Chauvet fixtures busy at Glastonbury 2023

At this year’s edition of the Glastonbury Festival, fixtures from Chauvet Professional were used for seventeen of the festival’s stages. Included in the group were main attractions like the Pyramid, Greenpeace, Flying Bus and new Levels stages, as well as more specialised attractions like the Avalon Stage, nightclub-like Salon Carousel, The Hive Stage, Outside Circus Stage, and the San Remo Stage.

At the Pyramid Stage, John Luke Roles used thirty Color Strike M motorized strobes/blinders, supplied by Solotech, UK Group, in his floor package for Lizzo’s performance. A collection of fourteen Color Strike Ms lined the base of the central stage riser, which had a sliding backdrop, while sixteen other units lined stage left and right risers. The fixtures strobed to the beat of the music and connected directly to the almost 100.000 in the crowd. For some songs, such as “Truth Hurts”, the LD used the unit’s pixel face to create ambient colour tones on stage. The Color Strike M was also an integral part of the kits on the new Levels Stage (supplied by SR Production Services), West Holts Stage (DPL Production Lighting Ltd.), the Lonely Heart Club Stage (Fineline Lighting), and the Sensation Seekers Stage (Enlightened).

Chauvet Professional’s impact on the festival wasn’t limited to the Color Strike M. The pop music at the Avalon stage was reflected by a production design that relied on the Maverick MK2 Wash, Rogue R3 Spot, Colorado Panel Q40 and Ovation E-910FC supplied by Wave Co. Productions; while at The Levels Stage, SR Production Services used Maverick Storm 4 Profiles hired in from IPS, Strike Array 2, Rogue Outcast 1 BeamWash and Rogue Outcast 1L Beam.

The Rogue Outcast 1L Beam was also deployed at the Glasto Latino Stage, where Enlighted specced the Outcast 1L Beam, and Outcast 2X Wash, along with the Colordash Par H12; as well as at the San Remo Stage, where Wolf Lighting made use of the Rogue Outcast 1 BeamWash and Rogue Outcast 1L Beam.

At the Greenpeace area, IPS and Colour Sound Experiment combined to furnish a kit that featured the Maverick Storm 4 Profile, and Strike Array 2. Meanwhile, GLX Productions was essential in creating the Flying Bus Stage rig, where it supplied the Maverick Storm 4 Profile hired through IPS, Rogue Outcast 1L Beam and Strike 1, along with the Color Strike M.

Fineline Lighting also made good use of Chauvet products. At the Circus Big Top, the company generated visuals with help from the Maverick Storm 1 Spot and Rogue R2X Wash, while using the Color Strike M and Rogue R2X Wash, as well as the Color Strike M at the Lonely Heart Club Stage. Fineline used the Colorado Q40 panel, along with the Ovation E-910FC at the Acoustic Stage, and Maverick Storm 1 Wash at the Cabaret Stage.

At the Outside Circus Stage, Enlightened deployed the Rogue Outcast 2X Wash, and Rogue Outcast 1 BeamWash to project excitement in the air, and at The Hive Stage, Luke Adams Lighting supplied the Maverick Force S Spot, Strike Array 2 and Rogue R2X Wash.
