Conference Production at The Grove, Hertfordshire

We were delighted to provide full conference production at The Grove Hotel in Watford.

The event was for a regular client ‘Cognita’ who wanted to recognise success and bring their team together to share & develop ideas, thinking & strategy. Our technical team provided Stage, Set, Sound, Lighting & Video, which included our conference set including 3 screens, which were from our stock of 2.9mm pitch LED wall. We also provided a NEXO sound system, with lectern mics, lavier lapel mics, handheld radio mics and uplighting plus, stage lighting for the event.

On the first evening there was an awards event, where the lighting provided some additional fizz to proceedings, to change the feel of the event from learning/sharing to celebrating. We had technicians on site throughout the event to ensure everything was covered and whether it was sound, video or lighting we were able to support the clients wishes in any eventuality.

Our client said: “We were really thrilled with the service provided by JustSmile and we would like to ask you to quote again for the exact same set up that we had in October last year.”

With lots more examples of different conference production available, Just Smile should have a suitable solution for your event.

Festival Staging

Music Festival Production

We were contacted to provide Stage, Sound, Lighting & Power for a private music festival for a company who hold an annual event for employees to enjoy some entertainment and drinks at a private property away from their usual workplace. Our Festival Production crew pulled out the stops to ensure all acts were happy to perform.

Our client booked one of our popular festival stages suitable for a mixture of acts & DJ. Over the coming weeks more acts were added and we were arranging Stage, Sound and Lighting requirements for Toploader and Deacon Blue who had been booked to perform at the event.

We upgraded our stage to include cowsheds so that we could use rolling risers, provided the sound and lighting elements required and delivered a sensational end result with minimal fuss to our client.
