A nice job at Old Trafford to end the week…

Last night, some of our office team and freelance riggers attended the dress rehearsal for Alegria by Cirque du Soleil at the Royal Albert Hall - a show that we were once again delighted to be asked to provide our specialist rigging services for.

Thank you to Cirque du Soleil for the tickets and our extended team for their hard work in delivering this epic spectacle.

Rigging Team were delighted to see in the New Year with the National Lottery New Years Eve Big Bash. Working with Motionhouse and High Performance we provided our specialist automation and performer flying services to the TV spectacular recorded at OVO Arena Wembley.

Our office is now on reduced hours for the festive period, reopening on 2nd January 2024.

We'd like to thank all our clients, suppliers, freelancers and staff for another incredible year and can't wait to see what exciting projects we'll undertake together in 2024.

On Saturday, Rigging Team were honoured to provide our specialist services for the unveiling of two new statues at the Royal Albert Hall.

The event saw King Charles unveil the statue of his late mother Queen Elizabeth, while Camilla pulled back the curtain on the bust of Prince Philip prior to the Festival of Remembrance.

Earlier in the week we provided a similar solution for the unveiling of statues of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert on the north side of the hall.

There were a number of challenges to overcome such as short lead-time and very tight windows for installation and removal, in order to fit around audience movements. Both events went smoothly with all work being completed ahead of schedule - huge thanks to our fantastic team for their hard work in making this happen.
