LiveNation250Live Nation is helping artists such as Jason Aldean and Billy Joel cut back on stadium show production costs by splitting costs between non-competing acts who perform back-to-back concerts at the same venue. According to Billboard, the strategy is saving $500,000 to $700,000 per artist–a considerable savings when production costs can reach $1.8 million.
The move also integrates hirings for staging the set. One stagehand crew, video crew and audio crew oversee the shared stage production, including video and sound components, and leave it in place for both shows. According to Chris Parr, part of Aldean’s mangement team, sharing production costs can be one of the deciding factors when considering playing a stadium show or several shows at a smaller venue.
