Mountain Productions August 2023 Recap

August was a month to remember for the Mountain Productions crew. Over the last month, we took center stage at some of the hottest festivals and events throughout the country! Let’s take a closer look at the exciting journey we embarked on this August.

Musikfest

August started off strong with our return to Musikfest in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, where we relished the opportunity to once again provide the staging and rigging equipment for this 10-day music extravaganza. Our SP-1 main stage stood as a remarkable testament to its efficiency and innovation, featuring self-erecting towers and automated weather walls. Notably, the automated weather walls swiftly adapt to changing weather conditions, an important feature to have over the run of this 10-day music event. This cost-effective and adaptable staging solution has become an integral part of both Mountain Productions and Musikfest’s success, enhancing the festival’s reputation for delivering seamless, unforgettable musical experiences.

Veld Music Festival

3 nights, 20 artists, 1 MTN HD+ main stage – our 2023 Veld Music Festival by numbers! Having garnered a reputation as Toronto’s premier musical event, we were ecstatic to make our return to Veld for another year. As our premier staging system, the MTN HD+ features unmatched load-bearing capabilities with a capacity of 489,000 lbs along with a redesigned roof grid that can accommodate nearly any size show. With performances throughout the weekend from artists including Loud Luxury, Tiesto & Zedd, our HD+ main stage provided festivalgoers with a weekend to remember thanks to its 219,000 lbs performance area. A premier staging system for a premier musical festival sounds like the perfect match if you ask us!

Elements Music Festival

Earth and fire combined at this year’s Elements Music Festival, thanks to our SL-320 mobile stage and custom scaff structure. Nestled in the heart of nature, our crew enjoyed returning to Long Pod, PA once again this year to provide the setup for this 3-day immersive car camping festival. Our SL-320 mobile stage is a portable powerhouse that has redefined event production. This stage offers versatility, portability, safety, and an impressive stage area, making it the perfect stage for events large or small. As music festivals evolve to offer more than just music, the combination of our staging and the festival’s celebration of nature and music ensured an unforgettable experience for all who attended.
