Conference AV and awards night for Digital Construction Live

Client: Digital Construction Live

The Challenge:

Digital Construction Live required a single production partner to manage the full scope of the event — not just the Conference AV, but also the planning, logistics, floor layout, and client-facing management that makes a multi-format day run smoothly. Specifically, key requirements included:

Key requirements included:

Key requirements included:

• First, a large LED wall as the primary visual backdrop for the conference stage, providing high-impact branding and presentation display.
• In addition, full PA and audio coverage for the conference programme, including VIP keynote speakers and panel sessions.
• Furthermore, a seamless transition from conference format into an awards night setup within the same space.
• Just as importantly, on-the-day client handling and production management, ensuring the organiser could focus on their attendees rather than the technical operation.
• Finally, coordination of multiple elements — audio, video, staging, and floor plan — across a full day’s programme.

Our Solution:

Sound and Vision NI delivered a fully integrated AV and production package, including:

✅ Large LED wall – First and foremost, a high-impact LED wall as the conference stage centrepiece — providing crisp, bright display for presentations, speaker branding, and awards visuals throughout the day and evening.
✅ Production planning – Meanwhile, pre-event floor planning, technical specification, and production scheduling — translating the client’s vision into a workable event design for the Crumlin Road Gaol space.
✅ Awards night production – In addition, transition of the space from conference to awards format, including reconfiguration, lighting changes, and audio setup for the evening programme.
✅ On-the-day client management – Just as importantly, a single point of contact for all technical and production matters throughout the day — handling changes, solving problems, and keeping the programme on time.
✅ Full PA and audio – Alongside this, professional PA coverage and front-of-house mixing for the full programme. Specifically, a wireless microphone setup for VIP keynote speakers, panel discussions, and awards presentations.
✅ Conference AV management – Similarly, full technical management of the daytime conference programme — slides, video, speaker transitions, and timing — allowing the event team to focus on content and attendees.
✅ VIP speaker handling – Finally, on-site technical support and briefing for VIP keynote speakers — microphone fitting, slide checks, and run-of-show coordination before each session.

The Results:

• Ultimately, Digital Construction Live ran to schedule across a full conference and awards programme at one of Belfast’s most complex event spaces.
• Throughout, VIP speakers were fully supported; then, the awards evening transitioned smoothly from the daytime conference. As a result, the production team managed the day without the client needing to worry about the conference AV.
• Consequently, the LED wall delivered the visual impact the client needed for a flagship industry event.
