Keeping authenticity at the heart of everything we do
Our Story
Placemaking
that started at Esquimalt Lagoon
Lagoon Productions was born out of a love for community and the deep-rooted belief that arts and culture should be accessible to everyone.
Inspired by the beaches where she grew up, Jenna Kuzemski founded Lagoon Productions as an homage to the natural gathering spots from her youth that became spaces for celebration, community, and connection. At Lagoon Productions, we bring that same spirit to our work, crafting events that feel personal yet impactful.
Jenna's career has spanned over a decade in the live event, music and marketing industries. Previous experience includes digital marketing for Live Nation Canada and Squamish Valley Music Festival, as well as marketing and project management for the City of Surrey's major events that host over 200,000 attendees annually. Some major events she worked on include Surrey Fusion Festival (Canada's largest multicultural festival), Surrey Canada Day, and Surrey Tree Lighting Festival. Jenna was also the project lead for the Surrey Music Strategy, which was released in 2023.
Jenna brings together a team of creative event specialists and sub-contractors, each with their own unique expertise in marketing, design, logistics, and production. Together, we’re committed to producing high-quality events that inspire audiences and strengthen communities.
