Wide portals, reveal backdrops, lighting grids and LED structures planned around vehicle movement, photography and guest circulation.

The production brief determines the structure.

Wide portals, reveal backdrops, lighting grids and LED structures planned around vehicle movement, photography and guest circulation.

For automotive launches & displays, the first decision is not “how many truss pieces?” It is what the structure must achieve, what it supports, where it sits and which venue conditions shape the build.

What to measure

Record the stage and audience layout, screen and product dimensions, branding elevations, camera positions, venue ceiling, guest circulation and loading access.

Useful size references for this use case include 20 ft clear vehicle portal, 30 × 15 ft reveal wall, 8 × 6 m lighting grid, Custom display pavilion.

Who to coordinate

Align the organiser, brand or agency, venue, AV, content, scenic and truss scopes before artwork and equipment are final. This prevents a graphic, screen or reveal from conflicting with the physical frame.

The event brief should cover new-car reveals, dealer launches, motorcycle displays before equipment is reserved.

When not to use it

Truss is useful, but not automatic.

Consider a simpler alternative

A structure should not constrict vehicle turning, emergency routes or exhaust management, and indoor engine operation follows venue rules.
