This year’s Prolight+Sound (PL+S) was significantly more buoyant than 2010’s event. Like London’s PLASA show last September, there was definitely more of a buzz in the main hall, and manufacturers seemed to have positive expectations for the coming months. One thing that was particularly apparent in the lighting halls was the number of manufacturers eager to do their bit for the environment, with plenty of “green” products on show. Numbers were up compared to last year as well, both on the exhibitor and visitor front, with a total of 834 exhibiting companies (+6 percent) and 110,000 visitors (+1.4 percent) attending this year’s show from a total of 124 countries.
