Hollywood Lights, Inc. is a leading design-based full-service company specializing in event lighting, electrical contracting, and sales in the Northwest. With a history spanning over 75 years, Hollywood Lights has evolved from its origins in searchlight advertising to become a critical player in the event production industry. Founded by an entrepreneur from Los Angeles, the company initially focused on searchlight advertising for grand openings but gradually expanded into convention and trade show electrical services, particularly following the opening of Portland's Memorial Coliseum in the 1960s.
Despite changes in market trends, such as the decline of searchlight advertising, Hollywood Lights has consistently adapted its approach, entering the theatrical lighting and television sectors in the 1960s and 1970s. The company experienced significant growth with the advent of disco, which spurred interest in lighting equipment at local entertainment venues. Over the years, it bolstered its capabilities by acquiring other companies and opening new offices, cementing its reputation as the largest independent lighting provider in the Pacific Northwest.
Hollywood Lights prides itself on exceptional customer service and a commitment to quality. Their team of highly-trained professionals is well-versed in electrical codes and requirements, ensuring the safety and success of every event. As part of their mission, they strive to exceed client expectations and offer superior equipment and services to businesses and individuals alike. Today, Hollywood Lights continues to be a trusted partner in creating memorable events, understanding that their work goes beyond mere lighting—it shapes experiences. Their dedication to customer satisfaction defines them as leaders in the industry, and they are well-prepared to handle jobs of all sizes and complexities.
