On Your Wavelength
Black Light is a leading provider of light, stage, sound and AV solutions. We come from a theatrical background and therefore have a passion for finding innovative and creative solutions to the most technical of challenges.
Our track record speaks for itself: We have been supplying products and services to schools, theatres, exhibitions, conferences, trade shows, heritage centres and private clients for over 25 years.
Why Choose Black Light?
Black Light's strengths are built on the expertise of our team of time-served, highly skilled product specifiers, technicians, electricians and project managers.
We're experts at what we do
We are the main dealers for all major manufacturers in the industry and have direct access to a comprehensive range of cutting-edge products. This means that we can recommend and supply the most appropriate products to meet your needs and your budget.

We're on your wavelength
At Black Light we pride ourselves on the fact that we are 'on your wavelength'.

We go that extra mile
The main thing that marks Black Light out from our competitors is our willingness to go the extra mile – whether that's dropping everything to answer a 'last minute' call from a company whose event is about to be jeopardised by a malfunctioning light or working with a client to develop a bespoke rigging system to fit into an historic theatre space. Conscientious, responsive and flexible: that's Black Light.
