Production Futures is excited to announce a partnership with event transport and logistics specialists, KB Event. Since its inception in 1992, KB Event has been a leading provider of support for music events, exhibitions, concerts and international stadium tours, leading the way in sustainable transport solutions.
KB Event will make its first appearance at a Production Futures ON TOUR event at Production Park in Wakefield on Wednesday, November 27th, where it will showcase the custom-wrapped mega cube trailer used earlier in the year for the Bludfest festival at the Milton Keynes bowl. As part of its typically innovative approach to business, KB Event surprised the festival’s creator, Yungblud, with the Bludfest-liveried trailer, which was used not only for logistical support, but also to market and promote the event on the UK’s roads.
By buying into the community ethos of the Bludfest event, and demonstrating such an imaginative approach to engagement and marketing, KB Event demonstrated exactly why Production Futures is so delighted to welcome its latest partner, says CEO Hannah Eakins:
“As well as the incredible work KB Event carries out in transport and logistics, its innovative approach to to every aspect of its business marks it out as a great example of a forward-thinking organisation actively seeking to improve the visibility of the production industry in general. Its social media channels exemplify this determination to present the industry through a prism of fresh ideas.
“The young people who visit the Production Park ON TOUR event will get the chance to explore opportunities in this sector by speaking directly to company representatives, not to mention the chance to enter a competition to win Yungblud merchandise. We’re really delighted to add KB Event to our ever expanding group of committed partner organisations.”
KB Event are equally upbeat:
“KB Event is thrilled to partner with Production Futures to help promote this incredible opportunity for young people, eager to begin a career in production. Entering the industry can often feel daunting, with few clear entry points, but we aim to open doors and help make all roles in event production accessible for the next generation.”
The ON TOUR event at Production Park, Wakefield will enable young visitors to directly connect with representatives of Production Futures’ brand partners to explore employment opportunities in the production sectors. The day will comprise a packed schedule of events including panel discussions, advice, workshops, special guests, networking opportunities and more.
