ABOUTLive events are complex. Good support should make them feel simpler.
Altissimo exists to help organizers create live events that feel polished, supported, and ready to succeed without unnecessary complication. Our role is to bring preparation, communication, adaptability, and real-world execution to the moving parts that make an event work.
WHY ALTISSIMO EXISTSBuilt around the realities of live events
Altissimo Event Services and Staging was built around a simple idea: live events need more than equipment alone. They need preparation, communication, adaptability, and a team that understands how the moving pieces come together in real time.
We created Altissimo to support organizers who want an event partner that is both professional and practical. A team that can help translate ideas into an event environment that works for performers, audiences, sponsors, stakeholders, and the crew behind the scenes.
Our perspective on what makes events work
A strong event experience is not only about what looks good from the outside. It is also about what feels organized, reliable, and well-supported behind the scenes.
Successful events are built on more than what the audience sees from a distance.
Production should support the event, not complicate it.
Professionalism matters, but so does approachability.
A strong event experience should feel intentional from the first conversation through the final load-out.
HOW WE WORKA working style built on clarity and adaptability
Our approach starts with understanding what the event actually needs, then building a plan that supports those goals without unnecessary complication. We believe in clear communication, practical recommendations, and dependable execution from planning through show day.
That means being detail-oriented when it counts, flexible when conditions shift, and steady under pressure when live-event variables inevitably change. We aim to make the production side of an event feel more organized, more manageable, and more supported for everyone involved.

Cory AndersonCo Owner/Production Coordinator
Cory Anderson grew up on a farm and ranch near Americus, Kansas, where he developed the work ethic and practical mindset that still shape his approach today. He began performing onstage at 8 years old and later traveled across the United States as a singer-songwriter, gaining a firsthand understanding of what makes a live experience truly connect. Over the past 15 years, Cory has built a professional career in production across rock, metal, pop, indie folk, and country, with experience as an engineer, systems tech, house engineer, and festival production lead. As co-owner of Altissimo Event Services in Emporia, he oversees production coordination, engineering, lighting, and staffing with a clear focus: delivering events that are thoughtful, seamless, and memorable for every audience.

Altissimo is built by people who care deeply about live events, audience experience, and the details that help an event come together successfully. Our background in live production shapes the way we approach problem-solving, communication, and execution on event day.
We understand that no two events are exactly alike, which is why we aim to bring both consistency and adaptability to every project we support. The goal is not just to provide equipment or technical support. It is to help create an event environment that feels steady, professional, and ready to perform when it matters.
