Artists for every event across Japan.
We source, contract and manage performers for every kind of event: corporate galas, conferences and incentives, festivals and concerts, brand launches, resort stages, weddings and private parties in Thailand, Japan, South Korea, New Zealand. One contract and one team, from the brief to the final encore.
From the opening act to the final encore, we manage the talent behind every kind of event: gala dinners, conferences, festivals, launches, residencies, weddings and private parties. We source the act, contract it, handle visas, flights and riders, and coordinate the show with your event team, under one Explera contract.
