Sound and lighting for events in Marseille
A speech nobody can hear at the back of the room or a dance floor lit like an office is enough to spoil an evening. We install and set up the sound and lighting for your events ourselves, with our own equipment and technicians.
In brief
ADJM Événementiel provides sound and lighting for corporate events in Marseille and Provence, with its own equipment and technicians. A wireless microphone costs €45 per day, a dance floor lighting pack (2 beam moving heads and 2 lighting totems) starts at €200 and a sound or lighting technician is charged at €35 per hour. The team delivers, installs, sets up and dismantles the equipment.
-
Correctly sized equipment
Number of speakers, subwoofer and power chosen for the room and the number of guests, not from a one-size-fits-all package.
-
Wireless mics for speeches
Handheld or headset microphones, tested with each speaker before guests arrive.
-
Technicians who stay
A technician or a light jockey can stay at the control desk all evening.
-
Back-up equipment
Spare microphones, cables and speakers are part of every load.
-
Set-up and get-out included
We arrive before the caterer and leave after the guests, in line with the venue’s timings.
What sound system do you need for a corporate event?
There are two uses that call for different equipment. Speech reinforcement (plenary, speeches, panel discussion, awards) must make every word intelligible, without feedback, right to the back row. Music sound (cocktails, dance party, concert) must deliver the bass and fill the space without overwhelming guests seated near the speakers.
Many seminar rooms have a system for speech, but nothing that will get 150 people dancing. Conversely, a badly set-up party sound system makes speeches painful. Before hiring anything, ask these questions:
- How many people, in what size of space, indoors or outdoors?
- How many speakers, and do they talk at the same time (panel) or one after another?
- Do you need to play sound from a video or a computer?
- Does the venue impose a volume limit or a sound level limiter?
- What time must the music stop?
What lighting do you need for a party or a conference?
Lighting has three jobs. It shows: the speaker must be lit from the front, or they disappear in the photos and the video. It creates atmosphere: a few LED lights washing the walls with colour are enough to turn a meeting room into a reception room. It brings energy: on the dance floor, moving heads and effects follow the rhythm of the music and make people want to dance.
Outdoors, think about nightfall: in June in Marseille, it is still light at 9pm, but a garden or terrace gets dark very quickly after that. Battery-powered lights let you illuminate trees, façades and paths without running cables.
How much does sound and lighting hire cost in Marseille?
Here are our daily hire prices, with equipment installed. They can be combined to suit your needs; we propose a configuration once we have seen the floor plan.
| Equipment or staff | Use | Net price |
|---|---|---|
| Wireless microphone | Speeches, panel discussions, awards | €45 |
| Powered speaker with stand | Speech or background music | from €60 |
| Subwoofer | Dance party, large room | €100 |
| Mood lighting pack | Colour wash for a reception room | from €50 |
| Dance floor lighting pack | 2 beam moving heads and 2 lighting totems | from €200 |
| Architectural lighting | Battery-powered LED light | €25 / light |
| Sound or lighting technician | Set-up, control desk, get-out | €35 / hour |
| Light jockey | Live lighting control | €50 / hour |
For a plenary, an awards ceremony or a concert, a live technician (€45 per hour) runs the control desk from start to finish. If you also book a DJ, the Ambiance and Prestige packages already include a sound system for a medium-sized room.
What our technical team does
We carry out a site visit or study the floor plan and photos of the venue, check the available power supply, then set up before the caterer arrives. During the event, a technician stays on call or at the control desk, depending on the package. To go further, see our stage and screens and equipment hire pages.

Your questions
How much does a wireless microphone cost for a speech?
At ADJM Événementiel, a wireless microphone can be hired for €45 per day. Add a speaker (from €60) if the room has no sound system. For several speakers, plan one microphone per person speaking at the same time.
Do you need a technician for the whole event?
For a cocktail reception with a single speech, setting up at installation is often enough. For a plenary, a panel discussion or an awards ceremony, a technician at the control desk (€35 per hour, €45 for live) prevents drop-outs and feedback.
Can you light a garden or a façade?
Yes, with battery-powered LED lights, at €25 per light. They are placed without cables and colour trees, walls and paths.
Is the equipment delivered and installed?
Yes. Our technicians deliver, install, set up and dismantle the equipment. Travel is included within Marseille, then charged at €1 per kilometre for the round trip.
