Hector Rubio, Director of Resort Events & Programming

ONE NIGHT, IN THE MIDST of one of his team’s spectacular events at Harborside Lawn, Hector Rubio looked up to the stars. In that moment, he saw it: the Club’s next event.

As the director of resort events & programming, Rubio leads a team of event and logistics professionals who conceive, cultivate and curate memorable programming for the resort and Club members. The Fourth of July celebration with fireworks, barbecue and a sunset concert? That was Rubio. The Mardi Gras Signature Event with a blues trio and a second-line band? Also Rubio. In all, the resort events and programming team creates about 170 events a month, ranging from floral design classes to multiday fêtes. For Rubio—whose background includes Four Seasons locations in Las Vegas and Lana’i, Hawaii, among other luxury properties—he couldn’t imagine a better backdrop to throw a celebration than at The Boca Raton.

“I’m someone who is influenced by architecture, design trends and botanical, so when I look at a place that’s as storied as this, I feel surrounded by inspiration,” Rubio says. “It’s a playground of infinite possibilities on these 200 acres.”
