We offer one-of-a-kind solutions to the many environments you will come across here in the Manhattan area for events, and provide weatherized towable generator rentals that will continue to function in varying conditions.

Contingency Planning and Technical Support
An on the spot power problem can ruin an event. IVS offer full redundancy with backup crews and emergency services on standby for the duration of your event.
