Let's talk safety at events

PLANNING EVENTS IS FUN AND ADVENTUROUS. YOU GET TO CREATE SOMETHING FROM NOTHING AND WATCH IT COME TO LIFE!

When people attend events, they don’t think about things like safety – they expect that the organisers already have. So it’s an important part of your responsibility in hosting an event. We’ve put together this starting guide to the basics of safety at events.

Line-X Inflatable Axion – A Winning Display

Line-X Puts Best Foot Forward using an Axion Exhibit

Line-X Australia wanted an outdoor exhibit that would put them a step above their competitors. After discussing their options with Stretch Structures they chose the AXION Square with branding, visors and side walls. The structure turned heads at their latest show, the Perth 4WD and Adventure Show, and made a positive impact in bold black, which made their yellow Line-X logo pop.

Environmentally friendly wood and stretch fabric stages

FESTIVAL CLIENT – Tommy Lyle, Wood of a Kind

Wood Stage and BedouinFlex fabric (Tommy Lyle, Wood of a Kind)

We first chatted to Tommy Lyle of Wood of a Kind from Boulder Colorado back in January, 2016. We instantly resonated with his philosophy and approach to his craft. He is a rustic wood worker and festival stages are just one of the ways he expresses himself.

For his first project working with us, he chose Bedouinflex Premium fabric for the canopy of the stage in order to insulate and waterproof the wooden structure. He was pleased with how easy it was to work with the fabric. The concept: the stage needed to be permanent, but the waterproof canopy would be assembled and disassembled according to the up-coming event.

This was a particularly large structure (90” x 50”; 27m x 15m) but the fabric is so lightweight that he was able to wash it himself and only needed the assistance of one other colleague to put it up.

‘We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.’ Winston Churchill

Surely one of the greatest things a human being can do is share their talent and abilities to better the lives of others. Well, that’s exactly the situation we found with SEAM (Sustain Education Art Melanesia) who provide a creative learning environment for making books and SEAM Design Manager Stephen Collier of Stephen Collier Architects, Australia. They set their sights on Papua New Guinea and it’s rural communities who need education facilities and support.

Now think of achieving that same type of hypnotic effect with your next event. The new trend is immersive marketing puts the guest slap-bang in the middle of <read more>
