Concert Tour Trucking FAQs
Are you able to accommodate international tours or tours with multiple legs?
Yes, we can handle international tours in the U.S and Canada as well as multi-leg tours, ensuring your equipment is transported directly to each venue without warehousing or delays.
How do you handle load-in and load-out at each venue?
We can provide a crew to assist with teardown, loading, and unloading at each venue. We can also provide blanket wrap services for added protection during transit. Our drivers work behind the scenes, resting during the show and then driving to the next venue overnight after load-out is done. Once they get the truck staged up at the next venue, they unstrap container cases, back up the trailer and pull the ramp out so it’s ready for load-in.
Do you have experience working with bands or performing groups of our size and genre?
At Village Transport, we have extensive experience providing live event logistics and tour trucking for bands and performing groups of all sizes and genres, including performances at major venues and concert halls across the U.S.
