Centricity Music turned 20, and they came to us with two words: elevated carnival. 400+ guests, 15 vendors, one night in Arrington, Tennessee.
We executive produced the whole thing — concept through load-out. Hired and managed every vendor, built the run of show, and handled the details so the label’s team could actually attend their own party.
The part we obsess over: the guest journey. We mapped every touchpoint from the moment someone stepped out of their car to the moment they walked back to it. What they see first. Where they slow down. What their kids do while they’re talking. A great event isn’t one big moment — it’s fifty small ones that add up.
Here’s what “elevated” and “carnival” look like in the same room: fire dancers and stilt walkers working the crowd while kids ran the inflatables and carnival games. Caricature artists sketching guests. Balloon installations you could pose for photos in front of. String lighting and colorful draping overhead, a coffee cart running late into the night, and a six-piece band closing it out. Everyone got a gift on the way out.
It takes a village…and what an amazing village of vendors we collaborated with! We hired and managed all 15 vendors: inflatables, carnival games, catering, furniture rental, strolling performers, balloon decor, AVL, draping and string lighting, coffee cart, photo booth, photography and videography, guest gifts, and the band. One point of contact for the client. Fifteen sets of contracts, invoices, load-in times, and so many moving parts.
Oh, and we designed and custom made 12 wooden signs for the F&B stations. :)
Centricity is an independent Christian label out of Franklin that’s been developing artists since 2005. Twenty years is worth throwing a party over.
This was a fully custom production. No template, no package — we started from a blank page and the client’s two words.
