ENTERTAINMENT BUYING

Amazing talent is the perfect way to complement and solidify your event’s theme, create excitement, and sell tickets; but talent buying can be a much more complicated process than people tend to think. Trixstar has spent years building relationships with all the top agencies in North America and combined with our industry knowledge we ensure you are getting the best entertainment for your event at the best price. In most cases, we can end up saving our clients 10-20% on artist fees alone!

Once booked, we work with the artists’ management on advancing the show details; travel arrangements, non-resident immigration paperwork, ground transportation, accommodation requirements, technical & hospitality requirements and more.

EVENT MARKETING

Now that a base of operations has been created for your event, it’s time to start letting people know about it. Planned, professional and creative marketing strategies drive people to purchase tickets. Our expertise ensures your marketing campaign is going to be proactive rather than reactive, and is always pointing towards the end goal that was developed in the strategy sessions.

We can handle all of your graphic design needs in-house (logos, posters, billboards, etc); radio/print/television ad buys, negotiations, scripts and scheduling; and smart, targeted social media advertising.

LOGISTICS

Every event is very different, but some commonalities can be taken into consideration when developing your overall site plan. Production (stage, sound, lights) and power requirements, physical space to put on your event and legal capacities, parking requirements, washroom facilities, fencing, signage, permits, tents, catering...and all the other little things in between! Organization and utilizing relationships at this stage of the game is key.

EVENT SAFETY

Event safety is being brought more and more to the forefront of event production. Many contributing factors, such as weather at an outdoor event, are uncontrollable and sometimes unpredictable even to the experts. That's why it's important to plan ahead and take necessary precautions to ensure your workers, subcontractors, volunteers and guests are all safe.

Event safety goes FAR beyond hiring a security company to work your event; you should have an extensive Emergency Response Plan that outlines all procedures, hierarchies and call lists, communication and evacuation plans, traffic and signage plans, ICS and EOC information, and much, much more.
