On The Scene has produced a variety of events at The Field Museum, from corporate dinners and galas to recognition events and private parties. One of the most notable events we’ve produced was the Everything is Dead 50th Anniversary Party celebrating the 50th anniversary of legendary band, The Grateful Dead. This exclusive event was held on the Southeast Terrace of The Field Museum. We also produced the Official Dead Head VIP Pre-Party, where dedicated fans were able to mingle on The Field Museum’s Northeast Terrace, while listening to Uncle John’s Band, and enjoying craft beer from Two Brothers Brewery.
