Calm, documented tour operations—built to execute.
Apex Tour Services (ATS) provides live entertainment consulting and touring services, supporting tours, festivals, and live productions worldwide as an extended touring team.
What ATS is
A fractional Tour Operations Department—execution-first, systems-driven, and built to reduce chaos.
- Tour operations planning + execution
- Single source of truth + documentation
- Real-time coordination and risk mitigation
What ATS is not
Clear boundaries keep tours clean.
- Not artist management
- Not a staffing agency
- Not software / SaaS
- Not corporate event services
Core service
Tour Operations Concierge Service—delivering outcomes, not tools. We design, build, and manage the operational backbone that keeps the tour moving.
Operations
- Advance management — structured venue workflows, confirmation loops, and show-ready deliverables.
- Routing, schedules, day sheets — accurate, updated, distributed with discipline.
- Venue & promoter liaison — calm communication, clear requirements, fewer surprises.
- Real-time change management — updates made once, reflected everywhere.
Financial discipline
- Budget tracking & settlement oversight — organized, consistent, audit-ready.
- Hard costs vs fees separation — clarity for management and accounting.
- Tour-level chart of accounts — standardized reporting and wrap.
- Wrap package — final summaries, records, and lessons captured.
Add-ons
Available separately. These are labor-heavy and never bundled.
- Hospitality & Catering Concierge — sourcing, coordination, and execution support.
- Transportation & Logistics Procurement — vendor sourcing and coordination.
- Plug-In Staffing — TM, PM, coordinators, show support (scoped).
Operating principles
- Documentation beats memory — the tour runs on truth, not tribal knowledge.
- Systems beat heroics — repeatability reduces burnout.
- Calm beats chaos — tone is a tool.
- Execution beats theory — deliverables over decks.
Who we serve
Mid-tier to large-scale tours, festivals, and special productions.
- Artist teams — management, agents, and internal operations.
- Independent promoters — scalable operational support.
- Festivals & special events — disciplined coordination under pressure.
