Custom Scenic Fabrication & Stage Scenic Design
Your event stage is the focal point of your entire production. Centric Events provides expert scenic fabrication, experiential set design, and custom stage builds for corporate event production, product launches, and brand activations. With our in-house carpentry and CNC routing shop, we turn conceptual 3D renderings into flawless, structurally sound event realities.
Bespoke Scenic Fabrication & Experiential Sets
We don't just rent out pipe and drape; we build immersive, branded environments. From intricate theatrical backdrops for private concerts to massive, multi-tiered corporate stages for keynote presentations, our in-house fabrication team handles the carpentry, metalwork, high-end finishing, and engineering required to bring your vision to life safely.
A custom stage build instantly elevates the perceived value of your event. It transforms a standard hotel ballroom into a proprietary brand experience. Because we are also a full-service live event production company, our stage designs are not just visually stunning—they are highly functional. We seamlessly integrate with complex AV equipment, ensuring proper rigging points, wire management, and screen clearances are engineered into the scenic build from day one.

Where Technical Production Meets Scenic Fabrication
The biggest friction point in corporate event production often occurs between the AV team and the scenic builders. Traditional fabrication shops build beautiful structures, but they rarely account for the intense heat dissipation required by LED video walls, the specific load-bearing requirements of line-array audio, or the hidden channels needed to run hundreds of feet of DMX and power cable. When the AV team arrives to load in, they are forced to drill holes, modify the set on the fly, or run cables visibly across the stage.
Conversely, traditional AV companies lack the carpentry skills to build custom flats and sets, often outsourcing the work and passing a massive markup onto the client, resulting in a disconnected design process.
The Power of a Unified In-House Shop
Centric Events eliminates this disconnect entirely. Our scenic designers, master carpenters, and technical directors operate under the exact same roof. When we design a custom stage backdrop, our CAD engineers are simultaneously plotting the lighting throw distances and calculating the power draw for the embedded screens.
- Bezel-Less LED Integration: We build custom recesses into our stage flats that allow LED video panels to sit perfectly flush with the wood or fabric finish, creating a sleek, architectural look.
- Acoustic Transparency: We understand how materials interact with sound. We design custom scenic speaker scrims and fabric fascias that hide massive subwoofers and front-fill speakers without muffling the audio clarity.
- Integrated Stage Lighting: Instead of hanging raw fixtures on pipe, we build recessed lighting coves and light-boxes directly into the stage set, allowing for glowing architectural accents and clean lines.
- Engineered for Strike: A massive corporate stage might take two weeks to build in our shop, but we only have a 12-hour window to strike it at the venue. We engineer our custom sets with proprietary interlocking hardware, allowing for incredibly fast, safe tear-downs that save you thousands in venue labor fees.
Complete Custom Stage & Scenic Solutions
Every element is designed, milled, painted, and pre-assembled in our shop before it ever reaches your venue floor, guaranteeing a flawless fit.
Custom Carpentry & Set Construction
We utilize stage-grade lauan, MDF, and premium plywoods to construct high-end flats, hard panel walls, and precision staging. Our master carpenters build sets specifically engineered to withstand the rigors of live events and transportation.
LED Integrated Staging
Our shop specializes in designing scenic structures that perfectly house modular LED video walls. We engineer the necessary structural support and ventilation, ensuring a flush, bezel-less appearance.
Metal Fabrication & Rigging
Beyond wood, we provide expert metal fabrication. We build custom aluminum frames, weighted stage bases, and suspended truss structures engineered for maximum safety, precise load ratings, and sleek aesthetic appeal on stage.
Brand Activations & Event Props
Create Instagrammable moments. We produce oversized 3D letters, interactive photo ops, and experiential props utilizing high-density EPS foam, CNC-routed and expertly painted to match your exact Pantone brand guidelines.
3D CAD Design & Vectorworks
Before we cut a single piece of wood, our draftsmen provide photo-realistic 3D renderings and to-scale Vectorworks CAD floorplans. You can visualize the exact audience sightlines, stage flow, and lighting before approval.
Scenic Art, Painting & Finishing
The finish makes the set. Our scenic art team executes flawless textured finishes, faux-concrete, rusted metal illusions, high-gloss laminates, and edge-to-edge custom vinyl wrapping that looks spectacular on high-definition cameras.

Concept & CAD Design
We review your mood boards, venue specs, and run of show. Our team drafts detailed Vectorworks CAD blueprints and provides realistic 3D renderings to ensure perfect alignment with your brand vision.
Shop Fabrication
Once approved, our carpenters, welders, and CNC operators mill, construct, and paint your set pieces using premium, stage-grade materials right inside our dedicated fabrication warehouse.
Test Build & Pack
We never assemble a custom stage for the first time at your venue. We fully test-build the stage in our shop to guarantee perfect tolerances before custom-crating everything for safe transport.
Load-in & Strike
Our specialized scenic crew arrives on-site to handle the heavy lifting. The same team that built the set executes a perfect, safe assembly and swift post-event strike, returning the venue to its original state.
