A tunnel entrance that becomes the talk of the night. A pixel-mapped ceiling sequence that drops during the keynote reveal. A freestanding chandelier in a venue that bans ceiling rigging. That’s where this service lives. As Toronto’s custom event lighting specialists [/ →](/) , we design installations from scratch, engineered for your specific venue, fabricated to your specific vision, and run live by our team. ## Custom Light Tunnel and Installation Designs - **Light tunnel entrances:** aluminum arch trusses wrapped in fairy lights or pixel-mapped LEDs, creating immersive walkthrough experiences for arrivals - **Pixel-mapped LED arrays:** addressable LEDs programmed with cascading sequences, motion patterns, and music-synced animations - **Freestanding crystal chandeliers:** for restricted-rigging venues like Casa Loma and Liberty Grand - **Custom structures:** totem trusses, ground-supported arches, branded sculptural pieces - **Architectural accent lighting:** uplighting columns, washing facades, accenting venue architecture - **One-of-a-kind installations:** designed for a single event, fabricated, installed, struck ## Pre-Visualization Before You Commit DMX cues and pixel-mapping sequences are pre-programmed and pre-visualized so you see the show before install day. No surprises, no “we’ll figure it out on the night.” ## Rigging-Free Specialty A growing list of premium GTA venues (Casa Loma, Liberty Grand, heritage halls, museums) don’t allow ceiling rigging. We’ve designed freestanding alternatives for all of them: - **Crystal chandeliers** on freestanding poles - **Totem trusses** as visual focal points - **Ground-supported arches** that don’t touch the ceiling - **Modular drape and lighting structures** that meet load-bearing requirements You get the dramatic high-end look without putting the venue at risk. ## Booking Lead Time - **8–12 weeks** for fully bespoke fabrication (custom arches, branded structures, sculptural pieces) - **4–6 weeks** for tunnel entrances and pixel-mapped shows using existing inventory - **2–4 weeks** for freestanding chandelier and rigging-free options ## How to Start Send us your concept, venue, and event date. We respond within one business day with a discovery call, a sketch, and an initial quote range. From there, the design process is collaborative — we refine until it’s exactly what you pictured. ![Custom & Tunnel Lighting — process detail](/images/misc/lighting-designer-assembling-aluminum-arch-truss-f.webp) How It Works ## Our Process 01 ### Concept Conversation Tell us the moment you want to create — the entrance shot, the dance-floor reveal, the keynote walk-in. We sketch the look. 02 ### Engineering & Render We engineer the structure (aluminum arch, totem truss, ground support), spec the LEDs, and render a pre-visualization. 03 ### Fabrication & Pre-Program Custom structures are pre-fabricated and pixel-mapping is programmed before load-in so install runs to the minute. 04 ### Install, Run, Strike Crew installs the structure, runs the show live during the event, and strikes after — leaving the venue exactly as we found it.

Don't see yours? Reach out — we're happy to help. What exactly is a tunnel entrance? expand\_more An immersive walkthrough structure — aluminum arch trusses wrapped in fairy lights or pixel-mapped LEDs — that guests pass through on arrival. Signature look for high-end weddings and brand activations. Can you build something for a venue that bans ceiling rigging? expand\_more Yes. We use freestanding crystal chandeliers, totem trusses, and ground-supported structures designed exactly for restricted-rigging venues like Casa Loma and Liberty Grand. How is pixel mapping different from regular LED lighting? expand\_more Each individual LED is addressable — meaning we can program cascading sequences, motion patterns, and music-synced animations across the array. It's a different category from static washes. Can the design be entirely custom? expand\_more Yes. We design from concept: sketch, render, engineer, fabricate, install. Custom arches, sculptural chandeliers, branded structures, anything within the laws of physics and Ontario building codes. How early do we need to book a bespoke design? expand\_more 8 to 12 weeks for fully bespoke fabrication. Tunnel entrances using our existing inventory can go on shorter notice — typically 4 to 6 weeks.
