kickoff event
Opening night celebration
A kickoff event is a gathering that launches a project, campaign, or initiative—the formal beginning that brings participants together and sets things in motion.
Companies hold kickoff events for new products, political campaigns use them to energize supporters, and organizations convene them to align teams on goals: The fundraising kickoff event drew three hundred donors.
