Benelux - Marco Borsato, the "darling of millions of fans of Dutch pop music with over 5.5 million album and DVD sales, is renowned for innovative shows that push existing boundaries". His current show, Wit Licht (White Light), which opened in Arnhem, The Netherlands in October last year and concluded in Antwerp, Belgium at the end of March again didn't disappoint. A three-dimensional light and video show that wraps the stage and downstage 'road' in innovative LED technologies creates an intense visual experience that enhances Borsato's energetic performances.

Sharing the stage with Borsato are some innovative LED technologies developed by Element Labs and supplied and supported by XL Video. Making its debut is the Helix P1 pixel string, which dominates the design of the 'road', which forms a video carpet that takes Borsato to the midst of his fans, and is backed by three rings made of the Helix P1 pixel strings. In total, the design features 4,884 Helix P1 pixel strings with a total of over 150,000 individual pixels.

Additionally, the stage also features a large Stealth video screen mounted between the first and second Helix 'rings' that form the backdrop to the 'road'.

Martijn Meeuwis of XL Video Netherlands says: "When our team, under the guidance of Bart Clement began to design the set, we wanted to develop a design that reflects the artist's dynamism, facilitates his personal way of performing, and that would have a high 'wow' factor to keep his fans - who are used to breathtaking designs and shows from Borsato, happy. We then approached Element Labs with the concept drawings as we knew they produce the Helix product family, a whole line of flexible, bendable LED products that could possibly suit our needs."
