Columbus Air Show
When Event Organizers Need Large-Scale Event Infrastructure for High-Risk, High-Traffic Environments, They Turn to Us.
When the Columbus Air Show welcomed nearly 50,000 visitors to a fully active airfield, ACC Rentals was trusted to execute one of Central Ohio's most complex temporary event builds of the year. This wasn't just tent installation. It was a full-scale operational solution designed for precision, safety, and uninterrupted airport activity.
From engineering-grade Clearspan structures to expert ballasting, power distribution, crowd-control fencing, and logistical coordination, our team delivered a seamless foundation for this major public event, all while coordinating around live runway operations and multimillion-dollar aircraft.
Need large-scale event infrastructure for your next project?
Our team specializes in complex, high-stakes environments where precision and safety are non-negotiable.
Precision Planning. Expert Installation. Zero Disruption.
Hosting a major event on an active runway requires a partner who understands safety, logistics, timing, and compliance. Large public events need more than shelter. They need engineered infrastructure, specialized installation methods, and a partner capable of handling complex environments with zero room for error. Our team delivered all installation and teardown within three tightly timed days, while airport operations safely rerouted traffic through a secondary runway.
- Zero-Staking Airfield Requirements
Every structure was ballast-anchored with no exceptions. Airport-compliant anchoring with 100% ballasting ensured full compliance and structural integrity. - Exact Alignment Across 1,300+ Linear Feet
Long tent lines demanded engineering-level precision. Our team executed flawless layout and positioning across massive structure deployments spanning the entire site. - Work Completed Within Active Airport Operations
Fast install and teardown prevented operational delays. We delivered thousands of seating and furnishing assets, operational power solutions, and safety perimeter fencing installation on an accelerated timeline to keep operations on schedule. - Proximity to Aircraft Worth $10M-$100M+
Our team followed enhanced safety protocols to protect aircraft and personnel throughout the entire build and teardown process.
