Sep 2010 - Aug 2018
I began running my own events in 2010, which have graduated from being very small scale to now regularly attracting crowds of 1000+. I take on most of the important roles myself so have an extensive amount of experience doing all of the jobs related to event management & event production, all the way from initial contact with agents, finance & budgeting, grass-roots and guerilla promotion, stage management, ticket sales, online marketing, artist liaison and technical setup. I have looked after some fairly high profile artists during the years I have put on events and most recently have been running the ‘State of Emergency’ events in Bristol, which are 9/10k budget events that sell out the venue on a regular basis.
