Capabilities

Live

Our live business conceives, programs, promotes and operates a range of events and works with a wide lineup of the most influential acts in music, art and culture.  Our IP portfolio includes the legendary clubbing brand Shindig hybrid festival venue MainYard and Any.Day.Now.

We know how to create and grow events that are as culturally relevant as they are commercially desirable and have been involved in some of the most recognisable and successful events both the North East and UK has seen.

Our events, of which there has been over 1000 promoted and roughly a million tickets sold over the last two decades have ranged from small 200 capacity events through to large 10,000+ capacity Newcastle Arena and outdoor festival shows including the popular Spillers Wharf and Baltic Square events hosted on Newcastle and Gateshead’s respective quaysides.

From music festivals to site specific art projects we have worked with some of the countries biggest creative organizations in music, fashion, outdoor and visual arts.

Creative & Technical production

Front and centre; providing the bridge between the creative vision and the technical realisation.

Talent Programming

Redevelopment

All too often, vacant sites are undervalued and underused whilst waiting for re-generation. Without effective site management, landlords and developers are losing potential revenue on sites that could be transformed into new and desirable sites to accommodate a variety of events, often before potential redevelopment can begin.

While celebrating the heritage and impact a particular building may have we also look deep into its story. Our network reaches from live music to the retail, food and fashion industries and our team knows how to create a destination’s unique identity and maintain its role in a cultural conversation.

From creative design and tone of voice to signage, experiential activations, digital and social marketing, we know exactly how to put a space on the map.

We assist both the public and private sector navigate increasingly complex legal and regulatory obligations and manage ever-changing stakeholder relationships to ensure their event objectives remain in focus.
