XL Events is supplying audio and video equipment plus 4 crew for the CBeeBies Live "Treasure Hunt" UK arena tour which is being production managed by Nigel Mousley for BBC Worldwide.

XL Events' Rich Rowley says "This is the 4th year that I have been involved in this project and every year brings a new set of challenges! This year we were looking at big rear projected images with the addition of a ‘lifesize’ giraffe and elephant to contend with. As you can imagine some pretty creative keystoning was needed to allow the beasts to move around backstage.”

Craig Pryde is mixing FOH and monitors, both from the FOH position.

The main arrays are 4 hangs of 12 dV-DOSC elements positioned for 270 degree coverage around the arenas, plus 6 flown dV-SUBs.

They're using 8 of the L-ACOUSTICS 108P speakers for front fills, with these and the flown arrays are set up in a standard arena design format at each venue, with the only variable aspect being the trim height. The system is tuned and calculated each day by XL Events systems engineer James Neale to deliver crisp, clear and even coverage with excellent vocal intelligibility.
