Mardi Gras Week

This week we're all involved in Mardi Gras in some way or another. Dan and Greg head off from Tuesday to install lighting on the parade's largest floats. This year, we've added a ton of new LED equipment that will be more waterproof and use less power than in previous years. The week of work culminates with the massive parade snaking its way through Darlinghurst to Moore Park on Saturday night. You'll be able to check out the event live on TV too. Meanwhile, I'm out at the Royal Hall of Industries and the Hordern Pavilion designing the lighting for the two main rooms of the world famous MG Party. Can't say or show too much at the moment, but we're installing huge rigs in both rooms, and there's some pretty cool stuff going up around the site as well. It's probably our busiest week yet, but we're having fun, and it's been great working with Aztech and the whole MG team as usual.
