What ZL Production does
ZL Production s.r.o. is a Czech Republic-headquartered (Plzeň) full-service event production company operating five integrated divisions: ZL Production (concert, festival, and corporate event organization), ZL Technical (audio, lighting, video, and staging equipment rental), ZL Booking (exclusive artist representation), ZL Eventdesign (creative stage design and show programming), and ZL Promotion (brand activation). Founded in 2005 and employing 40+ permanent staff, the company serves music artists, festival organizers, and large Czech enterprise clients across the Czech Republic and Slovakia, with demonstrated international touring capability across 8 European countries via the MANOWAR 2023 tour.
The company's technical backbone is a owned premium equipment fleet that functions as both a service asset and a competitive differentiator: Adamson Energia E15/E12 line arrays with LAB GRUPPEN/Lake amplification and DANTE networking, Robe iForte (32+ units) and supporting Robe fixture ranges, 300 m² outdoor + 150 m² semi-outdoor LED walls plus a 600 m² high-resolution LED Frame, and ZL BRUTAL FORCE I/II proprietary media servers. Staging is delivered via HEAVY-DUTY/SUPER-BEAM trussing, NivTec flexibel podium (600 panels), and Chainmaster chain hoists with D8+ safety controls. ZL Production was among the first globally to deploy Adamson's VGt system (the first product in the new Vergence Group) for large concerts, and operates an in-house ZLFAMILY Show Design Studio for programming and content creation. Long-term exclusive booking relationships cover Kryštof, Dymytry, Tublatanka (since 2024), and Arakain.
Revenue mechanics are project-based and quoted per engagement, with direct sales motion targeting festival organizers, corporate clients (T-Mobile, Allianz, Česká spořitelna, Ostravar, Staropramen, Tesco, Pilous Packaging, Elfetex, Penta Investments), and artists. Distribution is direct, with no intermediaries or resellers, and anchored by preferred-supplier status at flagship Czech venues O2 Arena and Forum Karlín plus long-running festival partnerships (Rock for People, Majáles). Production scale is significant: Majáles 2025 reached 200,000+ visitors across five cities with 27 trucks and 500+ staff, and the company routinely handles sold-out O2 Arena events including Dymytry's 20th anniversary, Kryštof's Srdcebeat tour (8 sold-out stadium shows), and a 70,000+ Kryštof Strahov stadium concert. The company is privately held, no external investors or funding rounds are disclosed, and ownership sits with founder/CEO Jan Lippert; David Šteiniger serves as technical director.
