Behind every successful event is an incredible crew.

We're proud to support this CrewCare initiative. If you work in live events, take 5 minutes to have your say and help shape the future of our industry. 🙌

Do you work in Australian Live Events?

📣The CrewCare Live Event Crew Poll is here!

We want to hear from Australian Crew who make live music and events happen.

It takes less than 5 minutes, is completely anonymous, and will help us better understand the experiences, challenges and priorities of crew across Australia.

Your feedback will directly inform future CrewCare initiatives, training opportunities, wellbeing programs and industry advocacy.

🎤 Whether you’re behind the desk, up the truss, on the road or side of stage – your voice matters.

Top 10 Crew Essentials…

Boots laced ✅
Hard hat on ✅
Hi-vis 🔛 ✅
…smiles ✅
…and then even more smiles ✅

But the real essentials?

It’s the teamwork.
The “I’ve got you” when the labor gets hectic.
The inside jokes mid-pack down when everyone’s running on pure fumes only.
The camaraderie that somehow turns chaos into a system.

Because let’s be real -
it’s never just PPE and checklists.

It’s
👉🏻 controlled chaos
👉🏻 organised madness
👉🏻 20 people moving in sync without saying a word… and then all shouting over each other 2 seconds later. 🤪

If you know, you know! 👷‍♀️🎶🥁

Stop posting the highlight…..

Start posting the hustle.

Why? Because the highlight… is the easy part!

The REAL story is everything that happens before a single light turns on, before the artist gets to site, before the very first early-bird fan arrives.

It’s the early call times when the venues still empty. The stage that doesn’t exist yet. The Scaff build going up piece by piece, turning into the screen you’ll later film your favourite artist on!

It’s the 10,000 cables - all coiled perfectly… except the one sucker that humbles you for two hours 🤪 (…rookie error - we’ve all been there).

It’s the back and forth, shouting over road cases, the constant “watch your fingers”; the sweat, rush, chaos that somehow works. Sometimes even a bit of blood. Always a lot of grit.

Then for a moment… you breathe.
The crowd comes in, the show happens.
And no-one sees what it took to get there.

Then before you know it you’re back at it - packing it all down, truck packed like life-size Tetris, on the clock, because the next city is already waiting.

That’s the hustle. That’s the part we don’t always post…

But it’s the whole reason the highlight exists. 🥁

Blokes will lift a 200kg truss…
but won’t say how they’re really going.

Start the conversation. Stay for the answer. Not just this week – every week.

Because not every struggle looks like one.

The 5 biggest labour hire myths we see (and quietly fix every week 👀)…

Spoiler: it’s not about more crew!

It’s about the right crew.

How much do you prioritise your mental health?

Mental health is safety.
Long hours and high-pressure environments have real impact... so we’re backing a culture where it’s okay to not be okay, and support is always encouraged.

We take pride in what we build - and the people who build it.
A reminder to prioritise rest, recovery, and real check-ins. Progress over perfection.

We’re great at bump-in... but not always great at checking in. So:

Be kind.

Be real.

Be the mate who checks in.
