Case Studies
Over the years our team has literally been involved in hundreds of large events. Some of those produced recently include the following.
The brief was to provide the total event management service incorporating contractor procurement and management, site planning and logistics, event management and health and safety management to celebrate Veterans’ Day in London.
The event in 2007 was held in the grounds of the Old Royal Naval College in Greenwich and featured a display arena, tri-service and affiliated agency exhibitors, simulators and army catering. Two large LED screens relayed a concert from within the Painted Hall featuring Engelbert Humperdinck, the Tiller Girls and Rolf Harris.
Westlife, Shane Ward, Mutya Buena and Chico were just some of the acts performing at the biggest party that Carlisle has ever had. We had just two months to organise this event which included two VIP hospitality marquees. The technical specification featured no less than five LED outdoor screens and the show finished with a huge fireworks display witnessed by the 15,000 who attended the concert.
We have been event managing this biennial event since 2001 seeing visitor numbers spiraling ever upwards! In June 2007, a full weekend of celebrations saw an estimated total of 350,000 visitors taking part in one of Europe's largest maritime festivals. Tall ships, air displays including the Red Arrows and the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight, multiple stages, funfairs, military village, pirate re-enactments and fireworks are just a few of the many attractions.
London and the South East won the right to host the prologue and first stage of one of the biggest sporting events in the world, the Tour de France. Our client, Transport for London, asked us to devise a show to promote the Tour de France and cycling in an entertaining format featuring music, games and competitions. We produced 80 shows around the UK and the Tour de France had a staggering 2 million visitors to London for Le Grand Depart!!!
Working for one of the top promoters in the UK, Marshall Arts, we were employed as health and safety consultants with the remit of writing the Event Safety Plan and liaising with the licensing authorities to ensure that all licensing conditions were adhered to for several dates in the stadium tours for George and Elton. All of the shows were phenomenally successful and free of major issues and incidents.
Working closely with the EMAP events team, we provide production management for the English Up Close Events. These are top secret acoustic gigs for an invited audience in unusual venues which so far have included churches, a town hall and a nightclub. Recent acts to perform at these shows have included Natasha Bedingfield, Sophie Ellis Bextor, Sugababes and Orson.
A no expense spared full on Christmas party extravaganza for 250 Eddie Stobart Motorsport guests. In a purpose built venue featuring state of the art audio visual equipment – multiple screens and intelligent lighting - the stage show was compered by surprise host Keith Chegwin and featured stars of ITV’s The X Factor, with Liberty X topping the bill.
