About Us

We are your entertainment specialists

Business is all about relationships.

Proximity to a service is what defines the value of a facilitator. This is exactly what an entertainment curation organisation is:

A facilitator of entertainment curation services.

The proximity that A.P.E (as an organisation) has to talent (both national and international) is what separates us from our competitors and is the primary reason why we are the preferred choice of major event companies and event managers when seeking to curate talent and book entertainment.

Let’s delve into this a little more and explain how this has come to be.

We began life from within the Recording Industry as a Record Label (iSPY Records P/L), a Music Publishing Company (Elephant Music P/L) and a recording studio (In the Pocket Productions), whilst also operating the Entertainment Division of Consolidated Lawyers and booking countless public venues. Our background is within the Recording, Television and Media industries and not outside of them.

Therefore, the relationships we hold with talent, their management, agents and associated entities are direct, personal and professional ones that have spanned over two decades.

When our curation department, A&P is commissioned to curate or source talent. our relationships allow us to call talent, management and representatives, directly. With A&P, there is never more than a single degree of separation between our clients and their talent. As such, we are able to facilitate both availability and costs for our clientele at a moment’s notice, eliminating the need for a trail of information to reach them from multiple different sources.

There are only a handful of trusted and informed talent curators with experienced staff working out of offices across Australasia and the emergence of unauthorised website agencies have pushed the costs of celebrities and in-demand artists to figures well outside of most event budgets. This is directly due to the large degrees of separation between these agencies and the talent (or their management), which results in multiple margins being paid to multiple facilitators.

A&P has for over two decades now operated transparently and ethically within the events world by introducing clients directly to talent without fear and without hesitation. This is because our business model relies on transparency in order to succeed.

Allow A&P to build your event story through entertainment whilst guaranteeing you what money simply cannot buy.

Peace of Mind.

When A.P.E is commissioned to source talent, we do not call artist agencies. We call management. We call Tour Management. Directly. One degree of separation. Facilitating both information and costs for our clientele at a moment’s notice and not subjecting them to awaiting the trail of information to reach them from multiple different sources.

There are only a handful of ‘agents’ that work out of offices across Australia and the emergence of ‘website agencies’ have pushed the costs of celebrity and in demand artists to figures outside of most event budgets. This is directly due to the large degrees of separation between these ‘agencies’ and the talent (or their management), which results in multiple margins being paid to multiple facilitators.

A.P.E wish to inform as many event colleagues as they can, that such talent is no longer out of the reach of their events. A.P.E can promise to our clientele the closest degree of separation and therein the most cost effective, fluid and professional facilitation of their booking by a licenced and experienced booking agency that specialises in the fields of corporate and private events.

The rising demand for the services of A.P.E to produce entertainment packages for the corporate and private sector has forced A.P.E to relinquish its initial title of boutique entertainment specialists and assume the role of who many now consider the official market leaders of specialised event entertainment bookings and facilitation throughout Australasia.

With A.P.E offices and staff in Sydney, Melbourne, Hong Kong, Taipei, Singapore and Macau we provide the easiest accessibility to artists represented by established senior entertainment managers that we speak to on a daily basis. Together with an AV Division with permanent staff in both Sydney & Melbourne, (as well as AV partners throughout Australia and Asia), A.P.E offers their clientele an opportunity to delegate to one provider for all of their event’s entertainment needs.

Nothing is now out of reach through A.P.E’s vast contact base and influence within an industry that they have been firmly entrenched in for the last decade.

Above all else though, A.P.E’s professionalism is what guarantees their client what money simply cannot buy…

Peace of Mind.
