Party-like spookiness with RCF at the Smèrrig Halloween Festival in the Netherlands

LightSoundJournal.com: The Smèrrig Halloween Festival in s’Hertogenbosch, the Netherlands, was celebrated with four stages. The event is an institution in Den Bosch and this year’s edition attracted around 11,000 fans to the Brabanthallen. In a spooky atmosphere, many nationally known DJs and music acts provided the atmosphere and party mood. Audio equipment from RCF provided the perfect sound on three out of four stages.

I can’t say that this is my type of event but they have some decent equipment. There isn’t too much to comment on in this article, but I think that the 360 venue setup is a pretty cool idea. Are there 4 stages or 4 venues for this event? It seems like a pretty great space, but technology-wise it seems like a fairly slim budget. It is interesting to see a venue that clearly is capable of supporting larger/more advanced setups. I won't say that it is a small tech set up but I have seen much more advanced designs for a lighting rig. There were some cool looks that were included in the video. It seems like one of the design challenges that they faced was lighting a very large area with a limited rig. Props to them for what they designed and I bet that their audiences had a good time.
