Two things decide the quote more than anything else: how much power the venue can supply, and whether the rig needs a technician on site through the evening. Ask about access and get-out times as well, since many venues want everything cleared the same night, which adds crew hours to the bill.

Lighting hire companies in Australia supply and install the rig, then either leave it running on a preset or keep an operator on site. Most cover uplighting, dance floor effects, festoon and pin-spotting for tables, with larger firms adding moving heads, gobos and truss.
Power is the usual constraint. Uplighters run off standard sockets, but moving heads, hazers and truss often need a dedicated supply, and some venues cap the total load. Check whether rigging points already exist or whether the company brings its own stands, and confirm the smoke and fire policy before booking anything that uses a hazer.
Rates for a basic uplighting package in Australia start at $85 and rise to $1,450+ for full production with truss and an operator, with most bookings around $500. Crew time, travel distance and whether the rig stays in overnight are the main variables.
The average price for Lighting Hire available in Australia is $500 (AUD). Above you will also find a budget price and high end price. Contact the supplier you like for an accurate quote.

Lost Productions PDX
"Great service. David from Lost Productions was very responsive over the phone and knew enough to help me figure out exactly what we needed. The additional cost for setup assistance was well worth it as David took care of all the hardware and individually worked with my performers to make sure that they sounded perfect from anywhere in the venue. I will be using them again"
Barrett Sound & Lighting
"We had a birthday party for our son and one of his friends at our home in May. I had seen DJ Lachlan set up at another party last year and was really impressed with Lachlan’s professionalism. When it can to planning our party hiring DJ Lachlan was at the top of my list...and we were not disappointed! What amazing value for money! The equipment, lighting, smoke machine and music created a fantastic party atmosphere. The set up at the start and pack away at the end of the party by Lachlan and his team was so quick and efficient and all communications leading up to the party were followed up promptly. Thanks again, helping to make the party such a great night!"

Marrakech Beat Collective DJ Entertainment
"I was looking for a DJ for my birthday for quite some time but I was having trouble finding someone who had reasonable prices and caters to all music types. I stumbled across DJ Limeuri on instagram and sent him a message, Nathan responded quickly to my enquiry in a professional but friendly manor, he had the best rate I’ve come across and after discussing music to play, he made a mix of all my favourite songs, I was pleasantly surprised with his vast music knowledge. On the night of the party, anas came early, fully prepared to set up his equipment and when the party began, everyone was up dancing and anas made sure all my family and friends were having a good time, thankyou again dj limeuri "

From the very first interaction, they were professional, warm, and genuinely passionate about what they do. Their communication was outstanding.

Thank you, LIMEURI EVENTS, for making my dream wedding a reality. I highly recommend this amazing team to anyone looking for a dedicated, talented, and heart driven event company!
