The challenge was to create a versatile design that could provide a calm but attractive feel to the room for the pre-show dinner and drinks, but then transform the space into an exclusive nightclub for the after show parties.
To achieve this, White Light's Dominic Yates used some of the latest technology from White Light's extensive lighting stock to create a design flexible enough to give the room a different feel for each concert, while dynamic enough to continue the excitement of the gig beyond the end of each show.
The design made use of the new Fusion672 LED panels, which allowed the creation of both dramatically changing lighting backdrops and corporate branding, with the 'Club Wembley' logo presented during the pre-show dinner.
White Light were on-site during concerts by AC/DC, Oasis, Take That, U2 and Coldplay. The company's work has more than satisfied Wembley's staff. "We have worked with White Light during our 2009 concert series and have found their approach creative and innovative," notes Marie Head, event services manager at Wembley Stadium. "The lighting designs they've produced have created exactly the right ambience for our hospitality package, especially for the party afterwards."
