Riggit’s Commitment to Safety

When Lady Gaga appeared to jump off the roof of the stadium at the 2017 Super Bowl performance, it required a complex system of hardware to make the illusion come to life. When Cirque du Soleil acrobats perform their routines high off the ground, it is a rigging system that allows the artists to create their gravity-defying movements safely.

While we may not see the suspended lights, screens, trusses, hoists, and safety lines that work together to bring magic, charm, and wonder to stage and arena performances, there is a team of dedicated experts working behind the scenes of every production who has thoughtfully and, most importantly, safely placed every piece of equipment to ensure the success of the production and the safety of the performers and the audience below.
