Rigging Capabilities

We’ve worked on everything from tours and one off corporate events to festivals and massive sporting events. What have we learned in 25 years of doing this? That everything needs to be carefully planned and executed from beginning to end. Working with ARS means consolidating all of the rigging elements under one management umbrella.

Our in-house team of professionals can work with your vendors to manage the show and take the lead to collect all the information needed. We regularly produce comprehensive rigging plots with all the weights, airspace conflicts and connections resolved before we arrive on site.  We submit complete rigging plans for engineering review and have worked with most venues and their engineering firms across the country.

Once completed, we create an installation scheme including all the necessary rigging equipment and local labor needed for the job. We include all the control and cable paths, and look at sequence to ensure a smooth load in. Once the gear is sorted, we assign one of our fully-vetted, insured lead riggers and crew to get the job done.

Our rigging knowledge is extensive, and over the years we’ve learned how important it is for a crew to have the right chemistry. Personality conflicts can impact the success of a show. There’s a reason ARS has been honored with the Parelli Award’s “Rigging Company of the Year” 14 times in our company’s history. We’re good at what we do and we’re consistent in how we do it.
