This is now our 4th year of supporting Puffco and their wildly popular festival, Puffcon. This is a big one for us as we're spread out all over LA Center Studios with sound, lighting, LED display, power distro, staging and general vendor support. Such a fun one where there are 4000+ kids and zero booze. Just weed. Everyone is happy and kind and thrilled to be there including the 100 shifts of freelance labor we are able to provide to our peoples. No one fights about anything. Imagine that?!
We are so grateful to our client for bringing us along for the ride - high highs and no bad days.
The ShowPro team traveled to Atlanta to support full technical production for Sunbelt Rentals' annual corporate conference + celebration at Mercedes Benz Stadium. Nearly 7,000 guests took in the show on the 100'x35'ft center LED wall with supporting LED screens flanking each side. Complex engineering was required to bridle cables to support rigging suspended above the field. Our team oversaw audio, video, lighting, design, production management and more.
Sunbelt executives kicked off the corporate live event and Zac Brown Band closed down the party in style. ShowPro worked closely with Music Matters Productions, Germansky Communications, Impact XM, and hundreds of crew members across several vendor partners. A stellar show, flawlessly executed.
“The GLAAD Media Awards is a broadcast-quality show on a non-profit budget. It demands everyone's A-game, so there's no production partner I trust more than ShowPro for our AV needs.”
—Tricia Wallin, Vice President

We've always enjoyed our awards shows, especially their afterparties. Loads of happy people, a few disappointed people, but always plenty to eat and drink and watch. This year's Grammy Celebration was a nod to EDM - Ne-Yo headlined but our crew truly rocked it. Insane lighting design by Chris G with killer programming from Mat Stoval. Eric and co. gave us a very smooth 100db whenever it was needed, and Ryan and team had trippy video playing everywhere. Good stuff. Art Directors Guild Awards 2024 was equally impactful, this time with ShowPro doing the production for the show itself.
We love this town!
September 2023 triggered a bit of Covid PTSD in the events world as the writers and actors were on strike and it seemed like the strike was going to last forever. It didn't, but in the meantime the 2023 Emmys were postponed to January of 2024. Count us in! TV Academy boss Barb Held and our adored client Sequoia Productions brought us along to support with sound lighting and video. We're so grateful to kick off a new year that hopefully avoids the pandemics and disputes of the recent past. As Emmy winner Ed Sheeran puts it:
“Love's a Beautiful Game!”
We did this gig back in September, hoping the Actors strike would end any day. It didn't - but it finally has and we're all extremely excited about that. I certainly didn't want to post anything until it was all sorted out. One of our fave agency producers brought us in to do a guerilla show on Melrose in front of Paramount. No need to mention names, but when duty calls...
So happy this is resolved!
