Super Bowl LIX Host Committee Media Party

project
description

When 6,000 media pros rolled into town for the Big Game, the city threw a party they won’t forget — five stages, 30 legendary local restaurants, and the electric energy only NOLA can bring. From Big Freedia to beignets, it was a full-on celebration before the football frenzy began.

the
challenge

With the eyes of the media world on New Orleans, the challenge was twofold: create installations bold enough to break through the noise, and thoughtful enough to reflect the spirit of the city with care and authenticity.

We brought the beat of New Orleans to life — literally — with a glowing, suspended drum installation above the main concert stage that added rhythm, color, and a sense of wonder to the room. Nearby, guests stumbled upon a life-sized corner store façade, stocked with real Louisiana snacks, playful Mardi Gras touches, and all the charm of a neighborhood favorite.

Dan and his team at Downtown FabWorks were able to fully produce and execute a large-scale structure thoughtfully and in record time when my project's deadline was threatened by Hurricane Ida. I couldn't be more appreciative of Dan's professionalism and hard work during a very stressful and uncertain time. Dan and his team were a joy to work with!
