RIDE OR DIE ACT | “Green Day. I route tours to ‘Dookie’ on repeat.”
ON ACHIEVING WORK/LIFE BALANCE: “I love my family, friends and work. I try to make choices everyday that don’t take the joy each of them bring me for granted.” 

When Fallon Nell learned she was being honored as one of the 2026 Women of Live, she instantly knew what she wanted her profile to focus on, as she was thrilled to have “the opportunity to work on incredible female-led tours last year.”

ALIVE AND WELL
“Promoting the sold-out ‘We Can Do Hard Things Tour’ with Glennon Doyle, Abby Wambach and Amanda Doyle was the highlight of 2025 for me. The tour raised $467,650 for nonprofit organizations helping immigrant families. I’m so inspired by their work. It was a joy to work with a powerhouse female-led team at WME (Carrie Murphy, Margaret Riley King and Lara Christie) to make it happen.

“Nikki Glaser’s ‘Alive and Unwell Tour’ was a big success for everyone involved last year—132 shows with eight at the Beacon, six at the Wang in Boston, five at the Paramount in Denver. Fans kept buying tickets, and we kept adding shows. It was an incredible booking experience working with great venues. Also, Outback just did a really special Nashville show with Bunnie Xo here in Nashville for her book release. And, I’m really excited about bringing the ‘I’ve Had It Podcast’ with Jennifer Welch and Angie ‘Pumps’ Sullivan to the stage this year.”

THE STATE OF WOMEN IN THE BIZ
“Women are the opportunity. We are more educated, financially independent and socially engaged right now than ever before. I see ticket sales that reveal women are interested in meaningful live events that inspire them. There’s an incredible opportunity for female artists and thought leaders to take the stage right now. We must continue to bring women live entertainment that fires them up, and the best industry leaders to do that are women. As long as women keep showing up for each other, we will keep shattering the glass ceilings. When the most popular live performer in the world is a woman, it’s safe to say women’s ideas are here to stay.”

ADVICE TO THE UP-AND-COMERS
“Every email, call and meeting builds your reputation. Your integrity belongs to you, so don’t let anyone else be the narrator of your story.”
