Event Staff

Build incredible experiences. See the country. Never have the same day twice.

At Activate, we create unforgettable brand experiences for some of the world's biggest companies. From mobile tours and fan festivals to pop-up shops, trade shows, and custom experiential activations, we bring brands to life in ways people remember.

We're looking for someone who loves to work with their hands, solve problems on the fly, and isn't interested in sitting behind a desk all day.

If you're equally comfortable organizing a warehouse, driving a box truck, loading a trailer, building displays, and leading an event crew on-site, this could be the perfect opportunity.

One week you might be preparing assets in our Ferndale warehouse. The next, you could be building an activation at a major sporting event, music festival, or convention somewhere across the country.
