Celestial are the UK’s newest and most forward thinking experts in mid-air, large scale spectacles, using their amazing drone technology to produce shows that delight and inspire. For their latest ‘Evolution’ series, Enlightened were chosen to provide on-the-ground support for the events across the UK.

We worked with Celestial’s head of production to specify a lighting package that made the most of the mid-air spectacle by providing on-the-ground effects to complement the show. We worked with respected lighting designer John Partridge to help create a lighting design based on top of the line equipment from manufacturers such as Ayrton, Chauvet, and MA Lighting.

 Using powerful outdoor rated fixtures from our hire stock, we could create a variety of midair effects. Producing smoke and haze effects in an outdoor setting is always challenging, but Celestial were committed to having an ethereal quality to their show, so we designed and supplied a custom haze solution to ensure equal dispersion of the smoke and haze effects around the large outdoor sites. 

Enlightened also provided a varied package of control and infrastructure equipment including lighting control, site-wide data transmission, and power distribution support.
