Event and venue technology for Düsseldorf, Cologne & North Rhine-Westphalia

Whether it’s a conference, product launch, trade fair or corporate event – we provide professional lighting, sound, video, rigging and trussing technology for events of any scale. With our own technical equipment and vehicle fleet, a well-coordinated team and a clear process structure, we ensure everything runs smoothly and delivers outstanding results – from the initial idea to the final signal. Throughout Germany and internationally.

We are also the preferred technical partner for event venues. We know the venues’ spaces, connections and procedures inside out; we provide permanent equipment for the venues and manage events on site. For organisers, this means shorter planning times, less set-up and a team that already knows the venue. → Find out more about our venue service

We have been an official service partner of Messe Düsseldorf for 40 years. This means that we provide the technical infrastructure for every major event in Düsseldorf. → Find out more about our trade fair expertise

If you’re looking for something special, we also create eye-catching interactive special formats – from bespoke exhibition stand construction to a perfectly coordinated drone show.

Venue Services

Whether it’s an event venue, conference centre, cultural venue or hotel with event spaces: we ensure your venues are technically equipped to host any type of event. We analyse your existing facilities, plan and install sound, lighting and video equipment, and, if required, manage day-to-day technical operations. This makes your venue more attractive to event organisers and agencies, without you having to set up your own technical department.

We have been an official service partner of Messe Düsseldorf for 40 years. Our team is on site, knows every hall and every connection, and supports events day in, day out. It is precisely this experience that we bring to your venue. → Find out more about our exhibition expertise

For permanently installed systems, we draw on our experience in AV integration. For long-term support, we utilise our Managed Service, which includes maintenance, monitoring and dedicated contact persons.

Planning & 3D Visualisation – See your venue before construction begins

We plan your technical setup to ensure it fits in with your spaces and your day-to-day operations. With 3D visualisations, CAD plans and sectional drawings, you can see in advance how the stage, lighting, projection screens and sound system will look in your venue. This provides confidence when making investment decisions and immediately gives you the material you need to market your spaces to event organisers.

360° visualisation: Showcasing spaces and venues before they are built

Whether it’s banquet or conference seating, a trade fair stand or a product launch: with 360° 3D visualisations, you and your clients can see how a space will look with a stage, lighting, projections and technical equipment before anything has been set up. Venue operators use the visualisations for property brochures and quotations; event organisers and agencies use them to coordinate with their clients; and we use them for technical planning.

We don’t just photograph your spaces. We recreate them in 3D and stage them. This creates views of set-ups that don’t even exist yet: the gala in the hall that is still set up as a conference room, or the LED wall that has yet to be installed.

These visualisations form part of our event technology and our venue service. For permanent installations, we utilise them in AV integration.
