WICHITA, KANSAS — EVENT PRODUCTION & CONSULTING
From open field
to full production.
Heartland Event Pros plans, sources, and runs live events and brand activations — strategy, sponsorship, talent, staging, F&B, signage, merch, and show-day execution, handled by one team instead of multiple vendors.
Scope
Full production or a single specialized piece — you choose the depth.
Footprint
Based in Wichita, working events across Kansas and the wider Midwest.
Background
Built on real national event and brand-activation experience, not planning theory.
HOW WE WORK
The production stack
Every event moves through the same six stages, from first concept to load-out. We run all six, or slot into wherever your team needs the most help.
Strategy & planning
Goals, audience, budget, and site logic — defined before a single vendor gets booked.
Sponsorship & partnerships
Assets packaged, brand and media partners secured, deal terms structured and negotiated.
Talent & entertainment
Talent buying, lineup curation, and contract and rider management from offer to load-in.
Staging & build
Heavy equipment, staging, signage, and site design — built to hold up under a real crowd.
Food, merch & experience
F&B, apparel, ad specialty, and the experiential touches that guests actually remember.
Show day & strike
Run of show, on-site management, and teardown — the part most planners never stay for.
CAPABILITIES
Everything under one call sheet
Hire the whole list, or pull in exactly what your team is missing.

Joshua's experience spans traditional and non-traditional venues across North America — from city parks, parking lots, and open fields to full-scale stadiums. He specializes in putting stages and audiences in unique spaces, wherever an event calls for it.

Heartland Event Pros was built to bring that same level of operational experience to brands, venues, and organizers who need one accountable partner instead of a stack of disconnected vendors.
