"As General Manager of Mercedes-Benz Stadium at the time, I had the pleasure of working with them when we hosted the 2018 College Football Playoff National Championship game (CFP).
We had just opened the stadium 6 months prior to this event. As you can imagine, hosting such a premier event with a huge broadcast footprint in a new building is challenging. Kilowatt Events worked on behalf of ESPN where they were in charge of designing and operating the TV compound (which consists of infrastructure that rivals the Super Bowl). Kilowatt executed the plan well and quickly made the inevitable adjustments that respected the building as all of the other stakeholders and productions that had to operate in a congested Back of House area.
Thankfully, everything went very smoothly due to a talented team of dedicated people working together to fit the pieces of the puzzle together. Anthony and his team were a critical part of the team that made it all work.
I would highly recommend Kilowatt Events. Their people are experienced, hard working, and dependable. They are also nice people." - Scott Jenkins
Kilowatt Events has been working on behalf of ESPN to design and build their tv compound for the College Football Playoff (CFP) National Championship Game since 2016. This game moves around the country to different professional football stadiums every year. Each year, we are challenged by a different sized footprint and a different climate. We navigate the constantly changing needs of the ESPN teams and tight timeline for both the build and strike.
