Party and ambient lighting
Light shapes how a room feels before your first guest says a word. We give your party the right colour and warmth, from a relaxed welcome to a packed dance floor, without you ever having to worry about the technical side.
Light that sets the tone for your party
Guests often feel the mood of a party before they can put it into words, and light plays a bigger part in that than most people realise. A room that looks corporate by day turns, with the right lighting, into a place where people feel instantly at ease. We design that transformation for you, from the first warm glow at the entrance to a dance floor that invites everyone to stay.
HuurAV.nl provides party and ambient lighting for company parties, anniversaries, drinks receptions and private celebrations in Amsterdam and the surrounding area. We do not think in terms of individual fixtures, but in terms of the picture your guests will see: where attention falls, which corners are softly lit and where the energy is allowed to build.
Uplighting and colour accents
With uplighting you put a room in a whole new light. Colour accents against the walls, along columns or behind a bar add depth and turn a bare hall into something intimate. We choose colours that suit your theme or your brand, and keep them subtle enough to enhance the space without ever feeling overbearing.

An atmosphere that moves with the evening
A successful party has different phases, and the lighting should move with them. During the welcome and dinner we keep things calm and warm, so guests can see one another clearly and conversation comes easily. As soon as the music rises and the dance floor opens up, we shift to livelier colours and movement.
Lighting for the dance floor
The dance floor is the heart of many parties, and this is where the light gets to bring energy. We tune the moving, coloured light to the music and to the size of the floor, so it stays festive and never dazzles anyone. If you are working with your own music or a band, we align the lighting to it in a natural way. For the musical side, take a look at our drive-in show or the sound system.
From design to collection
With us you have a single point of contact for the whole process. We start with a conversation about your venue, your guests and the atmosphere you want. Based on that, we put together a proposal. On the day itself we handle the setup, aim and test every fixture and set the colours and scenes. Afterwards we collect everything again, so you leave your venue clean and hassle-free.
Our experience comes from hundreds of events through SpeakerVerhuur, with a Google rating of 5.0 from more than 130 reviews. You notice that routine in the calm way we work, even when the programme changes along the way.
Combining with sound and staging
Lighting comes into its own best in combination with the rest of your event. If you are planning a speech, a toast or a performance, we can have the light work together with staging and finishing and with on-site technical support, so the picture is right at every moment of the evening.
No technical knowledge required
You do not need to know how a fixture works or how to set colours. You tell us the atmosphere you are after and we translate that into a lighting plan that suits your space and your guests. If something in the programme changes, we adjust on the spot. And in case of urgency, we are always directly reachable.
Would you rather rent the equipment yourself and manage the lighting on your own? You can find everything in our webshop at speakerverhuur.nl.

Calm, measured light during the welcome and the meal, so guests can see one another clearly and conversation flows naturally.
Lighting for the dance floor
Moving, coloured light that brings energy the moment the party gets going, tuned to the music and the size of the floor.
Setup and collection
We position and aim everything on site, test the whole rig and take it all away again afterwards, so you have nothing to worry about.
Frequently asked questions
Can the lighting change as the evening progresses?
Yes. During the welcome and dinner we keep the light calm and warm, and once the party starts we switch to livelier colours and movement. We agree that transition with you in advance.
Can you match the colours to our theme or brand?
Absolutely. Tell us the colours or the mood you have in mind, and we will choose tones that fit and that come across well in your space.
Does ambient lighting also work in a bright room or during the day?
That depends on the room and the time of day. We look together at the available daylight and the walls, and choose accents that still have an effect in a brighter setting.
Do we need to arrange anything ourselves around the lighting?
No. You tell us what you want to achieve and we take care of the design, the setup, the settings and the collection. No technical knowledge required.
Do you provide party lighting outside Amsterdam as well?
Amsterdam is our starting point, but we work just as easily in Amstelveen, Diemen, Haarlem, Hoofddorp, Zaandam, Almere and further afield in the region.
