Story Highlights
A little over a week ago, NFL fans from around the nation came to Allegiant Stadium to witness the Kansas City Chiefs victory over the San Francisco 49ers in Super Bowl LVIII. At the controls of the in-venue production, the trio of the National Football League's game-presentation team, Van Wagner, and Allegiant Stadium's AV production team put together a stellar run of show that entertained attendees from start to finish.
At the 2024 SVG Venue Summit on Monday, March 4, a keynote conversation - featuring the NFL's Director of Event Presentation & Content, Tim Tubito; Van Wagner's President of Productions, Bob Becker; and Allegiant Stadium's Director of Production Technology, Aric Carpenter - will go behind the scenes of the Big Game and discuss how this major sporting event is assembled.
The discussion will headline a full day of panel sessions and conversations, including:

After heading to Las Vegas, the Raiders have staked their claim as a must-see destination in a city with a ton of options. After three years in their new home, the crew has gotten comfortable with the technology at their disposal and have elevated their production quality to new heights. Members of the club's production team take you back to when the stadium was first put together, the challenges that were navigated to bring their control room up to speed, the special elements and activations seen on a typical gameday, and more.
