Rigging & Truss

Rigging is the process of setting up different types of event equipment on a variety of event structures (trusses) either manually, by cranes, or hoists. Technicians use a variety of rigging equipment – cables, chains, ropes, clamps, straps etc. – to attach equipment to the truss. The truss bears the weight of massive speaker units, dozens of moving lights, hanging LED screens, staging sets, and anything else that is in the air during your event.

Our members are able to build custom truss and rigging solutions that best fit your expectations and venue, liaise with your event production team, the local venue staff and any suppliers to ensure that the rigging process is carried out according to the highest quality standards. They offer a complete range of services to deliver your individual projects, from start to finish: consultancy, project management, planning, design, installation, inspection, dismantling.

Just like in any other aspect of event technology, our Members are in partnership with the best truss and rigging equipment manufacturers – such as our Technology Partner and industry innovator Eurotruss - in the business to ensure that they are able to provide you with the safest and highest quality services.
