Chicago Flyhouse

Haven’t heard of Chicago Flyhouse? If you’re standing in a major American sports arena, look up at the rigging in the rafters, the physical skeleton that supports the increasingly ambitious desires of touring concert acts. Chicago Flyhouse has installed the rigging systems at Moody Center, Climate Pledge Arena, Allegiant Stadium, Little Caesars Arena, U.S. Bank Stadium, Barclays Center, Paycom Center, Target Center and many more. For its work at Allegiant Stadium, Chicago Flyhouse put nearly 8 miles of motorized fabric curtains in the building. The company’s importance to the arena world is surging as a booming concert industry becomes an increasingly significant part of its business. — B.M.
