Moving Head Lights

Moving head lights are used to light a large area, either with a beam, spot or wash effect. They are ideal for a variety of events, including; parties, discos, concerts, and for theatre and stage performance. They are perfect for permanent installation in theatres, clubs and bars, and are also ideal for mobile DJ use.

Moving head lights can be hung on T-bar lighting stands, lighting bridge or truss systems, using lighting clamps to hold them in place. Most moving heads come with a bracket which allows direct connection to a lighting bar with nuts and bolts or clamps. Alternatively they can be placed free standing, for instance set up on the floor at the front or back of a stage, or on a podium for DJ use.

Regular cleaning of your moving head light will help to prolong its life and will ensure maximum brightness is achieved. The lens can usually be removed for cleaning, and the housing can often be opened up to clean inside. The instructions provided with your moving head will contain details on the cleaning and maintenance of your unit.

We provide a range of moving head lights to suit all budgets and requirements. We offer large units for substantial venues, and compact units for smaller venues and mobile DJs, that can be easily transported and mounted. Our moving heads beam lights provide a high-energy focused ray of solid light, and are often used for aerial effects, for example in nightclubs. Our moving heads spot lights also produce a narrow beam of light in a cone-like shape, ideal for stage productions and DJs. While our moving heads wash effect lights light a larger surface area, making them ideal for weddings, parties and stage shows.

We would encourage the use of a smoke or haze machine with a moving head light, because it enhances the effect of the beams of light. The smoke effect means that you can see the actual beams of light, rather than just seeing their effect on surfaces such as walls. This ensures an impressive light show.

Gobos are a slim piece of plastic or metal material that cover the lens of your moving head light. They produce a certain pattern or shape effect, and can also break up the solid beam of light and produce several beams. Many of our beam and spot moving head lights include gobos, and feature a gobo wheel design, which makes it easy to switch between effects. You can also add your own custom made gobos.
