Dre Hanna (she, her)
Vice President, Festival Production, Goldenvoice
In 2012, with zero festival experience, Dre Hanna began her career in the music industry for Los Angeles-based concert promoter Goldenvoice. Assisting the head of production for Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, she had to learn on the job. Now over a decade later, her advancement while designing and building some of the most prominent music festivals in the world has proven hard work and a figure-it-out attitude will take you far.
As Vice President of Festival Production for Goldenvoice, Dre thrives behind the scenes. She works with arguably the greatest operations crew in the business producing Coachella & Stagecoach, along with Los Angeles favorites like Camp Flog Gnaw Carnival and Cruel World.
In addition to helping Goldenvoice grow and improve its festival division, Dre has championed sustainability initiatives, introducing renewable diesel and increasing the use of low and zero-emission energy solutions to GV events. She is proud to provide opportunities and support to an ever-growing number of women and BIPOC individuals in the world of festival production.
When Dre is not behind a computer advancing the next show or on site overseeing a festival load in, she loves spending time at home in Nashville with her husband Luke Meek, cooking, paddle boarding or planning their next travel adventure.
