General Questions

  • We support a range of live events, including city festivals, brand activations, community concert series, school and university events, sponsor-heavy public events, civic programming, touring-act support, and other live event environments that need more than a simple gear drop.

  • Our services include staging, audio, lighting, FOH engineering, monitor engineering, playback, RF coordination, livestream / IMAG, live recording, event power and distro planning, branding support, sponsorship signage, and broader production coordination.tion

  • Yes! We do have rate cards available upon request but they are only estimates. We recommend to contact us for a detailed quote.

  • Yes. Every event is different, so we build quotes around the specific needs of the event, venue, timeline, production scope, and support goals.

  • Yes. We are based in Emporia, Kansas and support events across Kansas and the surrounding region. Travel depends on the event, schedule, and scope, but we are open to regional work.

Booking and Planning

  • The earlier, the better, especially for dates during busy event seasons. Reaching out early gives more room for planning, scheduling, and building the right level of support around the event.

  • The most helpful starting details are the event date, location, estimated attendance, type of event, and the services you think you may need. If you do not know all of that yet, we can still help you start the conversation.

  • We review the event details, follow up with any needed questions, and shape a service plan that fits the event and its goals.

  • Yes. Not every client comes in with a fully defined scope. We are happy to help talk through the event and identify the right level of support.

Services and Logistics

  • We can do both. Some clients need a broader production partner, while others need specific support such as FOH engineering, monitor engineering, event power planning, or stage and audio support.

  • Yes, depending on the event and schedule. FOH and monitor engineering are services we actively provide and are well-suited for events that need strong technical support without a full production package.

  • Yes. Event power and distro planning is one of the specialty services we actively sell, especially for events that need stronger infrastructure planning and dependable onsite support.

  • We do not exclusively provide mobile power for most events but if generators are needed we can help you figure your events power needs and where to source the correct mobile power supply.

  • Yes. We can help support branding and sponsorship signage, especially for public-facing and sponsor-heavy events where visibility and presentation matter.

  • Yes. We support multi-day schedules, simultaneous zones, and event environments with multiple moving parts. These are exactly the kinds of situations where coordination and responsiveness matter most.

  • Yes. We support both indoor and outdoor events depending on the event type, venue, and production needs.

  • We can realistically support walk-around event capacities up to around 10,000 people, depending on the format, footprint, and scope. We are especially well-suited for mid-scale events that need a bigger-event feel and stronger support without the detachment of a much larger company.

Event Day Expectations

  • Rental houses usually provide equipment. Altissimo helps support the event as a whole. That includes planning, coordination, engineering, practical problem-solving, and event-day support that helps organizers keep the moving parts aligned.

  • We bring a high level of care, responsiveness, and hands-on support while still helping events achieve a bigger-feeling, more polished result. For the kinds of events we serve, clients often want strong production support without feeling like they are too small to matter.

  • Yes. Clear communication with organizers, artists, venues, sponsors, and other vendors is an important part of helping events run smoothly and feel well-supported.

  • Yes. We are a strong fit for events that involve public-facing presentation, sponsor visibility, civic coordination, or multiple stakeholders who all need the event to feel organized and professional.
