SIEL is a showcase for 'products' but it is also the coming together of an entire profession in all its business sectors - audio, lighting, video, special effects and stage equipment.
The event features 11 demonstration workshops, four classrooms for training sessions and nine Lighting Showrooms for checking out lighting effects. Confirmed exhibitors include Chromlech, Soundcraft, JBL, Sennheiser, Yamaha, Robert Juliat, Clay Paky and more.
For the second consecutive year, innovations will be rewarded with an 'Etoile du Siel' prize by a jury of experts.
A friendly, convivial gathering is promised, and the opportunity to meet and talk in a setting that is unanimously popular.
