Engineered Experiences. Integrated Perfection.
We design, build, program, and support mission-critical show control systems for the world's most demanding entertainment venues — from theme parks and cruise ships to stadiums and immersive experiences.
The Company
Who We Are
Show Systems International (SSI) is a full-service entertainment systems engineering and integration company. We design, build, program, and support the mission-critical systems behind world-class shows and attractions — audio, lighting, video, show control, PLC automation, special effects, HMI/SCADA, and show networking.
From first concept through opening night and every night after, SSI carries single-source responsibility for the entire show system. One team, one point of accountability, engineered to perform flawlessly — show after show, year after year.
