About Livewire
Founded in 1999 by Kent Kolstad in Alexandria, MN, Livewire was built on the bold and ambitious idea to deliver world-class audio, lighting, live video, staging, scenery, streaming, and video production to events across the region and beyond.
For more than 25 years, Livewire has partnered with thousands of event planners to produce exceptional corporate events, conferences, nonprofit galas, concerts, and theatrical productions of every size and scope.
Now proudly headquartered in Fargo, Livewire operates without geographic boundaries, serving clients nationwide and even internationally. Backed by a team of more than 60 highly skilled fulltime professionals, the company combines deep expertise, cuttingedge technology, and a relentless commitment to excellence to deliver experiences that set new benchmarks in live and hybrid event production.
A Dynamic Industry, A Forward – Thinking Team
One of Livewire’s defining strengths is the dynamic, ever-evolving nature of its work. As client needs, technologies, and event formats continue to change, Livewire evolves alongside them by expanding services, embracing innovation, and strategically growing its capabilities.
Livewire empowers team members to contribute meaningfully from day one, inspiring curiosity, collaboration, and ownership. The company is large enough to offer complex, high-profile projects and advanced technology, yet lean enough to avoid stagnation.
What It’s Like to Work at Livewire
Starting at Livewire is both structured and hands-on. New team members are grounded quickly with clear policies, a comprehensive handbook, and colleagues who genuinely care about doing things the right way. At the same time, Livewire believes real growth comes from experience.
Team members are trusted early on to jump in, learn by doing, and build confidence through real-world projects. Questions are encouraged, no two days are the same, and learning happens constantly through collaboration and action. Team members often gain insight into every phase of a project—from concept and planning to execution and post-event wrap-up—much faster than they might elsewhere. As Livewire adapts to evolving client demands, the Livewire team is empowered to problem-solve, innovate, and grow alongside the company.

Their reasons consistently center on five themes: the pride of bringing client visions to life, the thrill of creating moments that matter, the camaraderie of a talented and supportive team, the intersection of technology and creativity, and the excitement of doing something new every day. From transforming empty rooms into extraordinary experiences to hearing the genuine “wow” from attendees, Livewire team members take deep satisfaction in the impact of their work.
Investing in the Future
Recognizing the demands of the live events industry, Livewire is also focused on smart planning that supports balance, longevity, and well-being—while maintaining a culture of trust, accountability, and shared purpose. Looking ahead to 2026, Livewire is intentionally investing in a culture built for long-term growth and sustainability.
