What is weekend concert rigging?

Weekend concert rigging refers to the setup and breakdown of staging, lighting, audio, and other equipment specifically for concerts that take place over the weekend. Rigging technicians are responsible for ensuring all structures are safely installed and dismantled according to event requirements. This work often involves lifting heavy equipment, working at heights, and following strict safety protocols. Weekend concert riggers usually work flexible hours, often during nights and weekends, to accommodate event schedules.
