ACT Entertainment Takes Centre Stage At Live Production Summit 2026
ACT Entertainment is set to play a prominent role when the live events industry convenes for the Live Production Summit (LPS) at the Grand Hyatt Indian Wells Resort and Spa in Palm Springs.
Through immersive sessions, hands-on demonstrations and brand-led showcases, the company will help drive conversations on the future of touring, corporate events and experiential productions.
LPS offers a comprehensive programme featuring keynotes, panels, networking functions, and both general and specialist sessions, covering subjects from production technologies and networking to rigging and safety. ACT plans to be active across the event and will spotlight several of its leading live production brands, including Avid, Ayrton, Green Hippo, MA Lighting and PK Sound.
"The live production world is rapidly evolving, with hybrid events, immersive experiences and integrated workflows, and LPS is the perfect place to bring all these topics into one collaborative discussion," said Ben Saltzman, CEO, ACT Entertainment. "ACT's presence at LPS exemplifies our commitment to being at the forefront of this industry evolution. With lighting, sound, video, interconnects and infrastructure all available within our roster of brands, ACT is perfectly aligned to show production professionals how they can move from managing individual setups to complete, turnkey solutions. We look forward to the opportunities to connect with our colleagues in the industry and discuss the future of live events."
At LPS 2026, ACT will contribute to panel discussions on emerging technologies, live production workflows and integrated systems. The team will also take part in education and training sessions on AV networking, audio processing, rigging and control. In addition, the company will set up multifunctional touch-and-learn stations, enabling attendees to move seamlessly from lighting to media servers to audio systems.
On the audio front, ACT will feature Avid’s live sound ecosystem, including the VENUE S6L console and its seamless show capture capabilities. Demonstrations will show how Avid consoles, processing tools and networked audio solutions support everything from high-impact touring rigs to corporate environments, with an emphasis on speed, reliability and intuitive control. ACT will also highlight PK Sound’s scalable PA systems, focusing on Multi-Axis Robotics and the time and cost savings delivered by rapid deployment across arenas and experiential events.
For visuals, ACT will present solutions spanning video and lighting. This includes Green Hippo media servers and real-time visual engines, used to demonstrate how content can be mapped, manipulated and integrated with lighting, stage, video and AV systems for unified control across audio and lighting. The company will showcase MA Lighting's forward-thinking control systems, such as the industry-leading grandMA platform, showing how operators can handle complex lighting rigs, multi-zone venues and dynamic shows with simplicity and precision. ACT will also demonstrate Ayrton's high-end, intelligent lighting solutions for both aesthetic and narrative applications. From architectural design to touring rigs, attendees will see how Ayrton brings power and flexibility as a storytelling element.
