Kinetic Lighting Hosts Industry's Annual Must-Visit Open House Event

Kinetic Lighting will be hosting its annual open house on March 26 from 1pm to 8pm. This event is a technology showcase and mixer for creative and technical, and professionals in the live-event industry.

This year's event will include presentations by industry experts.

Richard Cadena will present his popular Techopolis series: "The Live Event Production Universe" in a lively discussion with lighting designers from the concert touring, live events, and television/film realms.

A second panel, "Collaborate, Communicate, Create," will include a dialog among professionals from various production disciplines, including designers, producers, technical directors, and venue managers.

Unique to Kinetic's open house is a layout that groups products by category, rather than manufacturer, the company says. The format allows attendees to do side-by-side-by-side comparisons of like fixtures.

Many new products will be on display from Apollo Designs, Barco Lighting, BlinkFX, Chauvet, Chroma-Q, Clay-Paky, Elation Professional, ETC, Gantom (formerly Darklight), GLP, Harman (Martin Professional), MA Lighting, Prism Projection, Rosco, SGM, and Vari-Lite.

The Habit Burger Grill truck will offer free food (including a vegetarian option) included from 1pm-7:30pm. Guests will also enjoy hand-crafted snacks and desserts, alongside a hosted bar.

Attendees will also be eligible to win prizes in several raffles that will take place throughout the event.

Tickets are free but attendees are required to RSVP at https://kinetic2015.eventbrite.com.

Sponsors include Along Came Mary Events, Angel City Designs, Aqua Dazzle, BlinkFX, Design 8 Furniture Rentals, DJ Johnny Knight, MxxMaster Sound, NEP Sweetwater, SMS Generators, Sterling Engagements.
