There were breathtaking pyrotechnics, on-stage tattoo art, lighthearted humor and bantering, ironic musings, and some very spirited sing-alongs involving a crowd of 80,000. Supporting the pulsating, upbeat music of this six-member Italian pop band, which takes its name from a Scottish beer, was a vibrant light and video show by Ombra Design that featured 120 CHAUVET Professional COLORado PXL Bar 16 motorized battens, imported by Zalight and serviced by Agora.Read More »Ombra Design Enhances Nuclear Tactical Penguins’ Dream Show With CHAUVET Professional and Zalight

Visitors cannot help but feel the freedom of the sea tug at their hearts when they encounter Het Scheepvaartmuseum Amsterdam, the National Maritime Museum of the Netherlands.

Nor is it strictly due to the majestic three-masted “Amsterdam” that is moored outside. No, in some ways, the transformative effect of this world-class museum is felt most keenly when one enters its spacious courtyard and gazes up at its towering glass roof, which features a mesmerizing design inspired by the compass rose and rhumb line that have, for centuries, guided all mariners on their uncertain journeys.Read More »Lichtpunt Enhances Nautical Mood of Het Scheepvaartmuseum with CHAUVET Professional
