But equal focus was placed on GLP’s highly professional, and ever-expanding, technical and customer support team.Read More »GLP’s impression X5 Family Integration Reaps Rich Rewards at PLASA Show

Whoever attends Grönemeyer’s concerts quickly realizes they are in the presence of an exceptional artist. His fans already know that, of course. And so, at 67 years old, Herbert Grönemeyer hops and prances about the stage and gives tens of thousands of fans two hours of bliss, night after night.Read More »More Than 220 GLP Fixtures in Use on Herbert Grönemeyer’s Das ist los Arena Tour
The Bilbao Exhibition Centre (BEC) was dressed for a special occasion recently for the farewell concert party for Hertzainak, spread over two nights. Hertzainak was a leading light in the movement known as ‘Basque radical rock’. Their first records combined the provocation of punk with the dance rhythms of reggae and ska, maintaining the political situation in the Basque Country as the context of their songs. For such an auspicious occasion, the eminent Lighting Designer Carlos Cirre was commissioned to design a show that would transport the audience back to the purest style of the 80s and 90s and evoke a retro spirit recreated by 100 state-of-the-art fixtures from the catalogue of GLP. This included 35 of the new impression X5.Read More »GLP Fills Hertzainak’s Farewell Performance with Color in Bilbao
