Branching out

Entec Lighting helped the Larmer Tree Festival celebrate its 18th birthday recently, supplying lighting to the Main Stage, Garden Stage and several other performance arenas. The festival, run by J&J Events, is set in the Larmer Tree Gardens on the Wiltshire/Dorset borders. Entec’s crew of Mark Jones, Doug Flude and Phil Lee being crew chiefed by Richard Hutton, the main stage lighting being run by Mark Jones.

Entec sub-hung a series of trusses below the 50ft ‘stretch’ Orbit roof supplied by Serious, the idea being to maximise the space and provide as much flexibility to light the massive variety of bands appearing. The moving lights were eight Martin Professional MAC 700 Profiles and eight MAC 250 Washes, joined by eight Bars of six PARs, two sets of Studio Due CS4s and two Entec custom crackers to create special haze. The only visiting LD was Simon Honnor for Jools Holland. www.entec-soundandlight.com
