Happy 10th Birthday Premier Productions!

Founded by Roy Morgan and Gary Gentry in 1996, Premier Productions has become the No. 1 promoter of contemporary Christian concerts in the world. In the first quarter of 2005, the company shot up through the ranks and landed at No. 10 for all promoters – secular included – in the world, according to PollStar magazine.

Adored by their staff members in both North and South Carolina offices, the owners were each presented with a commemorative framed poster that reads: "Roy Morgan/Gary Gentry, whose faithful ministry over 10 years has affected more than 6 million lives at over 1,600 concerts." The frames were given to Roy and Gary on December 19th at the annual company Christmas party that took place this year in a private suite at the Charlotte Bobcats Arena. The staff enjoyed wonderful catered food and a game between the NBA Charlotte Bobcats and the Sacramento Kings.
