Sulphur, LA — 30.23° N / 93.37° W
Rigging & truss, done to the letter.
Every point starts with the building. Every build starts with a site survey. We rig festivals, tours, arenas and ballrooms across the US and into Canada — and one company is accountable from the site survey to the last truck off the lot.

Ground support and flown systems
inside venues and outside on sites, sized to the room and the weather.
Load-in and load-out crews
people who know the sequencing, not a mystery call on show day.
Site surveys before anything ships
we look at the room, the roof, the ground and the power before we quote.
How we staff a rig
Basic rigging we handle in-house. Anything beyond that — complex points, high-capacity systems, specialized structures — we staff from a long list of certified and insured riggers we've worked with for years. That's a deliberate choice, not a gap: it means the rig gets the right people for the load, whatever the load is.
What doesn't change either way: the scope, the survey, the sequencing and the accountability. One producer owns your job from the first site visit to the last truck off the lot. If a subcontracted ringer is on the points, that person works to our plan, on our schedule, and answers to us.
It matters on the days it matters. When the schedule slips, when the venue changes the floor plan, when something fails at 4pm on show day — someone is on site with the authority and the spares to fix it.
Our own fleet, our own trucks
We run our own trucking across the country. Rigging runs on sequencing — points before trim, trim before the lights fly — so the gear has to arrive in the order it gets built. Our fleet lets us plan that order instead of hoping a common carrier finds it.
We own our audio, lighting, LED video, staging and mobile stage inventory, so the truss and the motors arrive with the rest of the system they're carrying. Fewer vendors on the dock, fewer handoffs to fail, one number to call when something needs to move.
More than 30 years of load-ins. In 2022 the Parnelli Awards named us Regional Lighting Company of the Year — we mention it because the same standard carries through everything we hang, not just the lights.
Rigging & truss across every kind of event
Festivals
Outdoor sites bring weather, terrain and schedule pressure. Survey first, build to the site, load out on time. See Festival Production →.
Tours
Riders are specific. We work from them — stage plots, points, trim heights — and we carry the redundancy to answer for it. See Touring Production →.
Arenas and venues
Long load-ins, tight freight windows, house rigging to coordinate. We've loaded in to the Superdome, AT&T Stadium and TD Garden — among others. See Clients & Credits → for the ones we're able to name.
Corporate and institutional events
General sessions, brand activations, campuses and convention floors. Smaller scale, same accountability. See Event Production →.
How a rigging & truss job starts
1. You send the basics. A date and a city is enough to start the conversation. If you have a stage plot, a rider or a floor plan, send that too. 2. We survey the site. The room or the ground, the roof structure or the outdoor footprint, the power, the freight path, who else is on the job. 3. You get a written scope and a number. Not a range, not a guess. A scope you can hold us to and a price that matches it. 4. We build the crew and the truck schedule. We staff the rig for the load — in-house where it belongs, certified and insured riggers where the system demands it — and we plan the truck order before the first one rolls. 5. Show day. We execute, and we're on time. Doors open at seven whether or not anything went to plan.
Replies come from the producer who handles rigging and truss work — not a call center. Expect an answer within one business day, usually sooner.

Working alongside your other vendors
If a production company or another vendor is carrying the show, we can take the rigging & truss package alone — equipment only or equipment with crew. Rental enquiries come from production companies, venues and promoters, and we quote them with or without the crew attached. See Equipment Rental →.
And when another vendor's rigging has gone sideways on site, call rather than form. Short-notice problem-solving is a real part of what we do, and the phone is faster: 337.626.2235.
FAQ
What is rigging in event production?
It's the work of hanging and supporting equipment overhead — points, motors, cable and truss that carry audio, lighting and video above a stage or site. Ground support is the alternative: towers and structures that carry the load from the floor. Both are engineering first and staging second.
Who actually does the rigging on my show?
Our in-house team covers basic rigging. Anything beyond that — complex points, heavy loads, specialized structures — gets staffed from our list of certified and insured riggers. Either way, one of our producers owns the job and is on site for the load-in.
Do you provide just the rigging crew, or equipment too?
Both. We can supply crew only, equipment only, or a full package with our own trucks and people. Tell us which parts of the job you're covering and we'll scope the rest.
Can you work from a house rigging plot?
Yes. Send the plot with your stage plot and rider and we'll build the scope from what the venue allows. If the venue hasn't issued one yet, we flag it early — it changes sequencing, and sequencing changes the schedule.
How far in advance should I book rigging & truss?
As early as you know the date and the venue, because points and structures get scoped around the site survey. Short-notice work is a real part of what we do — if the event is inside two weeks or something has gone sideways with another vendor, call 337.626.2235 instead of using the form.
Do you rig outdoor events?
Yes. Outdoor sites get surveyed like any room — terrain, weather exposure, ground conditions and the load path all get looked at before anything ships. It's the same discipline in a parking lot as under a roof.
