CORPORATE AV & EVENT PRODUCTION FOR EVENTS AT MERCEDES-BENZ STADIUM

Planning an event at Mercedes-Benz Stadium? Atlanta Music Pros can help coordinate audio, video, lighting, entertainment and production requirements, subject to the venue’s policies and vendor requirements. For corporate events in the stadium’s clubs, lounges, suites and field-level spaces, we can provide or coordinate audio and wireless microphones, presentation display, camera coverage and recording, streaming, lighting and corporate entertainment — working within the building’s own operational and vendor requirements.

Stadiums run corporate events in the spaces built for hospitality: clubs, lounges, suites and field-level areas. They are genuinely impressive rooms, and they behave nothing like hotel ballrooms. Most are long, glass-heavy, hard-surfaced and shaped around sightlines to a field rather than to a stage.

The other difference is operational. A stadium is a secured building with its own event calendar, access procedures and vendor requirements, and an outside production company works inside that framework rather than around it. Planning starts with what the building allows and when you can get in.

Services

AV SERVICES FOR EVENTS AT MERCEDES-BENZ STADIUM

Stadium hospitality spaces are usually wide and reflective, so audio design is about coverage and intelligibility across an awkward shape rather than about power.

AUDIO

Speech first.

  • PA systems sized to the room and its acoustics
  • Wireless microphones — handheld, lavalier, headset, podium and panel
  • Frequency coordination for the building
  • Live mixing rather than a set-and-leave level
  • Program audio feeds for recording, streaming and press

VIDEO

Seeing the stage and keeping the content.

  • IMAG camera magnification where room depth needs it
  • Multi-camera coverage and live switching
  • Recording of sessions, keynotes and panels
  • Live streaming to public or private destinations

DISPLAY

Content people can read.

  • Projection and screens sized against the room
  • Large-format displays for smaller and brighter spaces

The half most AV companies do not provide.

Event Types

TYPES OF EVENTS WE CAN SUPPORT

Corporate use of a stadium is mostly hospitality and brand-led rather than session-led. These are the shapes we can support.

CLIENT HOSPITALITY

Reception audio, background music and a working microphone for remarks, at a level that supports conversation in a reflective room.

CORPORATE RECEPTIONS

Music, lighting and atmosphere in a club or lounge, with a DJ or live band where the event calls for it.

BRAND ACTIVATIONS

Branded content on displays, lighting in brand color and capture for later use. See product launch production.

PRESENTATIONS & ANNOUNCEMENTS

Speech-first audio, presentation display and recording for announcements made in a hospitality space. See corporate meeting AV.

PRESS EVENTS

Clean quotable audio and a press feed so anyone recording gets something usable rather than room noise.

AWARDS & RECOGNITION

Program audio, award playback and lighting cues in a lounge or club setting. See awards gala production.

Planning

PLANNING AV AT MERCEDES-BENZ STADIUM

Four things shape production in a stadium, and three of them are operational rather than technical.

The rooms are acoustically difficult

Stadium clubs and lounges are typically long, wide and finished in glass, concrete, metal and polished surfaces, with the seating and sightlines oriented toward a field rather than toward a stage. Speech in those rooms needs distributed coverage aimed at where people actually are, because a single stack at one end will be too loud nearby and unintelligible at the far end.

Access is controlled and scheduled

Load-in routes, security screening, credentialing and parking are managed by the building. Equipment does not simply arrive at a door. This is entirely workable, but it has to be arranged in advance and it affects how many hours the load-in takes.

The building has its own calendar

Stadiums schedule corporate events around their primary event calendar, and a game, concert or conversion day next to your date affects access, available crew time and sometimes the spaces themselves. Asking what else is happening that week is a useful question.

Vendor requirements are the venue’s to set

Large venues commonly maintain requirements about which companies may work in the building, what insurance is needed, and which services must come from designated providers. We make no claim to any status at this venue. Venue policies, outside-vendor requirements, power, internet, loading access and production restrictions should be confirmed with the venue during pre-production. Many hotels, arenas and convention facilities maintain in-house AV departments, exclusive service providers, union labor rules, rigging approvals and outside-vendor fees, and those terms decide what any outside company can do in the room.

Example

EXAMPLE PRODUCTION CONFIGURATION

Example configuration — illustrative, not a past project

A 200-guest client reception with remarks in a stadium club space

An illustrative configuration for a standing reception with short remarks, in a long glass-fronted club. This is a hypothetical illustration of how a production of this shape fits together. It is not a past project, not a quote and not a price.

Audio
Distributed compact speakers covering the length of the room rather than one position at the front
Microphones
Wireless handheld for remarks with a lavalier alternative, plus a backup channel
Background music
Reception music at a level set for conversation, raised after the remarks
Display
Large-format displays for branded or presentation content, chosen over projection for a bright glass-walled space
Lighting
Uplighting in brand color to shape a room that is otherwise lit for hospitality, plus enough light on the speaking position
Capture
Single-camera record of the remarks with a direct audio feed rather than camera microphones
Logistics
Load-in route, credentialing and dock or service access arranged with the venue in advance
Crew
Technician present through setup, the remarks and strike

Worth knowing

In a glass-walled club, displays usually beat projection. Ambient light from the concourse and the field side defeats a projected image at almost any brightness.

Please Note

OUR RELATIONSHIP TO THIS VENUE

Atlanta Music Pros is not affiliated with Mercedes-Benz Stadium

This page exists because planners search for AV help by venue. It does not indicate any affiliation, endorsement, partnership, preferred-vendor status or approved-vendor status, and we make no claim to any. Mercedes-Benz Stadium is named here only to describe the kind of production planning an event in that building involves.

Whether an outside production company can work in a given space, and on what terms, is decided by the venue and by your own contract with it. We will work within those terms, and we will tell you plainly when something you have asked for is not ours to promise.

Questions We Actually Get

CORPORATE AV FAQS

Can you provide AV for a corporate event at Mercedes-Benz Stadium?

We can provide or coordinate audio, microphones, presentation display, camera coverage, recording, streaming, lighting and entertainment for corporate events in the stadium’s hospitality spaces, subject to the venue’s vendor and operational requirements. Large venues set their own rules about which companies may work in the building and which services must come from designated providers, so that is the first thing to confirm.

Are stadium event spaces hard to do audio in?

Harder than a ballroom, yes. Clubs and lounges tend to be long, wide and finished in glass, concrete and metal, with seating oriented toward a field rather than a stage. A single speaker position at one end is too loud nearby and unintelligible at the far end. The fix is distributed coverage placed near where guests actually stand, which is a design decision made before load-in.

Should we use projection or displays in a stadium space?

Displays, almost always. Stadium hospitality spaces are brightly lit and frequently glass-fronted, and ambient light defeats a projected image at practically any brightness. Large-format displays or LED hold up in those conditions. It is one of the clearest cases where the room, rather than the budget, should decide the display technology.

What do you need to know about access?

The load-in route, dock or service access, credentialing and security requirements, parking, and the access window. Stadiums are secured buildings where equipment cannot simply arrive at a door, and all of that is arranged with the venue in advance. It is workable and routine, but it affects how many labor hours the load-in takes and therefore the quote.

Does the stadium event calendar affect our event?

It can. Corporate events are scheduled around the building’s primary calendar, and a game, concert or conversion day close to your date can affect access routes, available setup time and occasionally the spaces themselves. Asking the venue what else is happening that week is a genuinely useful planning question, and one most planners do not think to ask.

Can you provide entertainment as well as AV?

Yes. Reception and dinner music, a DJ, an MC for remarks or awards, and live musicians can all come from the same contract as the technical production. For hospitality-led stadium events that is usually the bigger part of the brief, since the technical requirement is often modest and the atmosphere requirement is not.

REQUEST A QUOTE FOR THIS VENUE

Tell us which space you are using, the guest count and whether there are remarks or a presentation. Stadium spaces vary enormously, so the room name matters more here than almost anywhere.
