Rupert Bassadone
Rupert Bassadone was born into the world of events, with his first experiences rooted in the circus run by his family. This unique beginning honed his love for order and flair for juggling, both literally and metaphorically in his roles, setting the stage for his future career.
His professional journey formally began in 2006, quickly evolving from indoor exhibitions and food festivals to major events and outdoor spectacles.
Today, he now wears three hats. Rupert is managing director of Ops People, specialising in system-centric event production for the likes of WOMAD Festival, Red Bull Soapbox Race, Kilimanjaro concerts, Shindig Festival and The London To Brighton Veteran Can Run.
He is the founder of Event Site Design, at the forefront of event surveying and precision site mapping, for incredible events such as Kings Coronation, London Bridge, Lapland UK, Sail GP and Southampton International Boat Show.
And finally, he is an educator with an online course aimed at teaching event professionals to draw their own site plans.
