about us

Putting on great events and tours is what we do. Whether it's a global awareness music and speaker event in Washington, D.C., an industry house party in LA or a bluegrass festival in the hills of the Blue Ridge we are experts at event planning and production. We are meticulous about the details working to ensure everything goes off perfectly and on schedule. We work with large and small companies, foundations, non-profits and also artists and brands to produce quality, first-rate events and tours that raise awareness and capitalize on the moment.

We're the first ones to arrive and the last ones to leave.

You need someone who can handle the entire production--the logistics, the booking, the talent, the space, the parking, the food, the sound, the lights, the stage. We handle all of that for you with seasoned creative professionals ready to make your event a one-of-a-kind experience.

Give us a call at 804-313-0815 today to discuss your event or tour.

Thanks for stopping by,

Our Services

 
 

Planning

We help you get creative. We work collaboratively to plan everything about your event from conception to reality. We're the best at mapping it all out and looking for any potential snags so we can get ahead of them and mitigate before they become a problem. Creating a perfect event doesn't happen by chance. Great events are planned out to the last detail. We do that.

Event Proposals

If you're just starting to formulate a plan for an event and need some numbers crunched and a proposal of ideas and activities that will make your event one-of-a-kind and help sell it to the others on your team or board then we can help.

Creative Space

We are the best at finding and procuring creative event spaces. Whether its a historic home in the country or a rooftop bar in the city overlooking the water let us help you find and narrow down your choices and select the right space. We have a range of available options to show you.

Non-Profits

We have a long history of working with Foundations and top Non-Profits to create pitch perfect events that help echo your organization's mission and direction while creating a unique and meaningful experience for your attendees; ultimately providing maximum awareness and fulfilling important development goals.

Corporate Events

Finding the right space and producing a perfect event for your team can be tough year after year. We take mundane corporate events and change the entire dynamic. Locking in the perfect location is the first step to any great event-getting your people to engage with each other in new and creative ways is the second. Every situation is unique and we come at you with ideas not just out of the box but smashing the box flat and recycling it into something all-together new and unique like a metaphorical origami swan.

 

One-Day Event Production

Soup to nuts. We handle everything from parking to performance. Whether its a speaker, group function, live auction or music event we create the road map for getting there and provide the manpower and expertise to make it happen dealing with vendors, agents, sub-contractors and union workers to create the perfect day.

Festival production

Putting on a one-day or multi-day festival can be a lot of hard work and we are here to help with experienced and dedicated professionals. The first thing to know is it is all about your attendees and their experience. Treat them right and they will return the favor for years to come.

Artist tours

We create specialized tours for Artists/Musicians who wish to take an alternative route to ordinary club dates. We help mold and develop tours into something unique and special for your fans.

Booking and Engagement

We help book and sign performing agreements with artists, musicians, bands and speakers to make your event the talk of the industry. We also help introduce Non-Profits and Foundations to different voices and personalities in the Hollywood, Political and Private Business worlds to create strong and powerful partnerships united in a core mission.

Diomed Productions created a unique ‘Bluegrass Under The Stars’ event that raised needed funds for our org and spread awareness about our work. All agreed it was a spectacular night and went off perfectly.
