A California-based festival production company required weather-resistant, high-output lighting for beachside stages and crowd zones. The venue faced salt air, gusty coastal winds, and a need for vibrant color effects synchronized to performances.
Client ConcernsThe team prioritized IP-rated protection, wind stability, DMX control for dynamic shows, and enough lumen output to cover large outdoor areas. Portability and fast setup were critical given a one-day load-in.
HAFE SolutionHAFE supplied the Venus RGBW 400W Inflatable Balloon Light with IP54 rating, 40,000 lm output, and 80 km/h wind resistance.
