Northern Light Shines On Events

8 August 2006

Northern Light's recently launched Events division is taking the industry by storm.

Launched in April, the team has already been responsible for bringing numerous prestigious events to life.

Gregor Murray, Events Manager at Northern Light, said: "The UK events market is ripe for a new player - and Northern Light has the experience and expertise to offer a fresh and innovative approach."

Gregor joined Northern Light from his own company - Edinburgh based Liquid Lighting - and is no stranger to servicing high profile events. Working with venues, event organisers and directly with artists, Gregor has been providing specialist hire services and consultancy for over 15 years.

To date, the Northern Light Events team have provided specialist lighting and sound hire to major events including the After Shock Arena at the Download Festival in Donnington Park, the Duracell Arena at T in the Park, the Braun Arena at the National Adventure Sports Show at the NEC, the Edinburgh Rat Race and the Global Gathering near Stratford upon Avon.

With such diverse services as supplying and installing professional quality DJ equipment or perfecting the lighting and sound at a high profile wedding, it would be a challenge to nonplus the events team at Northern Light.

Colin Cuthbert, Managing Director of Northern Light, said: "Expanding into the events sector was part of our existing business strategy and is a key area for growth. Northern Light's vast experience of sound, lighting and stage engineering means that this additional string to our bow enhances our service to customers, whilst making sure we remain at the cutting edge of the market."
