Adlib supplied full production to DF Concerts for the 2019 Glasgow Summer Sessions – three concerts over two consecutive weekends in Bellahouston Park – attracting more than 100,000 people to see headliners The Cure, Foo Fighters and The 1975.

The project was coordinated from Glasgow’s Scottish Office by Chris Neary and Craig Hamilton, who created a production visual and audio design that also facilitated each of the headliner’s own productions. Adlib provided The Cure’s four-truss ‘house’ rig, with both Foo Fighters and The 1975 installing their own video and lighting specials packages ‘underneath’ the house system.

With Ed Sheeran’s appearance setting new records for the annual seven-day-long Sziget Festival on Hajógyári Island, north of Budapest, long standing main stage sound reinforcement supplier Capital Sound brought in its Martin Audio MLA loudspeaker array family across Europe in a two-truck arrangement and ‘topping up’ with assistance from local MLA partner, BG Event. BG, in turn, provided its own Martin Audio inventory for two dedicated EDM dance stages.

‘The event gets bigger every year which is why the PA spec has grown. We are consistently asked to upgrade it,’ says Capital Head of Operations & Sales, Paul Timmins.
