ICF Next entrusted us with providing all audiovisual support for The Forum, The Fest, 6 workshops, the Press room, the production office, the VIP room and the reception area.
The Forum stage was built inside the beautiful Grand Narthex Hall of the museum, hosting panel discussions and keynotes throughout the week as well as the Opening Ceremony with speeches from President Ursula Von Der Leyen and vice-President Antonio Costa.
The Fest stage was located outside of the museum overlooking the beautiful Cinquantenaire park and was primarily used for an array of performances by artists from all corners of the European Union. 180 artists displayed their talent for over 4 days, from dance to theatre to music in all its forms.
We worked closely together with the client from the first site inspections on, we provided the necessary technical drawings and made sure that all areas and stages were fully equipped with adequate sound& light, multicamera recording, livestreaming, large LED-screens for proper visibility and silent disco headphones.
Our team guaranteed a smooth production and flawless technical control during the entire event, which contributed to the success of the event.
