Sound, lighting and special effects · Puglia, Italy

What the crowd remembers.

We design and run flame, light and sound. Our own special effects department and a 2,000 m² warehouse in Puglia, for events across Italy.

Weddings and private events

Masserie, courtyards, beaches, runway shows, launches

Light where the cables don't reach.

Battery LED bars, BatBats and uplighters: a masseria, a courtyard or a beach gets its light with no cable on the ground, and the fixtures move as the evening moves, from the ceremony to the cake.

Sound and consoles sized for the room, from the speeches to the DJ set, with battery speakers where there is no power. Special effects scaled to the room, run by the same department that works the big stages.

We work with wedding planners across Italy, and abroad on request, destination weddings included.

From the lighting department

Battery LED bars, light-up signs and uplighters: the same department lights the runway of a fashion show and the cars at a launch in a town square, with no cable on the ground.

Special effects

Festival-stage effects, in a masseria too.

Flames, spark fountains, CO2, haze, low fog and confetti. The effect is scaled to the space: a flame burst in a town square is not a flame burst in a courtyard.

How we work

An effect fires on the show's timing, not whenever.

  1. 01

    Before

    We go through the stage and the running order: where the machines go, how much room each effect needs, which moments are worth marking.

  2. 02

    In prep

    Rigging, cabling and a full test in an empty room. Distances, materials and safety procedures are settled here, not while people are dancing.

  3. 03

    On the night

    Every burst is a cue, agreed beforehand and fired live. One of our technicians stays at the desk all night: the same one who rigged it.

Sound, lighting, LED walls and show control. From a town square to a club, with the logistics to get it all there.

Clubs, beach clubs, seasons

From opening night to the end of summer.

Sound and lighting rigged where people dance, a booth ready for the guest DJs who pass through, and the season followed through to September.

Frequently asked

The questions we get every time.

What exactly do you do?

We are an event production company with four departments: special effects, battery-powered lighting and gear, sound and consoles, logistics and production. We follow the event from the site visit to the technical design, from the rig to running the show on the night, through to the de-rig.

Where do you work?

Our warehouse is in Monteroni di Lecce, in Puglia, and we work across Italy, and abroad on request. The equipment is our own: whatever the job needs leaves from our 2,000 m² warehouse.

Do you do special effects for weddings too?

Yes, with no particular limits. Flames, spark fountains, CO2 jets, haze, low fog and confetti get scaled to the room and to the moment, from the couple's entrance to the first dance to the cake. The equipment is ours and the person who fires it is the person who rigged it: the crew holds fire-safety certification.

What is battery-powered gear, and when do you need it?

It runs on its own batteries, with no power cable: not only lighting, meaning LED bars, BatBats and uplighters, but powered speakers too. First of all it is for places the mains doesn't reach, like beaches, open country, clifftops and courtyards with no supply; then for places where cables can't be run or simply shouldn't be seen, like masserie, cloisters and gardens. It also covers the moments away from the main room, an outdoor ceremony or the drinks reception, and it can be moved once the event has started, when the scene changes.

Do you work with wedding planners?

Yes, it is how we work on most weddings. We provide the technical design, the lighting plan and a quote broken down by department, so the technical line of the budget is readable and easy to compare.

Is there anything you don't do?

Two things, better said upfront. We don't build stages: we work on them, but the structure is someone else's job. And we don't hire equipment out without our technicians: whoever rigs it stays to run it.

How much does a set-up for my event cost?

It depends on the venue, the expected audience and which departments are involved: a set-up for a room of a hundred people and one for a town square have nothing in common. The quote follows the site visit, or the details you send us, and it is broken down by department.

Do you also cover concerts, open-air events and venues?

Yes. Sound, lighting, LED walls and show control, with the logistics to get it all there. We don't build the stage: we work on it. With clubs and beach clubs it is often a season deal: the system goes in on opening night and we stay with it until September, with the extra nights that come up through the summer.

How do we get in touch for a quote?

Through the form on this site, on WhatsApp, by phone on +39 327 897 9011, or by email at info@fonicaeventi.it. We need the date, the place, how many people are expected and what kind of event it is: those four things are enough to start.
