iLux Veranstaltungstechnik GmbH

What iLux Veranstaltungstechnik GmbH does

iLux Veranstaltungstechnik GmbH is a Stuttgart-region full-service event technology provider founded in 2007 and headquartered in Waiblingen, Baden-Württemberg. The company delivers integrated technical production for events of all sizes, combining lighting (Lichttechnik), professional audio (Tontechnik), media technology (Medientechnik), stage setup, and rigging services from a 3,300 sqm warehouse stocked with continuously refreshed equipment. A 28-person team — including project managers, certified event technology specialists, workshop, logistics and apprentice staff — handles planning, setup, execution and dismantle, with in-house static-calculation software used to plan safe rigging constructions.

The business operates a B2B, sales-led, project-based model targeting corporate clients, event agencies and organizers across six primary use cases: trade fairs and exhibitions, sports and motorsport events, concerts and music festivals, corporate conferences and conventions, cultural and public events, and digital/hybrid events. Pricing is custom-quoted per project; the company supplements full-service engagements with a DryHire equipment-only rental channel. Long-term technical partnerships anchor the book of business, including recurring roles at ADAC Supercross Stuttgart, Stuttgart German Masters, Stuttgarter Lichterfest, CSD Stuttgart and multi-city trade fairs for Wessels+Müller. The Lightlands sub-brand offers productized decorative LED light objects as a differentiated product line.

Commercially, iLUX extends beyond one-off event work through formal venue partnerships with GRM-Locations (GOLDBERG[WERK], HEPPACH80) and Exometa (Phoenixhalle im Römerkastell), and through wholly-owned subsidiary iLUX AV Solutions GmbH, which handles permanent fixed installations of audio, lighting and media technology in venues. Marketing is primarily direct (website, phone, email) with light social media presence on Instagram and LinkedIn. The company is privately held with no disclosed institutional investors, is led by Managing Director Heiko Blattert, and does not publicly disclose revenue.
