Our history

Master Events Group (MEG) officially opened its doors in June 2016, but our legacy in event and safety staffing spans over 30 years. Our journey began in Miami-Dade County in the early 1990s, providing staffing services for iconic events such as The Lipton—now known as The Miami Open—and the Coconut Grove Arts Festival. These early experiences laid the foundation for a deep passion and commitment to excellence in event operations.
As demand grew, our founder, Karen Santini, expanded the business by launching a dedicated security company, enabling us to offer a broader range of services including private security, safety staffing, and emergency response planning and management. With rapid growth and increasing specialization, the decision was made to divide the companies, allowing MEG to focus exclusively on event staffing while our security division continued to evolve. This strategic move also marked the beginning of a family partnership, as the founder joined forces with her daughter, Amanda Granados, to co-manage operations and consult with clients nationwide.
Today, MEG is proud to have supported a wide array of high-profile events across the country. Our portfolio includes:
• Bob Marley Festival (9 Mile Festival)
• Coconut Grove Arts Festival
• South Beach Wine & Food Festival
• Scope Art Show
• Design Miami
