Lighting grids, stage goalposts, PA support zones and outdoor production structures planned around show flow.

Performance & entertainment

The production brief determines the structure.

Lighting grids, stage goalposts, PA support zones and outdoor production structures planned around show flow.

For concerts & festivals, 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 performance width and depth, trim height, performer and backstage routes, audience sightlines, stage level and every lighting, video, audio or scenic position.

Useful size references for this use case include 6 m front lighting span, 8 × 6 m production grid, 10 × 8 m stage roof, Custom festival grid.

Who to coordinate

The production manager, stage, lighting, sound, video and scenic teams should share one plan and build sequence. Rehearsal access and show changes can affect when the structure must be ready.

The event brief should cover live-band stages, festival production, pa and lighting positions before equipment is reserved.

Why the quote moves

  • Overall width, height and grid depth
  • Truss model and support method
  • Equipment weights and load positions
  • Bases, towers, ballast and hoists
  • Venue access and floor protection
  • Transport, crew and rental duration
  • Outdoor assessment and documentation

When not to use it

Truss is useful, but not automatic.

Consider a simpler alternative

For a small acoustic performance with venue lighting and no supported production equipment, a large truss package may add cost and consume unnecessary floor space.
