Learn What Works in the Real World
RS25 is all about real-world learning. Throughout the day, you’ll have access to a full lineup of seminar sessions led by experienced professionals in audio, lighting, and video. Whether you’re working in a theatre, school, church, or live event setting, these sessions are designed to give you practical, applicable skills you can take straight back to your venue.
Choose the sessions that matter most to your role — from mixing techniques, lighting control, and in-ear monitoring to video systems, signal flow, and creative tech solutions. You’ll learn alongside others who do what you do, in sessions built around actual production challenges and workflows.
Whether you’re just starting out or have years of experience behind the console, you’ll walk away with fresh ideas, practical tools, and a better way to tackle your next gig.
