Every Campus Event Type

From a 200-person block party to a 10,000-person homecoming concert — production scaled to your event, your venue, and your student activity budget.

Homecoming <span class='bg-gradient-to-r from-blue-400 to-cyan-400 bg-clip-text text-transparent'>Concert Production</span>

Full outdoor concert production for homecoming — outdoor stage, line array PA, lighting rig, IMAG, and artist technical rider fulfillment. Built for 2,000–10,000+ attendees on quads, fields, and parking lots.

Spring Concert & Fall Festival

CAB-programmed spring concerts, fall festivals, and end-of-semester blowouts. We review artist tech riders, source backline, and build festival-grade production that matches the headliner.

Welcome Week & Orientation Events

Rapid-deploy pop-up stages, PA systems, and lighting for move-in weekend and orientation programming. High throughput, fast strike, designed for back-to-back campus green space events.

Convocation & Academic Ceremonies

Fall and spring convocation production for arenas, auditoriums, and outdoor venues. LED video walls, confidence monitors, scripted production, and live streaming for institutional ceremonies.

Pep Rallies, Block Parties & Quad Events

Mid-scale outdoor production for spirit events, block parties, culture nights, and campus-wide celebrations. Scalable packages built for student activity fee budgets.

Biggest Event of the Year

Homecoming Concert Production

Homecoming is the highest-stakes event in the campus programming calendar. The concert is visible to current students, alumni, faculty, and the local community simultaneously — and the production quality reflects directly on the institution and on the student programming board that organized it.

We build homecoming concert production around the headliner's technical rider. That means reviewing the PA spec, monitor configuration, lighting plot, FOH position, backline requirements, and crew call before we finalize the production plan. Touring artists have real requirements, and fulfilling them correctly is the difference between a smooth show and a problem that starts at soundcheck.

For outdoor homecoming concerts — quads, athletic fields, parking lots — we bring a complete production footprint: portable stage (sized to artist and audience), line array PA system with sub stacks, monitoring system, lighting rig, generator power distribution, FOH position, and full crew. IMAG LED screens can be added for larger shows. We typically recommend booking 3–4 months out for fall homecoming dates.

Quinn XCII — Georgia Tech Homecoming

Homecoming books 3–4 months out. Spring concert books 4–6.

Spring Concerts, Welcome Week & Fall Festivals

End-of-Year Programming

Spring Concert & SpringFest Production

The spring concert — SpringFest, Spring Fling, End-of-Year Concert — is the CAB's signature programming event. It's when the largest portion of the student activity fee budget goes into a single production, and expectations from the student body are at their peak. April and May are our busiest production months for exactly this reason.

Spring concerts across the Southeast range from 1,500-person intimate quad shows to 8,000+ person festival-scale productions. The planning principle is consistent: start with the artist's tech rider, build outward from there, and ensure PA coverage matches the venue footprint.

For festival-format events with multiple acts, we handle the full infrastructure — main stage, side fills, full lighting rig, and modular stage configuration that accommodates changeovers. Book by December to secure peak-season dates.

High Throughput, Fast Deployment

Welcome Week & Fall Festival Production

Welcome week requires a different production model than a single major event. A quad welcome event Monday, a DJ setup and lighting rig for an outdoor dance night Wednesday, and a full outdoor stage for a move-in-weekend concert Saturday. Throughput is high and windows between events are tight.

Our pop-up packages are built for this cadence — pre-configured audio sized for outdoor amplification, quick-deploy staging that installs in hours, and compact footprints that work on sidewalks, courtyards, and campus green spaces. We map production requirements across the full week so inventory and crew are allocated efficiently.

Fall festivals — harvest fests, culture nights, block parties — follow the same model. We build the production environment, run the event, and clear it before campus needs the space back.

Institutional Complexity

We Know How Campuses Work

Campus events rarely have a single decision-maker. A homecoming concert involves the student activities office, the CAB, SGA, campus facilities, campus police, and risk management — each with their own approval timeline, priorities, and paperwork requirements. A convocation adds the provost's office, registrar, and university communications. Getting production planning right means navigating this stakeholder landscape without becoming the bottleneck.

We provide a single production contact for the institution and maintain parallel communication with each department that needs documentation. Technical specs, site plans, COI, load schedules — delivered in the formats that satisfy both the facilities team and the student activities advisor. We've worked within USG procurement policies, state university competitive bid requirements, and private college purchasing workflows.

For student planners managing their first major event — a CAB chair producing their first headliner concert, an SGA events director running homecoming weekend for the first time — we build production plans that are clear enough to present to your advisor and specific enough to satisfy the facilities office. You shouldn't need to be a technical expert to hire a production company.
