What Aria Technology Rentals does

Aria Technology Rentals, doing business as Aria AV Rentals, is a US-based event technology rental company founded circa 2005 and headquartered in Vernon Hills, Illinois. The company rents laptops, iPads, monitors, LED video walls, touchscreen kiosks, printers, gaming systems, VR headsets, and full AV production equipment to event organizers on short-term all-inclusive contracts covering delivery, configuration, on-site support, and pickup. Its core operating model is built around pre-configuration services — devices are imaged, MDM-enrolled, and end-to-end function-tested before shipment so that equipment powers on and works upon arrival at venue.

The company operates two local hub warehouses in Las Vegas and Chicago, which together serve the two largest trade show markets in North America (LVCC, Mandalay Bay, Venetian Expo, McCormick Place, Navy Pier) with same-day delivery and venue-familiar technicians. Beyond its hub markets, Aria delivers nationwide to more than 40 US cities and supports 300+ device single-event orders without conflict, drawing on a 1,000+ device inventory refreshed annually to current-generation hardware. Service breadth is amplified through integrations with registration platforms (Cvent, Eventbrite, RegOnline, A2Z Events, Map Your Show, CompuSystems), tournament software (Battlefy, FACEIT, Toornament, ESL Play), wireless presentation systems (Barco ClickShare, Mersive Solstice), and cellular carriers (Verizon, AT&T).

Aria's go-to-market is enterprise field sales with a direct-quote motion (phone and website), supported by SEO-optimized location landing pages, an active social presence across LinkedIn, YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, X, and Pinterest, and a content-marketing blog. Customers include Fortune 500 companies, national trade show producers, government agencies, and independent event planners, served across primary use cases in Trade Shows & Exhibitions and Conferences & Corporate Events, with secondary exposure to Gaming & Esports and Event Registration services. The company is privately held with no disclosed institutional ownership or funding rounds, and operates with a 100% Best Price Guarantee and 24/7 technical support as core commercial commitments.
