Crafting the superior event experience

Activated Events is a premier outdoor events company that produces a wide range of events throughout California and Arizona including large scale country music festivals, EDM/POP festivals, alternative rock shows and the west coast’s biggest outdoor movie series. Activated Events specializes in finding unique outdoor venues and combining them with great artists for once in a lifetime music experiences. Our events cater to the tastemakers and trendsetters and are predominately a 21+ crowd.  We’ve found that with our amazing venues comes the opportunity for brands to be woven into the fabric of the event and find creative ways to make a lasting impression.
