Who We Are
Epic Entertainment is an upbeat, fun, and growing entertainment company that provides DJ’s, Photo Booth Hosts, Décor Lighting, and more, for occasions such as, weddings, corporate events, private parties, school dances, and other special occasions.
Role and Responsibilities
You will be expected to deliver, set up, and manage our photo booth(s) at events across San Luis Obispo County and Santa Barbara County. No two events will ever be the same and you will meet lots of new people from all walks of life and get a chance to enjoy event food!
The work is event-based, and the dates, times and locations will always be specified by the client, so punctuality and attendance are crucial. You will be working primarily on your own but interacting with a lot of guests and are an important part of the event team!
