Foro Independencia: corporate event merch in Guadalajara

Foro Independencia, in central Guadalajara, is one of the venues with the longest tradition for concerts, expos, launches and corporate events in the metropolitan area. We use it as a venue for artist tours, trade expos, brand launches, exhibitions, premieres, showcases, conferences and discussion forums. We work with corporates with operations in Jalisco and with producers running tours through western Mexico, with delivery and merch setup directly at the venue between 48 and 72 hours before the event.

The venue and its context

Foro Independencia is located in central Guadalajara, with quick access from the metropolitan area — Zapopan, Tlaquepaque, Tonalá, Tlajomulco — from the Miguel Hidalgo airport and from the Andares, Plaza del Sol, Plaza Galerías, Gran Plaza, Centro Magno and industrial zone areas. The Americana, Moderna, Lafayette, Providencia and Chapultepec neighbourhoods are high corporate density areas that produce events with audiences ranging from 200 to 3,000 people.

The venue combines central floor, stands, food truck area and backstage with dressing rooms. Delivery logistics runs on two layers. Venue delivery arrives at the loading area 48-72 hours before the event, in boxes with packing list and coded guest list. Event-day setup installs the floor POP, the gifts at the entrance, the stage back wall and the registration material. Coordination with the venue production team is continuous during the 24 hours before the event.
