305 Live was founded by Rick Latham out of a passion and drive for the events industry, based on years of experience in both indoor arenas, such as Wembley Arena & Spark Arena, and greenfield festival sites such as Download, Creamfields, Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, Wireless Festival, Pharos Festival and Rhythm & Vines.
Prior to founding 305 Live, Rick spent three years as the Head of Operations for Live Nation New Zealand and Operations Manager for Spark Arena, with the task of driving innovation and developing an operational best practice ethos. Success in these roles stemmed from experience gained in previous positions held in the UK: Health and Safety Manager for Live Nation; Venue Operations Manager at The National Bowl, Milton Keynes and Sales Manager at Wembley Arena.
We have an understanding that in order to be successful, a strong and unswerving customer focus is required: whether that be to the ticket buyer; the corporate B2B customer or the clients who hire a venue. We believe the best way to achieve this is with a solutions focused attitude.
