A night of elegance at PGA National Resort

The glitz and glam of Palm Beach was on full display at our most recent show, an awards gala for a local apartment association for which we produced a full AV complement in partnership with Paragon Events. The PGA Ballroom at the resort was the perfect backdrop for the occasion, which was fully in theme showcasing tropical décor and pale pinks and vibrant greens throughout the room.

Our set included two front projection screens on each side of one main stage with projectors secured onto a truss goal post that was positioned at the front of the room, along with many of our lighting fixtures. Audio was also ground supported around the perimeter of the ballroom, with use of one lectern mic throughout the entire show.

We brought in a presidential teleprompting system as the show followed a direct script to highlight sponsors and announce awards nominees and winners. Outside of the ballroom, there were many ancillary areas of the hotel that we also supported. We had up-lights and a small PA system in the foyer, some Astra panels to light a step-and-repeat, and full sound and lighting in the British Ballroom that had a live band performing for the after party.

The run of show consisted of pre-recorded VOGs to announce nominees, a full playlist of specific music tracks for walk-ons, sponsor videos, and a live 20-minute performance by LED drummers to kick off the show as they played to track.

We had two separate crews for this one: a day load-in/set crew and an evening show/strike crew. Between the two, it was a full day from 7:00am to the following 2:00am after load-out. Thank you to Alicia Crupi and the entire Paragon Events team for trusting us with this show for the second straight year!
