Markets · Atlanta, GA

Event production company in Atlanta, built to execute.

When you book Deep South Productions in Atlanta, one company is accountable from the site survey to the last truck off the lot. We're a full-service event production company based in Sulphur, Louisiana. We own the audio, lighting, LED video, staging and mobile stage inventory. We run the trucks. We staff the crews.

Atlanta is one of the markets we work regularly.

Handoff problems

Most event problems are handoff problems.

The AV vendor points at the staging vendor. The staging vendor points at the venue. You're left standing in front of the room.

We remove the handoffs. We design the technical scope. We supply the gear from our own inventory. We crew it with our own people and move it on our own trucks. Then we run it on show day. One point of contact, one bill.

That covers Atlanta live event production at both ends of the scale. We build festival main stages and we build hotel ballroom AV. The scale changes; the standard doesn't.

Corporate events

Corporate events & brand activations

General sessions, galas, awards nights, conferences, grand openings and outdoor activations. We design audio for speech intelligibility. A keynote nobody can understand in row 20 is a failed event.

Tour packages

Concerts, festivals & tours

Line array and console packages, moving lights, LED walls, decking, barricade and the power to run them.

Our touring roster spans country, rock, hip-hop and R&B.

We carry tour packages with our own engineers and crew.

Site survey

Rooms that weren't built for shows

Ballrooms, lobbies, fields, parking lots that become venues for a weekend. We survey the site before we quote.

Power, rigging points, load-in path and ceiling height go into the scope. They are not discovered on setup day.

Our inventory

What we bring to an Atlanta job

Event production services in Atlanta, GA come out of the same shop in Sulphur that supplies every market we work. The inventory is ours. We maintain it in our own shop.

Audio

Professionally maintained line array and console inventory, plus wireless microphones and podiums. Our engineers treat a keynote as seriously as a band mix.

Lighting

Key light for presenters and panels, color and texture for gala rooms, full concert rigs when the evening turns into a show. Truss and ground support cover rooms with no rigging points.

LED video

Walls, projection, presentation switching, playback, camera and IMAG. We also handle content for the person who hands you a deck at 7:55am.

Staging

Decking, risers, ramps, ADA access, skirting, and mobile stages for outdoor events. Our mobile stages arrive, deploy and are show-ready the same day, including a Stageline SL320.

Crew

Audio and lighting engineers, video and LED techs, stagehands. A production manager stays on your show from the first walkthrough to load-out.

Rigging

Rigging is coordinated, not blanket in-house. Our crews self-perform limited, low-risk applications. For structural work, arena rigging and anything with elevated risk, we bring in qualified rigging specialists. We manage them inside the same plan. You still deal with one company.

Logistics

How we get a show to Atlanta & up on time

Our shop, warehouse and fleet are in Sulphur, Louisiana.

The gear doesn't sit in somebody else's queue. We run our own trucks and trailers. The people who loaded the truck unload it.

That changes the schedule.

We plan the load-in backward from your first session or your doors time. Doors open at seven whether or not the video wall is finished.

Redundancy goes into the plan.

When something fails at 4pm on show day, we have a spare in the warehouse and the crew to swap it. We don't promise nothing will fail. We promise to be ready when it does.

Generators, distribution and event cooling travel with us for sites without house power.

Our logistics and trucking operation handles the routing. You get one accountable chain from our dock to your load-in.

Sized to the room

Where your Atlanta event fits

We handle a 200-person awards dinner and a 20,000-person crowd. The mistake most production companies make is treating the small job as a shrunken version of the big one. We size the crew, the gear and the process to the room in front of us.

Typical Atlanta work includes:

Corporate general sessions and conferences

Concerts and multi-stage festivals

Brand activations and public celebrations

Sports and collegiate events

Convention center and ballroom production

Production companies, venues and promoters can also get gear without crew. We do dry-hire and supported packages. Equipment rental is business-to-business.

FAQ

Where will the gear and crew come from for an Atlanta event?

Gear comes from our own inventory in Sulphur, Louisiana, and rides on our own trucks. The crew is our own staff, not a list of vendors we've never worked with. If your spec calls for something outside our inventory, we'll tell you plainly and source it. The scope still comes from us.

How much does event production in Atlanta cost?

It depends on scope, scale, duration and travel. A single general session and a three-day outdoor festival aren't in the same conversation. Give us the date, venue, headcount and what you need. You'll get a written scope and a number rather than a guess.

How soon will I hear back?

Within one business day, usually sooner. If your event is inside two weeks, call 337.626.2235. The phone is faster than the form.

Can you handle arena-level rigging?

We own rigging equipment and coordinate the full rigging scope. For structural work and arena rigging, we bring in qualified specialists and manage them inside our plan. We say that up front because the load path matters more than who's holding the clipboard.

How far ahead should we book?

As early as you can, especially in festival season and for anything that needs a mobile stage. A large part of this business is solving problems on short notice, so call regardless of your date.

Can we rent equipment without hiring your crew?

Yes, for production companies, venues and promoters. Packages are usually quoted alongside services. We'll quote trucking with them if the gear needs to travel.

Send us the date,
the venue & the city

Call 337.626.2235, weekdays 8:00am to 5:00pm. Someone on our team is reachable 24/7 when you're on site and something changes.
