The Cheapest AV Rental You’ll Regret
Helping You Justify a Real AV Budget by Failing Spectacularly.
Browse our Tier List of Tragedies™ and select the level of failure appropriate for your situation:
Tired of being ignored? Try Tier 3.
Need to get your boss fired? Tier 6 is for you.
Just want to watch it all burn? Go straight to Tier 7.
Our team actively encourages public, visual failure:
Audio cutting out? Film it.
Slides not showing? Screenshot it.
Awkward silence during the keynote? Record that sigh from the CEO.
We even provide a “Failure Scrapbook Kit™” with templates for your Post-Mortem Budget Request Deck:
“Here’s why we need real AV.”
“Timeline of technical collapse.”
“Quotes from visibly upset clients.”
Send the evidence upstairs. Watch the budget approvals roll in.
We even include:
A fake invoice from a “premium AV company” showing how much less you paid (and why it shows)
A formal apology letter template ready for HR/PR/external stakeholders
A “Never Again” Certificate signed by our founder (a former intern)
Success is built on the ashes of events like these.
At BudgetAV Disasters™, we don’t just wing it — we’ve spent 29 long, beautiful years studying how events fall apart. From dead-clicker panic to mid-speech power cuts, we’ve refined the art of collapse into plug-and-play failure plans designed to add maximum drama with minimal effort. Before you even realize a moment could go wrong, we’ve already inserted a loose HDMI port, a last-minute firmware update, or a speaker positioned perfectly to feed back during your CEO’s big moment. Our systems anticipate disaster like a sixth sense — ensuring you experience chaos that feels almost… fated. It’s not just sabotage. It’s structure.
We Specialize in Strategic Incompetence
While other vendors aim for excellence, we aim for just enough to make you nervous. Our approach is deliberately flawed, engineered to expose weak planning, poor budgeting, and wishful thinking — all while giving you someone else to blame. We’re not here to impress. We’re here to make an impression.
Failure You Can Plan Around
Our packages are not just low-budget — they’re low-expectation. We’ve templatized chaos so you can integrate it into your event timeline. Need a delay before the keynote? We’ll “accidentally” unplug the mixer. Want awkward silence before the product launch video? We’ve got a “tech issue” for that. It’s failure, on schedule.
29 Years of Studying What Not to Do
Over nearly three decades, we’ve observed the smallest cracks that turn into full-blown disasters. We now replicate these with eerie precision. A tangled cable here, a corrupt USB file there — little things that spiral into big things. Our expertise isn’t in technology. It’s in making technology look like it was never your fault.
Your Boss Will Remember Us (So They Remember You Need More Budget)
Let’s be honest: nobody notices AV until it goes wrong. We make sure they notice. Our service is a budgetary catalyst — the fire under the feet of decision-makers who’ve undervalued production support for years. After this event, your boss won’t just approve your next AV request. They’ll beg for it.
At BudgetAV Disasters™, we’re not here to fuss over video signals or audio levels. We’re here to turn technical failures into corporate alignment moments — because top leadership doesn’t want decibels, they want deliverables. And we speak their language.
At BudgetAV Disasters™, we’ve turned global economic instability into a customer service strategy. Thanks to the Trump trade war, we now have a built-in excuse for every glitch, delay, and catastrophic livestream failure — and our clients leave with bigger budgets every time.
At BudgetAV Disasters™, we’re not just looking for AV techs — we’re recruiting chaos coordinators, illusionists of incompetence, and fearless fall guys. If you’ve ever wanted to ruin a show on purpose and still be praised for it, this is your calling
