Coastal Country Jam
One of the biggest recent PCE events, the Coastal Country Jam required the construction of a massive stage in the middle of Huntington Beach, a true engineering feat. PCE provided all the staging, rigging, audio, and lighting for this massive show.

PCE lighting designers worked with PCE audio engineers to make sure all the artists looked and sounded their best. The result? Surf City got to see an amazing, unforgettable event where everything went smoothly.

The Coastal Country Jam featured some of the biggest names in country music, including Tim McGraw, Jake Owen (pictured), and Chase Rice, all of whom required unique lighting and sound considerations.
CHOC Gala
PCE maintains a long, successful partnership with CHOC (Children's Hospital of Orange County), which features an annual highlight: the CHOC Gala. The needs of this event grow and change on a yearly basis.
CHOC Gala
CHOC Gala attendees have grown to expect nothing but the best, forcing PCE to innovate with lighting, staging, video walls, and audio. Each event has to top those that came before it, and so far PCE has delivered the goods.

Every new CHOC Gala means providing audio and lighting for a different A-List musician, a challenge PCE always relishes. Past headliners include John Legend, Alicia Keys (pictured), and Kelly Clarkson.
All Day ASI
PCE pulled out all the stops at California State University Fullerton's recent All Day ASI event. We provided staging, rigging, audio, lighting, backline, and power for multiple dance groups, DJs, and musical acts.

See this stage? It's actually a stage trailer—a real life transformer that folds up into a trailer that a semi-truck can easily deploy/haul away. Stage trailers make for an easy setup/teardown process, while still accommodating pro lights, audio, etc.
OC Fair
The OC Fair is one of the biggest county fairs in the country. PCE did all kinds of work (video, lighting, staging, audio, rigging) across the grounds. A PCE video crew (pictured) shot footage of the musical acts, which was in turn displayed live on...

...this pair of video walls. This allowed crowds of thousands to enjoy the performances, not just those who managed to score great seats. During non-show times (pictured), the video walls displayed pertinent event information.

The OC Fair also features numerous smaller installations, including this side stage, a structure built and operated entirely by PCE. Big, small, or something in between, PCE can meet your staging needs.
