The Music City Rigging Summit Arrives in Nashville

This fall, the Music City Rigging Summit will bring together the brightest minds in entertainment rigging, engineering, and safety for a six-day deep dive into the future of live event rigging and safety culture. Held in the heart of America's music capital, Nashville, Tennessee, this event will run from November 17 - 22, offering attendees the opportunity to expand their technical knowledge, build community, and help shape the next era of rigging education and standards.

Designed for both experienced leaders and up-and-coming professionals, the Music City Rigging Summit features a forward-looking agenda focused on advanced rigging practices, engineering insights, and the evolving safety expectations of the entertainment industry.

Attendees will gain hands-on experience and technical insight through detailed case studies of complex rigging challenges; workshops on structural engineering for live events; in-depth explorations of rigging math and load analysis; critical sessions on fall protection, rescue planning, and building a culture of safety.

"Our goal isn't just to educate -- it's to inspire a new standard for rigging training, collaboration, and accountability," says Clay Hutson, event organizer. "This summit is about building the future, together."

Featured Speakers Include: Delbert Hall - rigging educator and author; Tyler DeLong - rigging instructor and production specialist; Jeff Reder - structural engineer with decades of live event expertise; Richard Cardena, David Carmack, David Bond, Michael Sharon -- and many more respected voices in rigging and safety. Together, this lineup will guide participants through six days of interactive learning, technical problem-solving, and open forums designed to challenge assumptions and push boundaries.
