Mental Health & Wellbeing for Event-Crews 

No Crew – No Show

Anyone who builds and dismantles events works hard – physically and mentally. Long hours, tight schedules, constant travel, little sleep and high pressure aren’t exceptions; they’re the norm. Being away from loved ones for extended periods and lacking emotional support takes a toll. It affects everyone who shows up every day – whether on stage, in lighting, audio, power, or behind the wheel of a truck or bus.

What is The Maya CrewCare?

Mental-health and wellbeing support for people working in the live events industry – directly on-site, with coaching, prevention, and practical tools.

What we offer in practise:

Mental-Health-Support

Empathetic, on-site support with an open ear – for crew members who need mental relief.

Stress Regulation & Resilience

Breathing techniques and three-minute relaxation tools – compact methods that work immediately, even between acts.

Selfcare-Time

Coffee, music, or movement: we create spaces for recovery – before exhaustion turns into illness.

Long-Term Support

We help event organizers integrate mental health sustainably – from planning to post-production.

Why is this needed?

Because prolonged pressure, little sleep, and a tough daily routine take a toll. The Maya CrewCare ensures that our colleagues stay resilient and motivated.

Stress is not a sign of weakness – it is a natural response to excessive demands. But without opportunities to recover, it can quickly become a health risk: sleep disturbances, irritability, physical complaints, withdrawal, or even burnout can follow.

A well-designed mental health program protects not only individual crew members but also strengthens team spirit, increases performance, and reduces absences and turnover in the long run.

For whom ?

For all trades in the live events sector – riggers, technicians, logistics teams, stagehands, project managers, and everyone who makes live shows possible.

What´s the benefit for organicers and productions?

• Reduced sick leave and turnover

• Fewer accidents

• A stronger sense of togetherness

• Clear positioning: We take care of our people!

You carry the show – we take care of you!
