Gomez’s set design required numerous custom-manufactured elements, creating a unique and extravagant showcase.

Tasked with fabricating a custom main stage for Ms. Gomez, Gallagher Staging utilized its expertise in touring capabilities to execute this 56-city world tour. After being provided with an initial concept from Gomez’s production team, Gallagher Staging delivered detailed build drawings for the stage assembly.
