Belgium / Greece - Belgian manufacturer Amelia NV, known worldwide for its ShowLED starcloth product, has provided a massive backdrop for this year's Eurovision Song Contest, which takes place this weekend at the Olympic Indoor Hall in Athens, Greece.

The starry sky in Athens is made up of 45 cloths of 3m by 12m, creating a total of around 1,600sq.m of LED starcloth, containing some 10,000 LEDs, connected by 12.5km of electrical wire.

This is the latest event to boost ShowLED's growing international reputation. Recent additions to the company's growing international distributor network include Gerriets (Germany & Austria), Azur Scénic (France) and Peroni (Italy). Other recent projects include Night of the Proms and some 1,000sq.m of starcloths for several TV shows at Dubai Television.

A full report on the Eurovision production will appear in the July-August issue of Lighting&Sound International magazine.
