About Us

Atlanta concert production

Rival Entertainment has been producing concerts and music-centric festivals in Atlanta since 2004.

Principals Josh Antenucci and Lucy Freas each bring 20-plus years of experience in their respective areas of expertise, event production and show booking. Supported by an all-star concert production team in marketing, technical production, box office and vendor management, Rival creates positive and memorable event experiences for ticket buyers, artists, venues and event sponsors alike.

The home base of Rival’s Atlanta concert production team is Center Stage Atlanta—which encompasses Center Stage Theater, The Loft and Vinyl—where the Rival crew produces 350+ shows annually. Beyond Center Stage’s doors, we also create live music events and work on behalf of clients to execute their event vision, whether on a city street, in a park, on private property or in a traditional venue. These include Centennial Olympic Park, The Arena at Gwinnett Center, The Fox Theatre, Cobb Energy Performing Arts Center, Candler Park, Piedmont Park, Historic Fourth Ward Park and more.
