Our goal is to champion these artists and feature them on one of our touring or festival properties and ultimately place them on the biggest national headlining tour of their career.”

About Outbreak Presents:
Since 2011, The Monster Energy Outbreak Tour has given fans early access to Discover What’s Next by aligning our sponsor brands with mega stars on the verge of breaking. They included The Chainsmokers, Kendrick Lamar, Iggy Azalea, Logic, Fetty Wap, Post Malone and Kane Brown on their largest national headlining tours at the time. The company produces six national tours a year across six different genres, alongside an annual week-long residency for Super Sponsor Monster Energy at the annual Monster Energy SXSW Outbreak House.
In 2016, a new property was formed called the Up & Up Festival. It has rival college students compete online to bring a national artist to perform at their school. www.outbreakpresents.comAbout Monster Energy: Most companies spend their money on ad agencies, TV commercials, radio spots and billboards to tell you how good their products are.

We promote concert tours, so our favorite bands can visit your hometown.
