✨ Staff Spotlight: Ben Mehdi – Production & Operations ✨
Some people help build a festival from the spotlight. Others help build it quietly behind the
scenes, making sure everything runs smoothly so everyone else can experience the magic.
Ben is one of those people.
A longtime part of the Electric Love family, Ben’s journey goes back years — all the way to the
Agassiz days. Since then, he’s become one of the people helping keep the wheels turning
behind the scenes, supporting production and operations, helping solve problems, keeping
people safe, and stepping in wherever help is needed.
Because if you know Ben, you know standing still usually is not part of the plan.
One of the things that keeps him coming back year after year is the community.
The people who work hard together. The positive energy. The way people genuinely show up for
one another. Festivals can feel like organized chaos sometimes — and Ben genuinely loves
being part of that process. Jumping in where he’s needed. Supporting the crew. Helping bring
everything together.
And while the work matters, so does the place we get to do it.
The new grounds have become one of his favourite parts of Electric Love. Surrounded by
beautiful landscapes and nature, Ben makes a point to slow down when he can — getting out
for a run, a hike, or simply taking a few moments to take it all in.
Because sometimes the magic exists both inside the festival gates and outside them.
And the reason he keeps coming back? Simple.
The people. The music. The energy. The connection to nature.
“There’s nothing quite like it.”
Thank you for everything you bring to Electric Love, Ben. Your hard work, steady support, and
behind-the-scenes dedication help make this place what it is 💜⚡
