Event lighting rental and design

Event lighting

A well-lit room reads as produced. A badly lit one reads as a hotel ballroom with a stage in it, and your audience cannot say why.

Event lighting rental and design

Elite provides event lighting rental for corporate events, conferences, concerts, and trade shows: moving fixtures, static fixtures and uplighting, consoles, and atmospherics, from a handful of fixtures in a breakout room to a full stage lighting rental for a general session. Designers and technicians come with it.

Lighting is the discipline that decides whether the room feels like something. It is also the one most likely to be treated as a line item and ordered by fixture count, which is how you end up with a technically lit stage that photographs badly and feels like nothing at all.

What we rent

Browse the full inventory below by category, or tell us the room and we will build the list for you.

Moving fixtures

Spots, beams, washes, and hybrids from Clay Paky, Ayrton, Elation, Chauvet, GLP, and Acme. The fixtures that do the work when a look has to change between segments.

Static fixtures

Pars, bars, blinders, strobes, pixel fixtures, and Leko profiles for key light, uplighting, and architectural detail. IP-rated options throughout for outdoor and exposed positions.

Consoles

grandMA3 in full, light, XT, and command wing configurations, plus High End Hedgehog and Hog 4 and Jands Stage CL. Whatever your designer already programs on, we probably have it.

Atmospherics

Hazers and foggers from MDG, UltraTec, Antari, and Froggy's, including low-lying CO2 fog. Beams do not read without haze, which is the part most people forget to budget for.

Acme Pulsar

Acme Pulsar

Lamp Type: LED

Power: True-1

Thru Power: Yes

IP Rated: No

Weight: 24.3 lbs

Harness the power of a collapsed star without the pesky side effect of creating a black hole. The Pulsar S2 is a strobe, blinder, and wash that delivers pulses of light so bright and precise, the local air traffic control might want a word. It’s an astronomically good way to make an impact.

Acme Tornado

Acme Tornado

Lamp Type: LED

Power: True-1

Thru Power: Yes

IP Rated: Yes

Weight: 66.2 lbs

We’re forecasting a 100% chance of a party with a high probability of intense fun. The Tornado whips up a chaotic vortex of multi-colored, spinning beams designed to blow the roof off your dance floor. No storm cellar is required, but dancing shoes are strongly advised.

Acme Neozone

Moving Fixture, Wash, Acme, LED

Lamp Type: LED

Power: True-1

Thru Power: Yes

IP Rated:No

Weight: 44.1 lbs

Project a massive hive of tight, aggressive beams that can zoom out to a wide, saturated wash with 19 powerful LEDs. It’s the fixture you use when one beam of light just isn’t enough, and you’d rather command an entire angry hornet’s nest of them instead.

Ayrton Diablo

Professional moving head spotlight with green beam for corporate event lighting

Lamp Type: LED

Power: True-1

Thru Power: Yes

IP Rated:No

Weight: 48.5 lbs

They say the devil is in the details, and this fixture is Exhibit A. The Diablo is a sinfully versatile profile with wickedly sharp gobos, hellishly fast color mixing, and framing shutters so precise it has to be black magic. It’s the go-to fixture for when “good enough” is a cardinal sin.

Chauvet COLORado PXL Bar 16

Chauvet COLORado PXL Bar 16

Lamp Type: LED

Power: True-1

Thru Power: Yes

IP Rated: Yes

Weight: 45.6 lbs

Get ready for a Rocky Mountain High-light. This pixel-mappable bar brings the vibrant hues of a mountain vista to your stage, with the added bonus of a motorized tilt to scan the peaks and valleys of your set. It’s also fully IP65 rated, because much like in Colorado, the weather forecast is often more of a suggestion than a guarantee.

Chauvet Color Strike M

Chauvet Color Strike M

Lamp Type: LED

Power: True-1

Thru Power: No

IP Rated: Yes

Weight: 26.2 lbs

For when the forecast calls for a 100% chance of face-melting strobes. This IP65-rated beast combines a ridiculously bright strobe and a vibrant color wash into one motorized fixture you can aim anywhere, rain or shine. It’s the only time you’ll actually want lightning to strike… repeatedly, and on cue.

Clay Paky Osram HRI 440W

Clay Paky Mythos 2 moving light fixture

Lamp Type: Osram HRI 440W

Power: Powercon

Thru Power: No

IP Rated: No

Weight: 70.54 lbs

Behold, the Chimera of lighting. The Mythos 2 is the legendary hybrid fixture that ends the ancient debate of “spot, beam, or wash?” by simply being all three. It’s a mythical beast that projects razor-sharp gobos one moment and a stage-drenching wash the next. Some say a light this versatile is just a myth; we have them in stock.

Clay Paky Scenius Unico

Moving Fixture Light Claypaky Scenius Unico

Lamp Type: Lok-it! 1400/IPS

Power:True-1 (208 ONLY)

Thru Power: No

IP Rated: No

Weight: 92.6 lbs

This fixture’s name is basically Italian for “the one genius,” and honestly, it’s not bragging. The Scenius Unico is the brilliant, multi-purpose tool that can be your spot, your beam, AND your wash without breaking a sweat. It’s the perfect choice for the designer who wants to create a masterpiece but only wants to load in one type of fixture. That’s not lazy, it’s genius.

Clay Paky Sharpy

Claypaky Sharpy Moving Professional Lighting Fixture

Lamp Type: Platinum 5R

Power: Powercon

Thru Power: No

IP Rated: No

Weight: 41.13 lbs

The fixture that redefined the word “sharp.” The Sharpy produces a pencil-thin beam of light so intense and focused, it can cut through a hazy arena, a massive video wall, and the lead singer’s ego all at the same time. It’s less of a light beam and more of a surgical instrument for visual excitement.

Clay Paky Sharpy Wash 330

Claypaky Sharpy Wash 330 Moving lighting fixture

Lamp Type: Platinum 16R

Power: Powercon

Thru Power: No

IP Rated: No

Weight: 41.11 lbs

Meet the Sharpy’s friendlier, more sociable sibling. While the original Sharpy was busy cutting dramatic, razor-thin holes in the darkness, the Sharpy Wash learned how to color them in. It’s a super-compact, lightning-fast wash light that can still zoom down to a punchy beam, proving that even in a family of rock stars, someone has to have a softer side.

Elation ACL 360i

Elation ACL 360i LED moving lighting fixture

Lamp Type: LED

Power: Powercon

Thru Power: Yes

IP Rated: No

Weight: 12 lbs

Most moving lights have limits. This one has a serious coffee addiction and no off-switch. The ACL 360i breaks all the rules with infinite pan and tilt rotation, allowing it to create insane, perpetually moving beam effects that other fixtures can only dream of. It’s the only crew member that never has to stop and ask for directions.

Elation Artiste Davinci

Elation Artiste DaVinci LED Moving Lighting Fixture

Lamp Type: LED

Power: True-1

Thru Power: Yes

IP Rated: No

Weight: 56 lbs

The Renaissance Man of your lighting rig. The Artiste Davinci is a true polymath, excelling as a precise spot, a brilliant wash, and an inventor of intricate gobo effects. With its sharp optics and full feature set, it’s the perfect instrument for creating your own masterpiece, no secret codes required.

Elation Artiste Mondrian

Elation Artiste Mondrian LED Professional Moving Light

Lamp Type: LED

Power: True-1

Thru Power: No

IP Rated: No

Weight: 104.7 lbs

This is the artist’s choice for moments that require more feeling than force. The Monet is a master of nuance, rendering breathtakingly accurate colors that make costumes and skin tones look alive. Use it when your goal isn’t just to light the stage, but to give it a soul.

Elation Artiste Monet

Elation Artiste Monet Moving Light Fixture

Lamp Type: LED

Power: True-1

Thru Power: No

IP Rated: No

Weight: 94 lbs

This is the artist’s choice for moments that require the lighting equivalent of a sledgehammer. The Mondrian is an absolute titan of a fixture, engineered to throw crisp, brilliant light from the back of an arena without breaking a sweat. It’s the one you use when your stage isn’t just a stage—it’s a landmark.

Elation Platinum Seven

Professional LED wash light creating dynamic blue and red stage lighting for corporate events

Lamp Type: LED

Power: True-1

Thru Power: Yes

IP Rated: No

Weight: 94 lbs

This is the wash light for the master chef of color theory. While other fixtures give you the primary food groups, the Platinum SEVEN provides the entire spice rack: Red, Green, Blue, Amber, White, a zesty Lime, and even UV for dessert. It’s the secret ingredient for a richer, more vibrant, and perfectly balanced visual feast.

Elation Proteus Rayzor 1960

Elation Proteus Rayzon 1960

Lamp Type: LED

Power: True-1

Thru Power: No

IP Rated: Yes

Weight: 73 lbs

Named for the shapeshifting sea-god of myth, the Proteus Rayzor is a true chameleon for your rig. It effortlessly morphs from a potent wash to a razor-sharp beam, all while remaining completely immune to the wrath of the actual weather gods (it’s IP65, after all). We haven’t confirmed if it can prophesize the future, but it will definitely make your show look brilliant.

Elation Rayzor 360Z

Elation Rayzor 360Z Wash moving Light

Lamp Type: LED

Power: True-1

Thru Power: Yes

IP Rated: No

Weight: 17 lbs

This is what happens when a peppy wash light drinks three espressos and a can of Red Bull. The Rayzor 360Z is a compact, zippy fixture with a versatile zoom and a serious case of perpetual motion, thanks to its infinite 360-degree spin. It’s the hyperactive toddler of the lighting world—you can’t take your eyes off it, and it never, ever stops.

Elation Smarty Hybrid

Elation Smarty Hybrid Beam Moving Lighting Fixture

Lamp Type: Platinum 200 Flex

Power: True-1

Thru Power: Yes

IP Rated: No

Weight: 49 lbs

Meet the valedictorian of your lighting rig. The Smarty Hybrid is the overachiever that got a perfect 4.0 in Beam, Spot, AND Wash modes. It’s the straight-A student that always has the right answer, whether you need razor-sharp aerials, detailed gobo work, or an even field of color. You’ll definitely want this brainiac on your team for the group project.

GLP Impression X4 Bar

GLP Impression X4 Bar

Lamp Type: Platinum 200 Flex

Power: Powercon

Thru Power: Yes

IP Rated: No

Weight: 32 lbs

The fixture that made the entire industry say, “Wait, the whole bar can MOVE?” The Impression X4 Bar is the original, iconic tilting batten that completely changed the game. Use it to create sweeping curtains of light, dynamic waves of color, or a razor-sharp wall of pixels. It didn’t just raise the bar for linear fixtures; it put it on a motor and made it dance.

GLP JDC1

Stage lighting equipment with LED panel for professional use.

Lamp Type: LED

Power: True-1

Thru Power: No

IP Rated: No

Weight: 24 lbs

Warning: May cause temporary blindness and/or flashbacks to the big bang. The JDC1 is less of a strobe and more of a weaponized supernova, featuring a central tube of pure white fury surrounded by two tilting plates of vibrant color. It’s the industry standard for when you don’t just want a light cue, you want to reset the audience’s circadian rhythm from 500 feet away.

Acme Pixel Line IP

Pixel Line IP static light fixture

IP Rated: Yes

Weight: 19lbs

For those who believe great design requires staying inside the lines—or in this case, creating them from scratch. This pixel bar is the ultimate tool for adding clean borders, sharp architectural outlines, and mesmerizing eye-candy to any surface, rain or shine. It’s so straight and reliable, it’s the only member of the crew with zero bad road stories.

Chauvet COLORdash Par Hex 7 IP
COLORdash Par Hex static light

IP Rated: Yes

Weight: 7.8 lbs

This is the light you grab when the event planner says, five minutes before guests arrive, “You know what would be great? If we could uplight those trees… in this sudden torrential downpour.” This rugged little par laughs at bad weather, delivering a perfect palette of colors (including UV!) wherever you need it. Go ahead, Mother Nature, we’re on the guest list.

Chauvet Ovation E-190 WW

Ovation E-190WW available for rent

IP Rated: No

Weight: 16.4 lbs

All the gorgeous, warm-white glow of a classic tungsten Leko, with none of the third-degree burns. The Ovation E-190WW gives you that perfect theatrical key light that actors love, without slowly cooking them like a Thanksgiving turkey. It’s the standing ovation your power bill has been waiting for.

Chauvet E'Pix IP

Blue automotive bumper on bright background.

IP Rated: Yes

Weight: 3.44 lbs

Your quest for the perfect pixel-mapping tool is over. The Epix Strip IP is the legendary gear you need to slay boring designs, casting powerful spells of color and motion that can withstand any element. Link them together to outline your stage, build massive video walls, and consider your rig officially leveled up.

Chauvet Strike 1

Chauvet Strike 1 Static Light fixture

IP Rated: No

Weight: 18.8 lbs

It has the soul of a classic rock-and-roll blinder, but with a 21st-century liver. The Strike 1 gives you that gorgeous, warm, red-shifting glow of old-school tungsten without the pesky habits of melting gels or tripping the generator. It’s all the vintage vibe with none of the vintage problems.

Elation DTW 350 IP

Elation DTW 350 static lighting fixture

IP Rated: Yes

Weight: 18 lbs

The DTW 350 IP packs that gorgeous, classic dim-to-warm tungsten glow into a punchy, weatherproof 2-cell blinder. It’s perfect for smaller stages or adding targeted hits of warm light right where you need them—especially in places where its wall-of-light big sister, the DTW 700 IP, would be total overkill.

Elation DTW 700 IP

Elation DTW 700 IP static lighting fixture

IP Rated: Yes

Weight: 28 lbs

The DTW 700 IP is a classic 4-cell powerhouse, designed to create an absolute wall of beautiful, dim-to-warm light that floods the entire audience. When she needs a little help with the details, her scrappy younger sister, the DTW 350 IP, is the perfect sidekick for the job.

Elation Proton Eclipse

Elation Proton Eclipse static lighting fixture

IP Rated: No

Weight: 34.6 lbs

This is the fixture you use to get a superhero’s attention from three states away. The Protron Eclypse is a strobe and wash light of frankly irresponsible brightness, designed for moments that require complete sensory overload. We tried to measure the output in lumens, but our engineers agreed the Richter scale was more appropriate.

Martin Atomic Dot VDO CLD

Martin Atomic Dot VDO CLD static lighting fixture

IP Rated: No

Weight: 17.2 lbs

This isn’t your childhood connect-the-dots puzzle. This is a high-yield, molecular-level design tool. Each Atomic Dot is a brilliant pixel of color, a potent strobe, and a blinder, all of which you can link together to build whatever geometric marvel you can dream up. It’s the closest a lighting designer can get to playing with sub-atomic particles, and the results are predictably explosive.

UltraTec Radiance

Radiance Hazer

Fluid Base: Water

Haze/Fog: Haze

Meet the ultimate wingman for your lighting rig. The Radiance is the master of creating the perfect atmosphere—a fine, even haze so subtle you’ll forget it’s there, right up until your beams slice through it like brilliant laser beams. It works silently and efficiently in the background to make every other fixture in the room look like a total rock star.

Antari HZ-300

Fog machine emitting mist in a dark setting.

Fluid Base: Oil

Haze/Fog: Haze

The official hazer of “I’ve got 99 problems but my haze ain’t one.” The Antari HZ-300 is the ultimate set-it-and-forget-it machine, creating a super-fine, long-lasting haze that sips fluid so slowly you’ll forget it exists. It’s the perfect choice for long events, or for the tech who prefers to spend their time near the coffee and donuts.

MDG The One

Industrial machine with metal frame and fan for cooling.

Fluid Base: Oil

Haze/Fog: Haze/Fog

By day, a sophisticated artist producing the subtle, world-class haze MDG is famous for. But when the beat drops, it becomes a fog-belching monster of epic proportions. “the ONE” is the dual-mode atmospheric machine that gives you both surgical precision and brute force in a single package. It’s the only superhero your production will ever need.

MDG Ice Fog Q

MDG Ice Fogger

Fluid Base: Water

 

Haze/Fog:

Low-Laying Fog

This is, quite literally, the coolest machine in our inventory. The Ice Fog Q uses liquid CO2 to generate a thick, frosty carpet of low-lying fog so chilly it won’t even think about rising into the air. It’s the go-to for adding a layer of mystery, drama, or just being effortlessly cool. (Seriously though, don’t touch the nozzle.)

MDG ATme

Fluid Base: Oil

Haze/Fog: Haze

For the lighting designer who refuses to compromise, and for the production manager who is tired of hearing about it. The MDG ATMe is the undisputed gold standard, producing the finest, driest, and most reliable haze on the planet, full stop. Renting it is the fastest way to end the “haze conversation” before it even begins.

Froggy's Poseidon Aqua 2

Fluid Base: Water

 

Haze/Fog:

Low-Laying Fog

Harness the power of the sea god without having to sacrifice a single roadie. The Poseidon uses advanced ultrasonic voodoo and regular tap water to create a thick, rolling ocean of low-lying fog. That means you get all the epic, stage-covering drama you want, without any of the last-minute, panicked calls to find a place that sells dry ice on a Sunday. It’s the most reliable deity in the business.

What your room actually needs

Lighting quotes are hard to compare because fixture counts do not tell you anything on their own. What matters is what each part of the rig is for. Almost every corporate room needs the same four jobs covered, and the fixture list follows from that rather than the other way round.

 

The job What it does What happens without it
Key light on people Makes faces read correctly to the eye and on camera Presenters look gray and flat in every photo and on the stream
Stage and set looks Color and movement that change between segments The stage looks identical at hour one and hour six
Room and uplighting Turns the walls and the space into part of the design A lit stage floating in a dark room that looks unfinished
Atmospherics Gives beams something to be visible in Expensive moving lights that produce no visible beams at all

 

If your event is being filmed or streamed, key light stops being optional and becomes the first line of the budget. Camera sensors are far less forgiving than eyes, and no amount of color elsewhere in the rig compensates for a presenter who is underlit.

For the full explanation of lighting design, fixture types, and how looks get built, read our ultimate guide to event lighting.

What comes with the rental

Design.

A lighting designer builds the plot and the looks against your run of show, not just a gear list.

Programming.

Cues built and stored before the room fills, so the console operator is running a show rather than improvising one.

Delivery, install, and focus.

Rigged, addressed, and focused before rehearsal.

Technicians through show hours.

An operator at the console for every hour the event is live.

Strike and load-out.

Out on the venue's schedule.

Renting forty fixtures from a company that drops them off gets you forty fixtures. Nobody has decided what they are pointed at, nothing is programmed, and the looks are being invented at 4pm by whoever is standing nearest the console. The gear on this page is the same gear anyone rents. What you are actually paying for is the person who knows what to do with it.
  • Design, programming, install, focus, and operation included
  • grandMA3 and Hog platforms, so your designer works on familiar consoles
  • Lighting delivered for Fortune 500 general sessions and national tours
Stage lighting with beams and colorful smoke during a concert.

Creative consultants who happen to own the gear

The catalog below is inventory, and inventory is not a differentiator. Most decent rental houses can find you a Sharpy.

What is harder to find is somebody who asks what the moment is supposed to feel like before asking how many fixtures you want. Our designers work on corporate general sessions and on national tours, which means the corporate work benefits from touring instincts about pace and impact, and the touring work benefits from corporate discipline about looking right on camera.
