Hello!

CHECKMATE PRODUCTIONS

We’re a female led team of producers, creatives, and cultural programmers with decades experience delivering bold, immersive, and community-rooted events across the UK and Europe. Whether you’re building a major light festival, a pop-up theatre experience, or a locally led celebration - we know how to shape big ideas into brilliant moments. We’ve worked across heritage, festivals, street arts, digital installations, and immersive storytelling, always with a belief that cultural experiences should be ambitious, accessible, and genuinely impactful. From concept to clean-up, we bring passion, precision, and people-first values to every stage of delivery.

What makes us different? We're producers, stage managers, artists, and content creators who genuinely care about getting every detail right. We're storytellers at heart, and we believe every event should leave a real impact. When we work with you, it's truly collaborative - we're not just executing your vision, we're helping shape it. At the end of the day, creativity, community, and care aren't just buzzwords for us - they're what drive everything we do.

Who we are

We are Lizzie, Katie-Lou & Melissa, a crew of event pros who've been doing this for decades - and we absolutely love what we do.

Between all of us, we've got serious experience in live production, event staffing, programming, and making creative visions come to life.

Whether you're planning a massive public festival or an intimate community gathering, we know how to make it happen.
