What does festival lighting hire include?

Design, delivery, installation, on-site operation if required, and packdown. We can light a single stage or the whole site — entries, avenues, chill-out zones, wayfinding and production lighting.

Which regions do you service?

Gold Coast, Byron Bay, Brisbane and the Northern Rivers are home turf. For larger festival contracts we travel further — ask when you enquire.

Is the gear weatherproof?

Yes — outdoor fixtures are IP64-rated and every item is electrically tested and tagged. Festival sites get dust, rain and wind, and we spec for all three.

Can you work with our stage and sound suppliers?

Absolutely. We sequence our bump-in around staging and audio, share power plans with your site electrician, and run DMX alongside whatever control the other suppliers bring.

How fast can we get a quote?

Within 24 hours of receiving your site map, dates and rough brief. Site visits before quoting are free within our core regions.

Festival lighting hire done end to end

One crew for the whole site — stage lighting, festoon avenues, ambient zones and wayfinding, all delivered, installed and packed down around your run sheet.

Whole-site design

Lighting the entire festival, not just the stage

A festival is a village that exists for a weekend, and every part of it needs light doing a different job. We design across the whole site: statement lighting at the entry gates, festoon runs down food and market avenues, ambient washes through chill-out zones, practical wayfinding to bars, toilets and exits, and full production lighting on stage. Because one crew handles all of it, the site reads as a single designed experience rather than a patchwork of hired kit. We've delivered lighting for events from boutique gatherings to activations at Splendour in the Grass, so the plan scales in either direction. Browse the full festival range to see how each layer fits together.

DMX control, real programming, festival-proof gear

Everything we run on a festival site is controlled properly. Stage and feature lighting runs on DMX with programmed looks for each act, ambient zones sit on separate universes so the vibe can shift as the night builds, and content-driven fixtures are driven through Resolume and TouchDesigner when the brief calls for visuals. The gear itself is built for the job — IP64-rated fixtures that shrug off dust and rain, every cable and unit tested and tagged, and distribution planned with your site electrician or our own power plan. After ten-plus years in AV and events we know festival sites are hostile environments; we spec for that from the first drawing. For projection and generative content, see our creative installations.

Logistics sorted

Delivery, install and packdown around your run sheet

Festival bump-in is a choreography problem, and lighting that turns up at the wrong moment blocks stages, staging trucks and site crews. We work to your production schedule: gear arrives in the window you give us, installs are sequenced so rigging never clashes with staging or sound, and packdown happens as fast as the licence requires. We service festival sites across the Gold Coast, Byron Bay, Brisbane and the Northern Rivers, so travel is short and site visits before the event are easy to arrange. Send your site map and run sheet through the contact page and you'll have a lighting plan and firm quote within 24 hours — or look over our event services for single-zone hires.
