262 Five Ltd

262 Five is a full-service event production and entertainment company that specializes in custom live experiences and brand marketing activations. It’s the mission of 262 Five to not only provide a memorable experience for event attendees and activation participants but to also provide the absolute best experience for the client. In 1997, co-founders Brinson Strickland and Kyle Gustie were working together on the same national tour, Strickland as Tour Manager and Gustie as Director of Tours and Events for GMR Marketing. They quickly bonded over being "that guy"- the ones who are always able to get things done, no matter what. Whether an artist needed something in an unknown city, a sponsor wanted to throw a last minute party for 200 people, a crew member needed a last-minute piece of equipment, Strickland and Gustie (or Kyle and Brinson) were the guys to get it done. The two spent years on and off the road earning the trust of their colleagues and partners, leading to long-lasting relationships which led to 262 Five's official beginning in 2003. With over 65 combined years of experience, Brinson and Kyle have the knowledge, relationships, and resources to make any event a huge success. Gustie and Strickland's broad backgrounds in sponsorship activations, artist management, tour management, and event production provide them with the tools necessary to produce events of any size, book talent, and secure third party sponsorships.
