Festival stage with light show – festival and tour production by photon

Events & Occasions · photon Event Technology

Festival and tour production – our home discipline

Festivals and tours are the core of photon: we equip stages, fly line arrays, programme light shows and provide crews who know how a festival day runs – from the village stage to productions for tens of thousands of visitors. Since 1995.

For promoters we take on the complete technical production: stage and rigging, PA matched to the site, lighting for every slot, stage management and changeover planning. For bands and productions we pack tour packages as dry hire: equipment in touring quality, case-ready, with spares in the truck.

Previsualisation, design execution and logistics are part of it – we have run productions from Halle Münsterland to the LANXESS arena.

Small stage & local open air
