Rian Fernandez Education Fund
Donation protected
Rob Fernandez, event promoter and a key architect of the New York nightlife scene, died on July 10, 2015.
He was a primary figure in the city's entertainment culture for 25 years. Dubbed the "King of New York," Fernandez's inventive parties, keen eye for trends and talent, and generosity to stars, peers and upstarts alike made him a beloved figure throughout the global music industry. He was the music director of Pacha New York, the first North American outpost of the storied Ibiza nightclub. As a partner in RPM Presents, an event promotion company, he brought mega-festival Electric Daisy Carnival to New York and hosted events with artists like Skrillex, Avicii and Swedish House Mafia, often in iconic venues like Central Park, Radio City Music Hall and Barclays Center.
Rob was the loving father of his bright-eyed son Rian.
We know Rian's education was Rob's paramount concern. We have started this fund to provide for Rian's education in the absence of Rob. This fund is sanctioned by Rian's mom Viviana, as well as Rob's mom Sharon and his sisters Kim and Laurie. This fund will be properly handled by the trustees of Rob's estate.
Thank you for your love and support.
