Title: HFEC Starts Herschend Live
Post by: shavethewhales on August 17, 2018, 03:05:49 PM

After a few years of owning the Globetrotters, it seems HFEC has elected to create a new company under the HFEC umbrella specifically focused on live entertainment. The Globetrotters seem to be the main focus of this at the moment, but obviously they seem to be looking at adding more. Hopefully this could spur some interesting new shows that may make the rounds at the parks.

The goal was always to use the performing networks that the Globetrotters already have in place to add other acts to the system.

I think this will be a hard market for HFEC especially with Disney and Cirque du Soleil.  Cirque recently acquired Blue Man Group and the company that puts out Cirque Dreams and the group that puts out productions like Paw Patrol Live.  I guess we'll see what happens
