Frequently Asked Questions

Why is professional trussing and rigging rental for festivals so important?
Professional trussing and rigging rental for festivals is crucial because it ensures the structural integrity of your stage. Rigging involves hanging heavy equipment above performers and crowds, which carries significant safety risks if done incorrectly. Our professional rental service includes certified equipment, load calculations, and expert installation, which collectively prevent equipment failure and accidents. By hiring professionals, you ensure that your production meets all safety standards, protecting your liability and providing a secure environment for everyone involved in your festival.
Do you perform load calculations for the trussing structures?
Yes, performing load calculations is a standard part of our process. We analyze the weight of every piece of equipment you plan to hang, including lighting fixtures, speakers, and screens, to ensure that the trussing system can safely support the load. We also consider the distribution of these points to ensure the structure remains balanced and stable. Our team uses industry-standard formulas and software to provide a safe and effective rigging design for every festival we work on.
Can you provide rigging for both indoor and outdoor festivals?
Absolutely. We are fully equipped to provide rigging solutions for both indoor and outdoor environments. For outdoor festivals, we take extra precautions to account for wind loads and ground stability, using ballast or anchors as needed to ensure the structure remains secure.

Regardless of the environment, we conduct a thorough site assessment to design a rigging solution that is safe and effective for your specific location.
