Located in the CBD of Adelaide, the venue's multi-purpose facilities include 14 meeting rooms, 11 halls and an outdoor performance space on the river front. It can accommodate up to 6,500 banquet guests and offers approximately 10,500sq.m of pillar-less floor space for conferences, exhibitions and special events of all types.
Robe was the preferred option for ACC's specifications and requirements once the green light was given for the purchase of new professional moving lights, says technical manager Jamie Masefield. "Robe first came to our attention as the brand with a strong industry credibility for robustness and reliability."
Masefield continues: "We needed large numbers of both profile and wash fixtures for business and logistical reasons. The Robe 575E AT series provided a comprehensive and cost-effective solution."
Masefield's decision making process also took the local product support into account. Robe's Australian distributor ULA's MD Cuono Biviano emphasises that strong local support and national dealer networks are a must when considering a large capital purchase. Authorised Robe dealer George Psorakis and a team from Osmond Electronics were chosen to supply the 48 Robe ColorWash 575E AT and 32 Robe ColorSpot 575E AT fixtures.
