HWC Events & Rental

Audiovisual Partner of Event Organisers

Lighting is essential for creating atmosphere during all kinds of events. It plays a big role in your audience’s experience. However, it also has an important functional role. Light ensures that people and objects are clearly visible, not only in a live setting, but also during events which are filmed or broadcasted. Our lighting department has a passionate and considered approach to ensure that your event is optimally lit.

Audio is so important when trying to convey a message to your audience. Clear and enjoyable sound ensures that your message gets across. There are many things to consider, including everything from the placement of the sound system to what type of microphone to choose. Thanks to our expertise in this field, we can make sure that any event has perfect audio.

Nowadays, video is just as important to an audience’s experience as the aforementioned lighting and audio aspects. Moreover, you can use images to get your ideas and concepts across even more strongly. One can make use of video technology at small or large scale events. This can include simply placing a TV or interactive touchscreen at a convention stand or a networking event, but can also be as complex as using multiple projectors, cameras and content integration during business conferences. Our video department is ready to find the perfect solution for whatever your needs may be.

IT and ICT are slowly gaining traction in the events industry. The integration of various disciplines, including audio, lighting and video, is only becoming more popular. As devices are increasingly able to exchange information business-wide, synergetic events are becoming possible. Information integration and communications technology play a huge role within the audiovisual services which we provide for events.

The field of events technology has become even broader with the addition of special effects. This added service helps significantly when one wants to create truly spectacular moments. An opening, a reveal, a closing event, a ceremonial moment – they can all become even more memorable with the addition of one or more of our range of special effects. These include drop cloths, confetti, smoke machines, wind machines or pyrotechnics. We are happy to help you create your ‘wow’ moment.

Every event is different, which is why it’s important to tailor certain aspects of each event. Our experience and skills are of course applied in practice, but we start planning each event from scratch. This includes stages. The dimensions, height and finish are all designed from scratch so that the stage has the right atmosphere as well as fulfilling all the practical requirements it needs to have. Would you like advice about the possibilities? Please contact one of our project managers.

An aspect of events which might not conjure up any grand images in your mind but which essential nonetheless is rigging. Rigging refers to the construction on which audiovisual materials are mounted or hung. Most events take place at event locations such as convention centres, hotel halls or other MICE locations. These are largely bare spaces which need to be dressed for the occasion. In order to set up all event technology the way it needs to be, we must first set up special constructions. For safety reasons, this needs to be done with the utmost care and respect for any and all regulations. Our rigging experts will create a detailed plan and blueprints for every event. These plans and blueprints will be offered- if necessary- to the event location to be approved. Would you like to know what truss and rigging can do for you? Please contact us and we will go through the possibilities with you.

A fantastic backdrop is the cherry on top of the cake, as far as events go. A décor which fits perfectly with your events theme really completes the picture. This allows you to use more than just audio, lighting and video to get your message across. By using the right decoration, your entire event will radiate the atmosphere you want to create. We have several options which will help you achieve this, in various price ranges and with various possibilities and unique effects. We like to work with specially designed panels. Because there are so many available designs, you will always be able to create a unique and dynamic atmosphere. What’s more, all of our décor is also zero waste. The panels can be used time and time again, which makes it much more environmentally friendly than single use alternatives. Do you want to know more about what we offer in terms of backdrops and decoration? Please contact us.

We’re happy to announce that we can also be your audiovisual partner for events which are either partially or entirely held online. We have a streaming department which, thanks to many years of experience, can provide you with outstanding service for live stream and hybrid events. Whether you want to add a small online component to your event or create an entire online experience with a personal platform, our experts can turn your wishes into a reality. Want to contact one of our streaming experts to discuss the possibilities? No problem! We’d be happy to hear from you.
