Kenneth Feld
Chair of the Board of DirectorsKenneth, an entertainment entrepreneur, has been the creative and business force behind Feld Entertainment for more than 50 years. He joined the company in 1970 after his father, Irvin, founded it in 1967 with the acquisition of Ringling Bros and Barnum & Bailey Circus. Kenneth’s vision to bring Disney characters to families around the world led to the creation of Walt Disney World on Ice in 1981. His imagining of this live, family ice spectacular has been one of the company’s most significant achievements. It has established a successful relationship with The Walt Disney Company that has lasted for 40-plus years. Disney On Ice has toured in over 80 countries and performed for more than 340 million guests worldwide. Kenneth has also created successful partnerships with brands such as NBCU, MARVEL, Nickelodeon, and more.
In 2008, Kenneth again expanded the company by creating Feld Motor Sports. The motorsports division includes the premier off-road motorcycle racing of Monster Energy Supercross and the SuperMotocross World Championship. Monster Jam®, the most action-packed motorsports on four wheels, brings world-class drivers and the most recognizable trucks to families annually at over 350 live events.
Under his leadership, Feld Entertainment moved its corporate headquarters to Ellenton, Florida, in 2013 to house all productions under one roof. Feld Entertainment Studios is one of the largest single-occupant buildings in Florida, housing two full-sized rehearsal studios for stage and ice productions and the largest monster truck shop in the world.
Kenneth works alongside his three daughters, Juliette (CEO), Nicole (Executive Vice President), and Alana (Executive Vice President), to bring people together and uplift the human spirit.
