half hours by road from Marrakech: ocean, ramparts, a UNESCO-listed medina. Casablanca, where our team is based, Rabat, Tangier and Fez with local vendors we work with directly.
Best seasons: March to May and September to November. In summer we shift the programme to the evening; during Ramadan, service, alcohol and the rhythm of the city change and we build prayer times into the plan. About 3 hours of flight from Paris.
The method
A dedicated project manager, direct vendors,
no surprises on arrival.
01
The brief
We listen: ambition, guest count, dates, profile of the group, constraints (alcohol, diets, Ramadan, mobility). Your budget too, so we do not propose a palace when you need a riad.
02
The proposal
Two or three venues, a day-by-day programme, an itemised budget. The site visit is included in the quote: we only propose what we have seen.
03
Production
Our Moroccan vendors, paid a fair price. Group flights, room blocks, rooming list, a run of show to the minute, one WhatsApp group for all teams, everyone confirmed the day before.
04
The day and the debrief
Our team greets the group at the plane and stays until the last transfer, in the background but always at your side. Then a debrief with figures: attendance, satisfaction, impact, photos and videos.
Frequently asked questions
about our Marrakech event agency
A DMC (Destination Management Company) is an agency based at the destination that knows the venues, the providers and the permits. In Marrakech, it avoids producing "from Paris". Agence Dare-Dare, based between Paris and Casablanca, works with its providers directly and gives you a dedicated project lead, in French.
March to May and September to November: mild days and pleasant evenings, including in the Agafay desert. Summer is very hot; winter is mild by day but cool in the evening, with braziers and blankets for outdoor dinners.
Allow 3 to 6 months to secure venues and group flights (about 3 hours from Paris). A shorter lead time is possible, with fewer options. We reply within 24 hours of your brief.
Retreats and incentives, brand evenings, product launches, influencer events, press trips and weddings: a dinner in a privatised riad, a plenary in a medina palace or a Palmeraie estate, a signature evening in the Agafay desert.
Alcohol is only served in licensed venues: some riads do not serve it, we confirm it venue by venue and always plan an alcohol-free menu. Ramadan changes dates every year (around early February 2027, to be confirmed by the official announcement) and changes service and the rhythm of the city: we adapt dates, schedules and prayer times.
Yes: group tickets, airport welcome, transfers, hotels and riads, rooming list. Hotel contracts set a release date and an attrition clause: we check and negotiate them before you sign.
The budget depends on the length, the venue, the season and the number of guests. We do not publish standard prices: we reply within 24 hours with an itemised, line-by-line quote. Local providers are paid fairly, and we always propose at least one more responsible alternative.
From a dinner for 10 to an event for several thousand: no guest-count limit, and the same care whatever the size.
