ROE Visual Air Frames and LED Screens Used at Pinkpop Festival 2018

ROE Visual LED screens adorned the two main stages of Pinkpop Festival in the Netherlands last week. Faber Audiovisuals was again responsible for the supply of all LED screens, camera work and live streaming from the festival.

Faber has created AV solutions for the festival for several years. This image is from 2017.

Framing both the main stage and the 3FM Stage, ROE Visual LED screens were used to capture the on-stage action and live performances. In the run-up to the festival, Faber Audiovisuals’ Steven Embregts explained the set-up in more detail:

stevenembregts“For the 3FM stage we use two side screens, both 74m². The LED display we use there is the MC7. For the main stage, we use two huge screens of 104m² each, consisting of Carbon CB5 panels”.

The CB5 panels were supported by the newly-released Air Frame support system, a lightweight touring system that is compatible with the Carbon series. It provides an all-in-one solution for hanging, stacking and transportation. Embregts also said:

“Measuring 13m high and 8m wide, we really had some considerations building these screens. Building had to be both quick and safe. Structurally calculated to absorb high wind speeds, the ROE Visual Air Frame offers the ideal solution for us.

At first, we were a bit worried about damaging the screens during the build. Although very lightweight, measuring 120cm x 120cm, CB5 panels are quite large but during the build, everything went smooth. The panels and the frames fit together perfectly and building a large LED wall like this is amazingly fast”.
