Theatre & Orchestra Tour Management
Theatre & Orchestra Logistics
Chaucer Freight is the One-Stop resource for world-class, full service Theatre & Orchestra tour and event logistics. Chaucer Freight's event specialists are trained to support all logistics services for tours and concerts worldwide. Often working as a direct member of the tour management team, we liaise with tour and production managers providing roadies, tour drivers, sleeper buses, splitter vans, and tour merchandise sellers as required
With 107 musicians, Conductor, two soloists, staff and several tonnes of freight packed into crates and pallets, the logistics of transporting an Orchestra across the globe are immense, however with offices in over 150 countries worldwide, Chaucer Freight staff are knowledgeable in all aspects of event logistics, including domestic and international transport of equipment and personal effects, specialized customs clearance processes, timeline management, and setting up on-site services.
Our expertise at providing logistics for live events includes orchestral performances, performances in theatre, musicals, circus, dance, magic and pageants. We are able to transport the most fragile of instruments through to staging, lights, sound equipment, costumes and props.
With Chaucer Freight there is no need to 'break a leg', we ensure that you, your equipment and performers arrive first time, every time.
