This week on #LincsLivesNatters, we're joined by the incredible Daz Flatman, a Grimsby-born DJ and the operations manager for ATA Events, who takes us on a fascinating journey through the music industry. From his roots in the 90s rave scene to becoming a driving force behind some of the UK's biggest festivals, Daz shares insights into managing over 20 shows a year, including international tours and major events like The Gathering and the Ella Henderson homecoming gig. He also spills the beans on the creation of his unique "So Lush Cocktails" brand, which offers distinct canned flavours like a Dr Pepper-tasting Disarano Diet Coke.
Beyond the business, Daz recounts memorable anecdotes, including a surprising encounter with East 17 and the wild logistics of DJs arriving by helicopter at a festival. He discusses the
challenges of the current festival landscape and his passion for bringing top-tier entertainment to his home turf. Tune in for a cracking episode that delves into the dedication, creativity, and sheer hard work behind the scenes of the music and events world.
