Who:
Haiyen Vang, On Decks Talent Agency, LLC
What:
To host an open decks event at Nocturnal Wonderland, 2023. Preferred Genres to be determined by Insomniac/Live Nation prior to event.
Where & When:
Camping grounds at Nocturnal Wonderland, 2023. Friday (5p-9p), Saturday (1p-6p) & Sunday (1p-6p). And whichever establishment sees fit.
How:
Our team will begin setup as soon as allowed by Insomniacs/Live Nation on Friday morning. Friday session will start promptly at 3p and end at 9p unless otherwise directed by Insomniac/Live Nation. The process will repeat on Saturday & Sunday. The order of performance will be determined on a first-come, first-served signup basis. Each performer has designated a 30-minute time slot with no exceptions. In addition to our open decks, we will host a Q&A discussion led by established industry-type guests on Saturday before the following open decks’ session. Our final open deck session will be Sunday, followed by our team breaking down the campsite afterward.
Why:
Our goal is to create a safe, respectful space for all up-and-coming performers who have a passion for the art but do not have the opportunity to be seen and heard. From the bedroom producers to the house party DJs, this event will allow those up-and-coming talents to shine for and show their artistic personalities. Through our event, we hope to inspire others and show our support for the future undiscovered talent.
Our Equipment:
Pair of Pioneer CDJ 3000, 4 Channel Pioneer Mixer, Full DJ Booth with light rig. 1 Stage monitor 2 Top Speakers and 2 Subs. 1 generators.
What We Are Requesting:
Two vehicle camping passes and a designated space for our event. Permission to bring a generator. And what else the establishment sees fit.
