Event Rigging

Chain hoists, truss systems, aircraft cable grids, and fly systems. Designed, installed, and operated by certified riggers.

Event Rigging

The infrastructurebehind the spectacle.

Everything suspended overhead at your event has a rigging system behind it. Chandeliers, floral canopies, truss grids, speaker arrays, lighting rigs, and aerial decor all depend on rigging that was designed correctly, installed safely, and operated by certified riggers. Event Pro brings the hardware, the certifications, and the experience to make what goes up stay up.

What We Do

Rigging systems forevery load and every venue.

Chain hoist motor rigging at a live event
Motor and Chain Hoist Rigging

Electric chain hoists for lifting and suspending truss, speaker arrays, lighting rigs, scenic elements, and production equipment. We calculate loads, set pick points, and operate motors live so your rig goes up clean and comes down the same way.

Chain Hoists Electric Motors Load Calculations Trim Height Control
Truss systems for live event production
Truss Systems

Ground-supported and motor-flown truss in multiple profiles for lighting grids, speaker hangs, video walls, and scenic structures. Our inventory includes 12-inch box truss in two configurations, 20.5-inch box truss, and Tyler GT pre-rig truss for fast, loaded installs.

Aircraft Cable and Steel Grid Systems

Steel cable grid systems for large-format ceiling installations, floral canopies, fabric treatments, and distributed hang points across wide venue spans. Aircraft cable grids distribute load efficiently and give decorators and scenic teams a clean working surface overhead.

Rope and Pulley Fly Systems

Custom rope and pulley fly systems for theatrical reveals, scenic drops, banner unfurls, and dynamic elements that need to move during a show. We design the system for your specific cue, rig it to the venue, and operate it live so the timing lands exactly as designed.

Chandelier and Fixture Suspension

Safe suspension of chandeliers, pendant fixtures, decorative lighting, and custom fabricated pieces at trim heights that work for the room. We coordinate with your lighting and decor teams, verify point loads, and set every hang to the specified trim height.

Rigging Design and Load Engineering

Pre-production rigging design including pick point layouts, load calculations, structural assessments, and coordination with venue engineers. We document the rig before load-in so everyone on site arrives with a clear picture of what's going where before the first motor leaves the truck.

Why It Matters

Rigging is the one placewhere nothing can go wrong.

Everything overhead at your event is someone's responsibility. The load calculations, the pick points, the hardware ratings, the motor controls. These aren't details you want sorted out on load-in day. We treat every rig as an engineering problem first, a production problem second.

Our riggers are certified, our hardware is rated and inspected, and every system we install has been designed with a clear understanding of what it's holding, what it's attached to, and what happens if any part of it needs to come down fast. That's the standard. Not a differentiator. Just what competent rigging looks like.

Designed before load-in
Pick point layouts, load calculations, and structural coordination are completed before the first motor leaves the truck. No decisions get made for the first time on a ladder.
Certified riggers on every show
Aerial work platform and lift operator certifications on staff. The people running your rig are qualified to do it, not just available to do it.
Rated hardware, every piece
Every shackle, clamp, sling, and motor in our inventory carries a working load limit that matches the job. Nothing in our rig is improvised or repurposed from something else.
Integrated with your full production
When rigging is part of the same crew as lighting, audio, and video, coordination happens before load-in, not between departments on show day.
