Faerieworlds (and FaerieCon) are international, fantasy themed music and arts events that have attracted over 25,000 guests annually. Described by Maxim as “A Bonnaroo staged in Middle Earth,” Faerieworlds has continued to redefine and inspire music festivals in the Pacific Northwest and beyond with its unique international lineup of bands inspired by native and European folklore and mythology.

Sheena Khan was the Artist Coordinator/Talent Buyer for Faerieworlds and FaerieCon. Her responsibilities included extensive market, talent, & venue research, visa petitioning, artist logistics, staffing, budgeting, contracts administration & negotiation, artist management, marketing strategy, artist merchandising and accounting. Sheena also introduced an acclaimed French Folk music series that included platinum-selling artists.

"Sheena is a dedicated self-starter and problem solver with exceptional initiative, intellectual focus, balance and willingness to do what is necessary for the job at hand. She sourced a variety of international artists who successfully expanded our market. She also received numerous commendations from our artists, many of whom can be demanding and high maintenance clients."

 - Robert Gould, Acclaimed fantasy artist and Faerieworlds Co-Producer 


Involvement with Faerieworlds also gave birth to Arise Entertainment Agency, a boutique "one-stop-shop" agency geared towards foreign independent artists who desire to remain autonomous over their own careers and artistic trajectories, but still require services, such as: booking, tour coordination & management, artist management, marketing/PR, contracts administration & negotiation, distribution and more. The agency is based in the Netherlands and Sheena assists in a freelance capacity from the United States.


"When I decided to create my own small booking agency and wanted to have a connection with the USA, Sheena easily came to mind as someone for her reliability, integrity, work ethic, intelligence and total dedication as this combination of qualities is not easily found in our industry.
Sheena also has a way with clients from many backgrounds and establishing solid professional relationships."
