Summer music festivals are a unique opportunity for brands to engage with their target audience in a fun and exciting way. However, staffing a festival activation can be a complex and challenging task, requiring a lot of preparation and expertise. From lodging and transportation to long days and outdoor conditions, there are many factors to consider when putting together a successful festival activation.

When staffing a festival activation, we take care of finding and securing suitable lodging for our staff. We make sure that the lodging is comfortable, safe, and conveniently located close to the festival grounds.

Preparing Our Team for a Long Day

Our staff members are well-trained and prepared to handle the long and tiring days that come with festival activations. We make sure that they have the necessary support, training, and resources to stay energized and focused throughout the day.

Protecting Our Staff from Sun and Heat

We prioritize the health and safety of our staff by providing them with the necessary protection from the sun and heat. We supply sunscreen, hats, and plenty of water to ensure that they are comfortable and safe in outdoor conditions.

Rest and Recharge

We understand the importance of rest and recharging for our staff during festival activations. That’s why we make sure that they have access to shade and rest areas throughout the festival grounds, and we provide them with extra breaks as needed.
