LMG's Music City Center Office Opens For Business In NashvilleLMG, Inc., a national provider of video, audio and lighting support, recently took part in the grand opening celebrations on May 19 - 20, 2013 for the Music City Center in Nashville, marking the official opening of LMG's onsite office as the audiovisual provider for the facility. Operating onsite under the name Music City Audiovisual, LMG signed a multi-year audiovisual contract with the Music City Center to support the 1.2 million square foot facility with dedicated onsite staff and equipment. LMG supported the grand opening celebration with video, audio, and lighting equipment for the two-day celebration in Nashville that included a ribbon cutting ceremony, with Brad Paisley showing up to play the Mayor's State of Metro address. The Nashville Symphony, Phil Vassar, Ten Out of Tenn, the Fisk Jubilee Singers, and Sheryl Crow all played free shows as part of the celebration. As part of the growing onsite team, LMG has hired several new key staff members, led by accounts manager Curt Wallen, who has been working in that role since February. New additions to the MCC team include Chris Royea as account executive, Grace Anzelmo as operations supervisor, and Niki Cardwell as show assistant. In addition, to round out the Nashville management team, Stephen Presti was promoted to regional manager and leads the LMG Nashville and Orlando show account teams. Steve Austin, hired in September 2012, manages LMG's local 24,000 office/warehouse as accounts manager. "We are very excited to be a part of the MCC team, and to be able support the celebration to mark the opening of this one of a kind facility," says Les Goldberg, CEO/president of LMG. "We look forward to the future at the Music City Center, and our new onsite staff brings a lot of experience and energy to help the MCC elevate Nashville as the next great meeting destination." The Music City Center features 1.2 million square feet, a 350,000 square foot exhibit hall, a 57,000 square foot grand ballroom and 18,000 square foot junior ballroom, and about 1,800 parking spaces. It also offers 90,000 square feet of meeting room space -- approximately 60 meeting rooms -- and 32 loading docks that provide ultimate flexibility and ease of loading in and out for convention planners. LMG has provided video, audio, and lighting support for some of the world's largest conventions and meetings, nationally televised events, international concert tours, and FORTUNE 500 company business presentations.
