Things in events that are TOTALLY worth the money 💸

After enough years spent in festival fields, conference venues, backstage areas and site offices, Natasha has developed some fairly strong opinions on where it’s worth spending the budget.

Some are strategic, some are practical, some revolve around caffeine ☕

➡️ Swipe for Natasha’s five things she’ll happily argue are worth every penny.

What would you add to the list?

A month in Glasgow...

This June and July, Natasha swapped Gloucestershire for Glasgow, relocating for almost a month to work as Site Manager at Glasgow Summer Sessions 2026 in Bellahouston Park.

Across six nights, the festival welcomed some of the biggest names in live music, including:
🎶 The Lumineers
🎶 Teddy Swims
🎶 Alanis Morissette
🎶 Pitbull
🎶 Kings of Leon
🎶 My Chemical Romance

As Site Manager, Natasha was responsible for the day-to-day operation of the festival site, working alongside contractors, production teams, suppliers and promoters to ensure each show was delivered safely and efficiently.

A huge thanks to everyone we worked alongside throughout the series, including @aplevent @smmrsessions

A little local job… 🌲

Last week, Tom and Anna swapped the office for the fields to help install the festoon lighting at @2000trees_festival, working alongside the brilliant team at @peakhire to get the site ready for another incredible weekend of live music.

Tom then got to enjoy the festival before swapping his festival wristband for work gloves, as he, Natasha, Anna, and our trusted freelancers returned after the weekend to help with the de-rig.

We’re always happy to roll up our sleeves and support fantastic local events.

It’s always a pleasure to play a small part in bringing one of the UK’s favourite independent festivals to life alongside so many brilliant local event suppliers.

We hope everyone had an amazing weekend at 2000trees, and we’re looking forward to doing it all again at @arctangentfestival in a few weeks’ time!

✨ A weekend at Worcester Mela ✨

We were proud to support Worcester Mela Festival with the delivery of this year’s event.

Mela is a colourful community celebration of creativity and culture with a schedule packed full of activities based around live music, incredible food, arts and crafts and dance.

The event also featured workshops, a market, sports activities and food traders.

For Team NR:
🌟 Alice was Production Managing the event
🌟 Anna was on site supporting the delivery
🌟 We also supplied an Artist Liaison/ Stage Manager, Event Control Logger and Crew from our bank of trusted freelancers.

We loved working on an event that bought together so many people to celebrate culture and the power of community.

A huge thanks to @worcestermela for bringing us on board to help deliver this event!

🎉 HIGHER LOVE 🎉

Last month, Natasha headed to Malta to support Higher Love Festival, working across four incredible locations as part of the on-the-ground operations team.

They included:
📍 Café del Mar
📍 Pacha Beach Club
📍 Monte Kristo Estate
📍 Gianpula Village Club

Natasha worked alongside Russell Pate and supported G7 Events Malta, helping to manage the live operational delivery of the festival with the key aim of keeping things moving smoothly behind the scenes while guests enjoyed the festival.

Not a bad way to spend your birthday, eh Natasha? 🎂☀️

Proof once again that a career in events can take you anywhere! 🏝️
