THE BEAT HOTEL
A much-loved party hub and Glastonbur y mainstay since 2011, The Beat
Hotel ensured the party took place one last time before checking out for
good. Of course, this meant going out in style. Showtec Sunstrip LEDs were
embedded into the walls of the stage area dividing the three bedrooms with
PALSAR ChromaSpheres suspended down each side of the venue, while
the main centre truss consisted of Martin by Harman MAC 101s, MAC 301s
and Atomic 3000 strobes. Lewis Beard manned an Avolites Tiger Touch Pro
running Titan v11.3 alongside the AV51 team providing technical production
and power distribution for the venue.

THEATRE AND CIRCUS
Nestled in the heart of Worthy Farm is Theatre and Cabaret – three fields
of spectacles, music and comedy. Complete with high-flying acrobats
and puppetr y in the theatre and circus field, a wild mix of comedy,
ventriloquism, spoken word, and trapeze was the flavour of the space.
Inside the Big Top, Fineline Productions brought the show to life with the
Arena and the Art 2000 dimmer, creating drama and atmosphere for the
huge range of performers and acts.
The Cabaret tent was a unique experience at Glastonbur y, with
comedians, dancers and a host of different performers gracing the stage.
Fineline brought in the Avolites Quartz with a mobile wing to set the mood.
A firm favourite with the Avolites team, Glasto Latino brought the eclectic
atmosphere of Carnival to the Glastonbur y fields. Martyn Sargent of
Enlightened kept the party going with the Pearl Expert. A late cabaret

spectacle, Maverick provides a unique alternative for the late-night
entertainment. Ben Dodds of Enlightened used an Avolites Tiger Touch II
to bring the night to life.
Elsewhere, the iconic Ribbon Tower of the Park area stood high and
mighty over the spectators. At night, the tower was illuminated by LED
batons, all programmed by Adam Davies on the Avolites Quartz provided
by Enlightened.
While nestled in the corner of the circus field, Summer House brought
dance troops and live music entertainment throughout the day. Matthew
Dunford and Alistair Brick working for Enlightened used their own Titan
Mobile to control the rig to ensure complete reliability over the weekend.
