AV & Event Rentals · Elgin
The Audio Visual Company Elgin Event Planners Call First
Renting AV for an event in Elgin, IL usually means juggling a speaker company, a lighting vendor and someone for the projector. We do all of it under one roof. Our rental division grew out of two decades of running weddings, corporate events and private parties around Chicago, so every package is built the way a working DJ and production team would build it: professional loudspeakers and subwoofers, wireless microphones that do not drop out, a clean neutral-white booth, and lighting and effects that are programmed rather than left flashing on auto.
Elgin’s riverfront hosts casino and hotel events, cultural programs and large community celebrations, and the city sits at the edge of our standard delivery zone with no extra travel fee. Typical Elgin bookings include the Hemmens Cultural Center, riverfront hotel and casino event spaces, and banquet halls.
Every rental includes load in and load out plus unlimited planning support by phone and email. Tell us the date, venue and guest count for your Elgin event and we will send the full pricing guide straight to your inbox.

AV Rental FAQ
Questions About AV & Event Rentals in Elgin
What AV equipment can I rent in Elgin, IL?
Sound systems (speakers, subwoofers, wireless microphones), DJ controllers and booths, LED uplighting, intelligent dance floor lighting, projectors and screens, LED video walls, cold spark machines, dancing-on-a-cloud dry ice and handheld smoke cannons. If you need something not listed, ask — we source and operate it as part of our event production service.
Do you deliver to Elgin, IL?
Yes. Elgin is about 35 miles from downtown Chicago, well inside our 60-mile delivery zone, so delivery, setup and pickup are included in the package with no travel surcharge. We serve Kane County and the Fox Valley regularly.
Is a DJ included, or is this equipment only?
Rental packages are equipment and setup only, which is perfect if you have your own DJ, a band, a playlist or an MC. If you want Jamal Smallz behind the booth, ask about our DJ packages — the same gear comes with a Grammy-nominated DJ and MC.
Do you provide a technician on site?
Setup and sound check are always done by our crew. For events with presentations, multiple microphones, video content or effects, we recommend an on-site technician for the duration, which we quote with your package.
Is there a setup fee or hidden charge?
No. Load in, setup, sound check, load out and unlimited planning support by phone and email are built into every package. The only extras are the add-ons you choose — lighting, effects, projectors and so on — which are quoted up front.
How far in advance should I book?
Weekend dates from May through October and the December holiday season book first. Two to six weeks is comfortable for most Elgin events; for peak Saturdays or large productions, reach out as soon as you have a venue. Call (312) 890-9910 or use the form and we confirm availability the same day.
