Our largest stage is Stage 03 at 16,000 sq ft — a full black cyc space with vehicle access and dock-high loading. Stage 11 is our most compact dedicated stage at 5,000 sq ft with a three-wall green cyc. We have 18 stages total ranging between those sizes.

G&E rentals, production supplies, and heavy machinery rentals (lifts, condors) are required in-house. Catering is no longer mandatory, though it remains available on site. We make exceptions on a per-project basis — contact us to discuss your specific needs.

We do not take deposits to hold dates. To secure a booking, the full balance must be paid upfront. This ensures our stages remain available for productions that are ready to commit.

We have 400 vehicle spaces on site. Parking is $12 per vehicle per day, $40 for trucks and trailers. Overnight parking is permitted at the same rate. All parking is on our private lot — no street parking required.
