Dragonfly Stage by Arcadia Spectacular

Unveiled at Glastonbury Festival 2024, Arcadia’s Dragonfly Stage is a jaw-dropping reinvention of its iconic immersive arena—this time featuring a 360-degree audio-visual experience suspended beneath a massive 40-tonne recycled military helicopter. To ensure faultless audio across this uniquely challenging space, AF Live turned to Sennheiser’s Evolution Wireless Digital EW-DX wireless microphone system and Sennheiser’s 2000 Series IEMs for monitoring and robust RF infrastructure—all critical in a setting where massive fire bursts, lasers, and crowd energy collide. Sennheiser’s solutions delivered the reliability, clarity, and frequency agility needed to cut through one of the most complex and visually explosive productions on the festival circuit.

The British Academy

The ambitious transformation of the British Academy’s headquarters at 10–11 Carlton House Terrace in London brought together timeless Georgian architecture with cutting-edge AV design. Spanning multiple floors, a team including Recursive, Media Powerhouse, and CSL Integration delivered highly versatile, multi-purpose spaces. Sennheiser’s audio solutions such as TeamConnect Ceiling 2 (TCC 2), TeamConnect Ceiling Medium (TCC M), SpeechLine Digital Wireless (SL DW) and MobileConnect ensured flawless audio experience across all the spaces.
