Our success as a company comes from our extensive project preparation, attention to detail, dedication, and fully trained and experienced staff. We believe in what we do and are 100% committed to continually raise the bar within our industry. We have been in the business for over 30 years and we strive at exceeding our client’s expectations by providing them with unsurpassed quality and creative structured solutions to help your company reach your ultimate potential. Upstaging has made a huge impact in both the lighting and trucking industry, but our capabilities far exceed these areas. From our technical rehearsal space and programming suite, to our lighting and testing room, storage space, mobile marketing, and production services, Upstaging is impacting companies around the would.

Our success is measured by your companies success and we work hard to exceed your expectations. Total Productions US from VH1 Rock Honors recognizes Upstaging,“Upstaging’s new 140,000 square foot facility played an important role in the success in the execution of this system. With a scope of project this large it was critical to be able to prep the complete system in it’s entirety. Having the space to properly prep and stage the system together helps ensure all the equipment makes it on the truck.” And Dave Maxwell (lighting designer and director for Eric Clapton) has recently shared his delight with Upstaging, “At the time, we wanted to switch vendors and had heard so many good things about Upstaging. We now have done a number of projects and tours together and have not looked back.” And Robb Jbison from Panic! At The Disco recently praised Upstaging, “As a young designer, I’ve befriended a lot of concert LDs, like Butch Allen and Abigail Rosen Holmes. They all say Upstaging rules, and I agree.”
