Graduation Party — Viljandi

Graduations in Viljandi fall in June, which means daylight until eleven and outdoor venues that looked fine in April but flood sound across a lake by evening. You need a rig that works in full sun, a timeline that accounts for speeches running over, and a crew who can pull cable across wet grass without the DJ noticing.

Load-in starts early — six or seven, depending on the venue. Sound check happens before guests arrive, because there is no second chance once three hundred people are standing between you and the mixer. After 5 Events handles the room, the power, the lights, and the point when someone realizes the projector needs to face a different wall.
