Austage Events 20th Anniversary

A night of nights; celebrating 20 years of creating world class events and the collaboration announcement with the newly refurbished Seymour Centre Theatre and Performance Space; as their preferred in-house supplier for all things audio visual and creative technical staging. We showcased our then full range of technologies from blended projection surfaces, to interactive stage and performance lightning.

Founder and Managing Director, Joe De Abreu said he was excited about the partnership and welcomed the opportunity to deliver the full breadth of our latest technology and how it can enhance event staging solutions for the Seymour Centre’s theatre productions and corporate events.

“Twenty years ago Austage Events started as a small family AV business and I am proud to say the business now employs a team of 46 highly skilled professionals across Sydney, Melbourne and Perth, and client feedback clearly indicates that we have a great reputation for delivering world class events. Austage Events can offer innovative event and technical solutions that will assist event planners to look at unique spaces and think outside the square,” said Joe De Abreu.

The Seymour Centre also holds special meaning for Joe because it was where he, as Head Technician and Colleen, his wife, a well-known and pioneering female lighting technician and board operator, spent many fulfilling years working together. Their sons, Jayson, Shaun and Daniel when old enough, would often spend many hours exploring back stage and becoming familiar with the intricate workings of theatre production. Joe and Colleen went on to co-found the company, we now know as Austage Events.
