Costa Rica Pop-Up Club
In a 90-day window, Catalyst conceived of and designed a venue for an event and awards ceremony gathering, celebrating a global tech firm’s elite group of incentive winners to celebrate in style. Catalyst erected a tent, two-thirds of which was transformed into a lush living Costa Rican rain forest, where attendees entered through a dramatic tunnel made from organic materials into a dinner theater, fully adorned with organic flora and fauna. The final third— revealed later in the evening upon removal of an LED wall—included a white and silver disco floor. Completing the stage design and show theme, for which Catalyst conceptualized and produced, was a runway stage featuring “Tia Tierra,” a drag character written for this show, along with her singers and dancers.

The custom entrance is created from living materials and locally-crafted items.



This LED panel carried visual content during the dinner show, featuring ”Tia Tierra.” After dinner and the show, the panel flew out to reveal the glittering disco.

The big reveal.
