Located in Bedfordshire, just over an hour outside of the capital, the studios boast a generous 12-acre site, complete with helipad access and runway for clients wishing to fly in.
Established in 2006, Live Effects design and produce special effects for events from Formula 1 to theatre productions to stadium concerts; from initial design ideas, venue approval and risk assessment, through to set-up, firing and de-rigging.
Managing director Alex Jarrett comments: "We have a constant commitment to creativity and safety. All events are managed continuously to ensure spectacular and unforgettable results"
As well as providing on-site management and pyrotechnics, Live Effects also stock an extensive range of indoor and outdoor effects; including confetti, glitter, streamers, flames, Co2, smoke and snow; The expansion came willingly and Jarrett is eager for the move: "2011 had so many highlights, and we're thrilled to be making the move to Millennium; You can't get that kind of space within the M25 and with some incredible names on their guest book we're definitely going to have some fun"
