Global Peace Picnic & Subelo

These were two of the larger pop up events from Summer 2021, with attendance exceeding 2,500 guests and featuring two stages with performances by artists recognized worldwide (Kinky, Molotov, Angel Melendez).

House City

House City was a series of pop up concerts in neighborhoods that contributed to the birth of the House Music genre in Chicago. We led a team of 10-30 people that oversaw all aspects of event production, from receiving and building SL100 stages through clearing the site at the end of the show.
