Support for your event is our priority. Our Southern California warehouse was sited to speed deliveries to top venues across Los Angeles — including the historic Auditorium and the 54,000 sq ft Expo Hall at Shrine Auditorium and Expo Hall, 665 West Jefferson Boulevard, University Park.
Sizes and capacities from the venue’s published figures and operator materials. Production notes are how Above the Line typically outfits each space.
The multi-use exhibition and event hall adjacent to the Auditorium. Open main floor with mezzanine overlook, flexible for trade shows, banquets, brand activations, and concerts. Direct connection to parking and load-in.
Full-width LED wall on the long axis or stage end, flown or ground-supported line arrays, mezzanine delay fills, and uplight in the arched ceiling. Power and rigging points support large builds.
Historic Moorish Revival theater. Orchestra and balcony seating, opera boxes, orchestra pit. Award shows, concerts, film, and large meetings.
Theater 6,300 · Stage holds ~1,200
House systems are strong; outside packages for IMAG, supplemental LED, follow-spot support, and broadcast feeds are common. CURV 500 or compact arrays for under-balcony or lobby overflow.
Open mezzanine overlooking the main floor. VIP viewing, breakouts, and concurrent programming while the floor runs a general session or trade show.
Part of the 54,000 sq ft total
LD Systems CURV 500 columns and small subs for clear speech without fighting the main floor system. Modest LED or projection for secondary content.
Outdoor event space for red-carpet arrivals, brand activations, and festival layouts. Can combine with Expo Hall and Auditorium for campus-scale events.
Standing up to ~8,000 (grounds)
Outdoor-rated LED, weather-covered consoles, and distributed PA. Plot load-in from the adjacent parking structure.
Entry vestibules, Royal Street areas, and support rooms used for pre-function, registration, and hospitality during large shows.
Flexible pre-function
Point-source PA, soft LED, and discrete lighting so traffic flow stays clear of production cable.

From compact speakers to full line-array systems. CURV 500 columns for Expo mezzanine and lobbies; flown or truss-hung arrays for the main Expo floor and Auditorium overflow.

IMAG and multi-camera packages for award-style shows and corporate general sessions. Robotic or jib support for the large Auditorium sightlines.
