These figures come from 312 event marketing postings where the employer stated pay, covering 19 cities. The single best-evidenced figure is New York at mid-level, where 34 postings put the middle half between $110,000 and $151,250, with a median of $125,750.

Pay rises with seniority. Typical figures run entry-level around $55,000, mid-level around $116,000, senior around $169,000 and lead around $174,000. Moving from entry-level to lead is worth roughly 214% more.

Every range here is counted from real postings, never modelled. 17 of the 29 US-dollar ranges rest on fewer than 10 postings, so treat those as a hint rather than a benchmark; the sample column tells you which.
