DJ Alex Takes Off

2010

Our founder Alex Ott discovered his passion for sound and lighting technology at the age of 10. By the age of 15, he was already DJing at parties in his circle of friends. At 16, he was increasingly booked as a DJ. Things developed over time – he began to buy his own equipment and ended up renting it. In 2010, the company Soundline was registered and run on a part-time basis.

Independence as a Student

2012

Alex was still studying for his specialized diploma “Fachabitur” when he decided to pursue full-time self-employment with Soundline, which he ran from his parents' home. The first warehouse with an area of 200m2 was rented in Mainz-Gonsenheim.

The First Permanent Employee

2013

One year later, the first employee was hired at Soundline. It was a part-time specialist for event technology.

Management Expands

2014

Long-time friend Kevin Glück joins Soundline from a lower position as deputy manager and first full-time employee.

This year marked the first major event with 15,000 people at the public viewing of the FIFA World Cup.

The First Partnership & Relocation

2016

Pyradise Entertainment GmbH, the operating company of Pyramide Mainz, becomes the first permanent partnership between a venue provider and Soundline.

A new headquarter is needed – the company moves to its current location “Am Hemel 9” in Mainz-Gonsenheim with a storage area of 1,000 m2 plus outdoor space.

From Temporary Assistance to Apprenticeship

2017

Soundline becomes a provider of apprenticeships and trains its first apprentice, a specialist in event technology.

Soundline Continues to Grow

2019

The service portfolio, team and network develop rapidly: Within three years, the team grows from 2 to 15 employees. At the same time, strong partnerships are formed – including those with Halle 45 GmbH, the Alte Lokhalle Mainz and other regional venues.

A Wide Range of Training

2020

Soundline expanded its training program and now offers three new job profiles:

Specialist for event technology
Specialist for warehouse logistics
Media designer for image & sound

This is how we secure qualified young talent – practically oriented and versatile.

Covid in the Event Industry

2020-2021

While the pandemic has hit the event industry hard, we have also faced major challenges. But instead of burying our heads in the sand, we faced the crisis as an opportunity: We expanded our portfolio in response to the circumstances, particularly in the areas of streaming and hybrid events. At the same time, we were able to emerge from this crisis stronger thanks to strategic action – including the acquisition of two companies, partly together with their employees. We are particularly proud to have offered a trainee from a bankrupt company a new perspective.

Growth with a Vision

2022

2022 was a year of new beginnings and a strong direction: both the number of employees and revenue more than doubled compared to 2019. Major events again became the agenda, and Soundline seized the opportunity to make targeted investments – especially in qualified personnel. This paved the way for a consistent focus on the target groups of corporate events and major events.

Think Big! We Set the Stage for You.

2023

In 2023, the open-air portfolio was consistently expanded: With six in-house trailer stages from premium manufacturer Stagepartner – including an XXL stage measuring 13 × 10 meters – Soundline now is one of the leading service providers for mobile stage solutions in the Rhine-Main region.

Project management department with perspective

2024

Since 1 August 2024, we have also been training event management specialists and are thus investing specifically in the business people of tomorrow. The project management team led by our project manager and trainer Jan Wendling is supporting the first trainees on their way - and is thus ideally positioned for the future.

Technology offensive for the future

2025

Major investments characterise the start of the year: new LED walls, spotlights and a completely renewed truss system expand the material portfolio. The lighting consoles were completely converted to GrandMA3 with a six-figure investment. The fleet is supplemented by a customised 10×8 m trailer stage - an exclusive prototype from Stagepartner.
