When AV fails at your venue, it's your reputation that takes the hit, not the AV company's. Edwards changes that. We're your on-call technical partner: one number, real people, 60 years of NZ event experience behind every booking.
If you're looking for an AV partner to support your venue, you're in the right place. We've been building venue AV partnerships since 1965, from small function centres to multi-room hotel complexes, and our hire fleet means we can scale up for any event, any size.

We will work with your venue to create the solution that suits - including where required, dedicated account management and technical staff. Given our experience as the importers of the best sound, lighting and AV gear in Auckland or New Zealand, we can also work with your venue to ensure you have the latest and best equipment installed for your clients to use. And we can supplement that gear with our extensive array of hire equipment for larger events.
3 Partnership Models
Every venue is different. Here's how we typically work — find the one that sounds most like you, and we'll take it from there.
We install a professional AV system suited to your space and provide ongoing technical support as you need it. You run your own events and we make sure the gear works every time.
A dedicated Edwards account manager coordinates AV for each event: briefing, setup, and support so your team can focus on the client, not the cables.
An Edwards technician is based at your venue. We manage the entire AV operation: staffing, equipment, client quoting, and delivery so AV becomes a revenue stream, not a headache.
The Reality Check
Most venues don't think about AV until something goes wrong. By then, the damage is done.

Talk to Our Venue Team ?No Surprises
Three straightforward steps. No pressure, no pipeline, no 47 follow-up emails.
We learn about your venue, your events, and your current AV situation. No pressure, no pitch, just a genuine conversation.
We visit your venue or do a virtual walkthrough, and then design a partnership model around your actual needs, not a template.
We present our recommendations in writing. You decide if it's the right fit entirely on your timeline, with no obligation.
Most venue managers reach a decision within 2–3 weeks. Some take longer and that's completely fine!

That means whatever your clients need, from an intimate boardroom briefing to a 500-person gala, or a 20,000 person sporting event we have the people, the gear, and the experience to deliver it without your team having to lift a finger.
