drp boasts one of Europe's largest production facilities, housing eight fully equipped edit and studio suits, two film and photography studios, digital innovation studio, event catering and much, much more, so its 35th celebration was sure to be spectacular.
As well as an afternoon event at West Midlands Safari & Leisure Park for over 900 invited guests, drp threw an evening dinner for its team members, with 220 people enjoying a gala event in the park's tree top area.
"We threw everything at it," says drp's PR manager Ryan Curtis. "We wanted it to be bigger than Glastonbury!"
The evening included a seven-minute spectacular showcase of its work, for which Stage Electrics supplied lighting fixtures including Martin MAC Quantum Profiles, Studio Due Dual 80s and Clay Paky Sharpys.
"drp is a long-standing client and they never fails to go above and beyond on every project they work on," says Stage Electrics Mark Burnett, who looks after the drp account. "Because of that, we were more than happy to help out by supplying lighting equipment for their 35th celebration."
"drp has gone on an epic journey over the past 35 year," says drp Group CEO and founder Dale Parmenter. "We consider everyone at drp to be part of our family and we are grateful for their help and support, so we wanted to include all our suppliers, who we consider to be part of the family, in our celebrations."
