At Fifth Color, co-ops aren’t about fetching coffee or watching from the sidelines – they’re about diving in. Over the course of your co-op, you’ll be immersed in the action, contributing to real event installations and productions nationwide, sharpening hands‑on skills, and working shoulder-to-shoulder with a team that’s building something bold on-site at every event. From the PGA and USGA to the Ryder Cup and College Football Playoff, Fifth Color has helped bring some of the biggest stages in sports to life and this is where future Fifth Color Talent gets its start.

And you’ll feel our BOLD spirit from day one. We’re Brave – unafraid to challenge the status quo and chase innovation. We’re Organized – bringing structure and clarity to even the most ambitious ideas. We’re Lively – fueling our work with creativity, energy and collaboration. And we’re Dependable – the kind of team people trust to deliver, every time. As a co-op, you won’t just witness these values in action – you’ll help bring them to life.
