What changes at Coachella.
Desert heat drives the shift plan: shorter rotations, shade and water on every crew. Two weekends means planning for the same crew to come back fresh, not burned out.
Every Coachella crew gets the same brief, the same run of show and a team lead on site. Ambassadors check in with GPS at the start of every shift, log counts and photos as they go, and the recap is ready within hours, not weeks after the festival ends.
Who you're reaching at Coachella.
Coachella pulls a young, style-conscious, highly social crowd, plus a heavy layer of creators and media. People plan their outfits and their photos, so activations that give them something worth posting get the most traffic. The heat is the other audience you are planning for, all day long.
