NOW HIRING: The Orange Crush® HBCU & College Promoter Wave
NOW HIRING: The Orange Crush® HBCU & College Promoter Wave
Inside the New Generation of Campus Leaders Powering One of the South’s Biggest Cultural Movements
In a time when student culture moves faster than traditional marketing, one thing is clear: the next era of event promotion will be led by students themselves. Orange Crush®—the trademarked, official multicity festival series dominating Spring Break 2026—is launching its largest-ever HBCU and College Promoter Recruitment Program, and campuses across the South are already buzzing.
From Miami to Tybee Island, Savannah to Jacksonville, Atlanta to Alabama, the new Orange Crush® season isn’t just about massive crowds—it’s about building student leadership pipelines, empowering young influencers, and giving HBCUs and colleges a real seat at the table in shaping the culture they represent.
And for the first time, the festival is openly hiring.
THE NEW ROLE: Campus Promoter = Culture Curator
A promoter in 2026 is not the old-school street-team flyer kid.
A promoter today is:
a connector
a brand voice
a micro-influencer
a culture ambassador
a student strategist
a community leader
Orange Crush® is designing the promoter program around these realities—not the other way around.
Promoters are the engine of the festival.
They create energy before the crowds show up.
They translate the brand into student culture.
They shape the identity of each event city.
And now, they get paid for it.
WHY ORANGE CRUSH®? WHY NOW?
The festival’s 2026 tour is the biggest in its 30+ year history—and the most tightly branded, trademark-protected, and professionally organized version to date.
The events now span:
Miami Spring Break
Tybee/Savannah Weekend 1 & 2
Crush The Block™ Student Finale
Crush Atlanta Pool Parties
Orange Crush® Jacksonville Juneteenth Weekend
Additional HBCU homecoming activations
This reach means promoter teams are needed on campuses across:
Georgia
Florida
Alabama
South Carolina
North Carolina
Mississippi
Tennessee
Louisiana
Promoters are the “boots on the ground”—and in 2026, they also become brand partners, not helpers.
