XL Events - Oman's National Day Celebrations

Posted on 03/03/2011

Oman's National Day celebrations were held in Muscat in December 2010. A massive stadium event with a cast of thousands that required a world class production team to pull it all together.

XL Events supplied by far the biggest feature of the event, a 697 sqm PIXLED F30 screen that dominated the centre stage. Another feature although slightly more modest was a 112 sqm Barco MiTrix screen positioned at the East end of the stadium, and XL's custom built touring frames made the on site rigging all the more simple.

On the West side of the stadium, XL tied into the in-house Daktronics screen.

3 catalysts were used for playback of the custom footage and broadcast to the screens with a Barco Encore system used to manipulate the images.

Over 12000 school children, over 1000 staff from Oman's MInistry of Education and numerous others took part in this epic performance. The show was produced by production company Flux Events for Avantgarde.
