Service 01

Corporate

Your company, for the length of a show, changes dimension.

Gala evening, convention, awards ceremony, company anniversary, closing seminar: your employees and guests will remember the moment, not the PowerPoint.

We design performances that open, pace or close your event — and carry your message without ever imposing it.

What we stage

  • Choreographed evening opening, to launch the event with a strong image
  • Set pieces blending dance, aerial and acrobatics, adapted to your venue
  • Fire and light performances for the highlights
  • Integration of your brand identity: colours, logo, message, product
  • Hosting and roaming artists to dress up cocktails and transitions

Why us

We know how to work with your constraints: precise timing, floor plan, safety, brand image. You keep control of the message, we take care of the show.

A date, a venue, an ambition? Let's build your show.

Service 02

Sporting events

The energy of the field, elevated on stage.

Half-time, opening or closing ceremony, trophy presentation, stand entertainment: sport is spectacle, and spectacle is our craft.

Our teams are used to large formats and broadcast stakes. We create performances calibrated for stadiums, arenas and the camera.

What we stage

  • High visual impact opening and half-time shows
  • Large-scale choreographies, designed to be seen from afar and on screen
  • Aerial, fire and acrobatic performances for the turning points
  • Staging built around your colours, your athletes, your discipline
  • Coordination with your technical teams and safety constraints

Why us

Our artists have already performed on the biggest sporting stages. We know the tempo of a broadcast event and the demands of an audience of several thousand.

A match, a title, a ceremony to make memorable? We've got it.

Service 03

Inaugurations

An opening that sets the tone, right from the start.

Opening of a store, headquarters, industrial site, complex or cultural space: the first impression cannot be replayed.

We turn your inauguration into an event people talk about — with a show designed for your venue and to reveal what you are opening.

What we stage

  • Choreographed curtain-raiser on the inaugurated space
  • Aerial and fire performances to create the wow effect from the entrance
  • Roaming acts and welcome set pieces for your guests
  • Highlighting your venue: we play with architecture, light, volumes
  • A strong sequence for the ribbon-cutting and photos

Why us

An inauguration is tight timing and a single chance. We design a moment that will stay in memories — and in the images your guests will share.

A venue to open beautifully? Let's talk.

Service 04

Seminars

Wake up the room. Leave a mark on minds.

A seminar means long hours of attention to hold. A performance at the right moment recharges energy, creates a breathing space and leaves a shared memory.

We perform at the opening, between speeches or at the close, to turn a working day into an experience.

What we stage

  • An opening that sets the energy of the day
  • Short, punchy performances between the programme's highlights
  • A closing show to end on a high note
  • Participative or immersive performances to engage your teams
  • Your seminar's messages and themes woven into the performance

Why us

We slip into your schedule without disturbing it. Goal: your participants leave with energy and a strong image of the day.

A seminar to energise? We have what it takes.

Service 05

Product launches

Your product, in the spotlight. Literally.

A successful launch is a moment of revelation. We stage your product as the star of the evening: the show builds the tension, the emotion and the turning point where your product appears.

Your guests will not watch a presentation — they will live a reveal.

What we stage

  • A choreographed reveal sequence around the product
  • Aerial and fire performances to build anticipation and the climax
  • Bespoke staging in your colours and brand universe
  • The product at the heart of the performance
  • Space styling: welcome, roaming, transitions

Why us

We think of the show as a story: every set piece leads to the moment your product takes the light. That is the moment that stays — and that circulates after the evening.

A product to launch in style? Let's create the scene.

Service 06

Weddings & private events

The show that makes your evening unforgettable.

Wedding, anniversary, exceptional private evening: give your guests a moment they did not expect. Reinvented first dance, surprise set piece, fire performance under the stars.

We create the sequence that tips your evening into memory. Elegant, spectacular, in your image.

What we stage

  • Staged first dance or bridal entrance
  • Aerial, acrobatic and dance performances for the evening's highlight
  • Spectacular, safe outdoor fire show
  • Roaming and hosting artists to elevate the cocktail hour and dinner
  • Bespoke creation around your story and atmosphere

Why us

We know how to create the surprise effect while respecting your event's elegance. Discretion beforehand, spectacle on the day, a memory forever.

A date to mark forever? Let's imagine your moment.

The team

The faces behind the stage.

An agency is first about people. Here are those who design, coordinate and deliver your events — three journeys, one standard of excellence.

Sophiane Boukabache

Choreographer & Artistic Director

Sophiane Boukabache

Sophiane is the artistic eye of MVP Event. A dancer and choreographer trained between France and Los Angeles, he has been working in the world of stage and events since 2005, where he has become one of the references of choreographed hip-hop.

Founder of the crews So United Crew and So Unikid, he led his teams to the top: European champion, finalist at the world championship in Las Vegas, several times French champion, and revealed to the public on television. On stage, he shared the bill with Soprano, Will.i.am, Justin Bieber and Flo Rida, and created performances for the UEFA Euro 2016, the NRJ Music Awards and the inauguration of the Parc Olympique Lyonnais. He is also the choreographer of the musical show Diamond Dance.

Sought after by the biggest brands — Adidas, Coca-Cola, Crédit Agricole — he designs themed shows, happenings and immersive stagings. His signature: limitless creativity in the service of a precise emotion.

Noémie Bénafou

Project Manager & Coordinator

Noémie Bénafou

Noémie is the one who turns an idea into a perfectly timed event. Twice French hip-hop champion, she knows the stage from the inside before knowing it through organisation — a rare dual culture that makes the difference when you need both to understand artists and to meet a spec.

Her journey took her from competition to project coordination within Uppernation and Uppernation Projects, via recognised collectives such as Da Squad, Élaboration Urbaine and Rhoff. From the first meeting to the last light, she is the one who orchestrates: schedule, artists, tech, logistics.

Her strength: the rigour of an organiser, the eye of a dancer. Nothing slips through, everything is ready on the day.

Walid Boukabache

Director & Project Lead

Walid Boukabache

A former professional dancer turned filmmaker, Walid bridges live performance and image. Founder and CEO of the Lyon-based agency Uppernation, he has built a recognised creation and production company, his own studios in Vaulx-en-Velin, and delivered campaigns broadcast up to national television.

A former member of So United Crew, he knows the stage through the body before knowing it through the lens. This dual culture — dancer and director — feeds every project: he thinks of the show as a narrative, with a sense of framing, rhythm and emotion. On an MVP event, he leads production and ensures the result lives up to the ambition.

His signature: the pursuit of image quality in the service of live performance.

Together, we cover the whole chain: design, coordinate, produce. That is what guarantees an event with no surprises.
