Large halls, large audiences
At corporate events with many guests, the band has to reach the whole room without overwhelming the front tables. We plan line-up and setup according to room size and running order.
The rooms we are configured for in Dortmund
Dortmund celebrates in several types of room, and each one calls for a different setup: — Large hall: wide spaces, hundreds of guests, long distances between stage and the back of the room. The setup is matched to size and audience. — Industrial-style event space: concrete and steel, acoustically bare. Without planning it sounds like an empty hall — so it is agreed in advance. — Grand hotel or conference ballroom: representative, often with speeches on the programme. We play controlled and provide sound support for speeches. — Open air, marquee or factory grounds: weather and power set the plan. We arrive with backup. We clarify which type applies in advance with the venue and its in-house technicians — including which system is already on site and what we add. It is in the quote, not in the small print.
Corporations and the Mittelstand
Whether it is a corporate summer party or the anniversary of a family business: the evening needs a dramaturgy with speeches, awards and a dance floor. We build the setlist around your programme.
