Stageline

What Stageline does

Stageline Mobile Stage Inc. is a Quebec-based designer and manufacturer of mobile hydraulic stages, founded in 1987 and headquartered in L'Assomption with a production facility in Varennes and a US office in Albuquerque. The company engineers and builds the SL Series (compact-to-mid-size stages from the SL75 through the SL320), the SAM Series of large-format production stages (SAM450, SAM575, SAM750), LED screen trailers (ST100, SP100), peripherals (HyRig hydraulic LED screen support, HyTower delay tower, FOH platforms, portable bleachers), and marketing mobile units (Promobile, Mobile Space). Core technology centers on proprietary hydraulic mast roof-lifting systems, industry-leading 115 mph wind resistance, IBC/NBC-certified structural engineering, and modular covered-wing/crossover configurations.

Stageline monetizes through direct worldwide sales of hardware (quote-based, multi-year contract pricing), a North American rental network comprising 100+ owned units and joint venture partnerships (Onstage Systems, JMF Entertainment), and ancillary after-sales services including training, maintenance, parts, and a secondary market for used stages. The company serves production/sound-and-lighting firms, municipalities and parks departments, event producers and promoters, marketing agencies, professional sports teams, stadiums and amphitheatres, houses of worship, and hospitality venues. Its installed base supports over 30,000 events per year across 50+ countries.

The company is privately held, backed by institutional investors Roynat and the Fonds de solidarité FTQ (which holds a parent position), and is led by founder Yvan Miron. In January 2025 Stageline acquired Scène Éthique to consolidate its global mobile staging leadership, and has received government funding from Canada Economic Development for Quebec Regions. Equipment is engineered for a 25+ year operating life with 50–75% residual value after 10 years, supported by a 400,000 sqft LEED-certified production and testing footprint.

Broad incumbents

• NEP Group: Worldwide outsourced technical production partner supporting broadcast and live events with staging, video, and lighting. Adjacent competitor in the live event production services market where Stageline's customers also operate.
• TAIT Group: Global provider of staging, automation, and scenic solutions for live events, including the award-winning Stageline (TAIT)-adjacent mobile staging designs. Competes in the same large-format event staging space with a focus on automation and permanent installations.
• PRG (Production Resource Group): Global live event production services company offering lighting, video, audio, and staging solutions. Overlaps with Stageline's customer base (event producers, promoters) and competes on integrated production rentals.
• Wenger Corporation: Established US manufacturer of staging, audience seating, and music education equipment, with a much broader product portfolio across permanent and semi-permanent staging. Competes with Stageline in tiered/staging solutions for performing arts and venues but does not focus on mobile hydraulic stages.

Direct peers

• Stageco: Belgian-headquartered designer and supplier of mobile stage systems for concerts, festivals, and touring productions across Europe and globally. Stageco is Stageline's most direct international competitor in mobile stage engineering and rental.
• Mountain Productions: Pennsylvania-based staging company offering mobile stages, custom staging, roofing, and production services for the live events industry. Competes with Stageline in mobile stage rentals and custom event staging.
• All Access Staging & Productions: US-based provider of mobile staging, roofing structures, and production services for concerts, festivals, and corporate events. Directly competes with Stageline in the North American mobile stage rental market.

Others

• ROE Visual: Global LED display manufacturer serving concert touring, broadcast, and live events. Highly relevant as Stageline expands into LED screen support (HyRig, ST100, SP100), though not a direct stage competitor.
• GLP (German Light Products): Manufacturer of professional lighting and effects equipment for the live events industry. Adjacent ecosystem supplier that shares Stageline's customer base (production companies, rental houses) but does not compete in staging.

Emerging players

• agora solutions: European mobile stage and event infrastructure specialist. Comparable to Stageline in mobile stage offerings but smaller in scale and primarily regional in scope.
