Entertainment rigging

Entertainment rigging involves installing and managing the supporting systems—such as wires, trusses, and hoists—that hold and move stage equipment, lighting, and scenery safely during events. Professionals assess the venue’s structure, calculate load capacities, and use specialized hardware to ensure everything is securely anchored. Rigging must meet safety standards and often requires precise calculations to prevent accidents. This work is essential for the smooth and safe operation of concerts, theatrical productions, and other live shows, enabling dynamic performances while safeguarding performers, crew, and audiences.
