We set up a barbershop outside the stadium💈
Football's back, and we're throwing it back to one of our favorite pre-game setups with BuzzBallz 🍹 Our fresh cuts, fresh color, and crowd-favorite cocktails turned a stretch of pavement into a place fans actually wanted to be before kickoff.
Pre-game is its own kind of culture, and it deserves more than a folding table. Let's bring the energy. See you at the gates 🏈
*Please enjoy responsibly. 21+*

You may have noticed our Coloratura sculpture at Elm Street Plaza in a new clip from Cincinnati rapper Skylar Blatt. But did you know it's one of several installations bringing the public space to life?
Last month, our team explored the plaza as visitors. We strolled through, reflecting on each piece's intention and experiencing the art from street level 🎥
Because the best way to understand a space is to move in it🚶♂️✨

The moments in between are where the magic gets made.
The sketches, setups, ladders, lighting tests, last-minute tweaks and late-night load-outs. Before the doors open, while the crowd is moving and long after the final guest leaves, our team is behind the scenes making every detail count.
It’s Friday, it’s festival season, and we’re right in the middle of it. ✨
