What an incredible show of heart from the Delta Air Lines family at the 2026 Delta Jet Drag ✈️❤️

With 180+ teams, 4,500+ participants, and $1.4 million raised for the American Cancer Society, this goes far beyond a fundraiser. It’s a statement about what people can do when they come together for something bigger than themselves.

Watching thousands of people pull a 255,000-pound Boeing 757 down a runway for cancer patients, survivors, and the researchers working on their behalf is something you don’t forget.

Cancer touches all of us, and events like this are a reminder of what is possible when a community decides to take action.
Well done, Delta.

It was exciting to be part of such a major milestone for the future of soccer in the U.S.

Congratulations to US Soccer, the Arthur M. Blank Family Foundation, and everyone who helped make this world-class facility a reality! ⚽️

A new era of the SweetWater 420 Fest took shape last weekend in Atlanta! 💥 Rival Entertainment had the privilege of helping bring it to life, collaborating closely with Tilray to reimagine the festival’s future. As the first event of this scale at Shirley Clarke Franklin Park, the weekend marked an exciting evolution for a long-standing Atlanta staple 👏

From a diverse lineup to bold branding and immersive activations across the site, the energy carried from start to finish, with Atlantans dancing well into the night.

We’re proud to help shape what’s next for this iconic brand and grateful to Tilray for their trust in bringing this vision to life. A huge thank you to our production partners and the entire Rival team for delivering at every level.
