Job description

Creative Vision. Immersive Storytelling. Next-Level Live Entertainment.

We’re looking for a bold, imaginative Concert Experience Director to help reimagine what a live concert can be, transforming an entire venue into an immersive, visually compelling experience that extends far beyond the traditional stage. The ideal candidate combines visual storytelling, emerging technology, and unconventional creative thinking to develop unforgettable moments that engage audiences from the concourse to the ceiling. We’re more interested in fresh ideas, resourcefulness, and the hustle to make them happen than years of experience or an impressive résumé.

What We’re Looking For

• Visual Storytelling: Develop compelling creative concepts that bring music, messaging, and performance to life through innovative visuals and immersive environments.
• Beyond the Stage: Reimagine the entire venue as a creative canvas, incorporating walls, ceilings, floors, luxury boxes, concourses, and unexpected architectural spaces.
• Innovative Technology: Explore projection mapping, LED installations, lighting, sound, immersive art, interactive media, augmented reality, and emerging technologies.
• Unconventional Stage Design: Create visual experiences that break traditional stage boundaries, with imagery and installations that appear to extend into, above, and around the audience.
• Interactive Experiences: Conceptualize immersive installations, digital graffiti walls, projection-mapped environments, interactive art, and photo opportunities throughout the venue.
• Creative Inspiration: Think along the lines of Kanye West’s large-scale projection mapping, David Byrne’s inventive staging, and Gorillaz’s boundary-breaking visual productions, while bringing entirely original ideas to the table.
• Execution & Collaboration: Translate ambitious concepts into achievable productions, collaborating with professional lighting, video, sound, scenic, and technical teams to bring the vision to life.
• Resourcefulness: Find creative ways to maximize impact, work within budgets, and make extraordinary ideas technically and financially achievable.

Who You Are

A creative thinker, visual storyteller, problem-solver, and relentless doer. You don’t need decades of concert production experience, but you should understand the possibilities of live entertainment technology, have a strong visual imagination, and know how to turn a big idea into a workable plan.

Big ideas matter more than big résumés. We can hire the technical experts. We’re looking for the person who can dream up what they should build.
