Attracting and retaining audiences at theatres, music venues and houses of worship requires operators to continually raise the bar on the quality and engagement of the experiences they create. This translates to more and more opportunity for pro AV as venues seek to use technology to raise their game.
The ISE Sound Experience is a favourite attraction for attendees.
Hall 8.0 plays host to 21 Demo Room experiences across the four days of the show. Ranging from 120sqm to 420sqm in size, these rooms present the latest in audio technology to attendees.
Alongside this, ISE's popular Outdoor Demo experience returns to the festival-like area between Halls 3 and 4. This unique stage enables attendees to enjoy multiple audio brands throughout the day in a relaxed outdoor environment.
Our Listening Suites bring premium residential audio brands to the ears of attendees. These eight spaces are located in CC2, close to Hall 2 and the East Access of Fira de Barcelona Gran Via.
Lighting and staging solutions are deployed across live events and in fixed installations. The two markets enjoy a mutually beneficial relationship.
Many manufacturers are able to make their R&D budgets go further by deploying their technologies in both markets. In addition, the events world’s shorter timescales mean that new technologies and solutions often get added to the inventory of rental houses for use in live events before they are specified by integrators for fixed installs.
Whether it’s concerts, music festivals, sporting events or product launches, visitors want to be wowed. As the venues and events sector continues to strengthen, audience expectations continue to rise unabated.
