Here at Illuminated Events, we are very proud to have contributed our services to the highly successful and well received Llandudno Winter Light / Golau Gaeaf – Chapter 1.

This unique theatrical parade, drawing on the myths and legends of the Orme, took place on the streets of Llandudno to a complimenting backdrop of colourfully illuminated buildings and stunning outdoor projections.

Our role in the event was to create a backdrop of lighting and projections, at various locations along Mostyn Street so as to add an inviting, colourful atmosphere to the theatrical parade…… and from the highly positive feedback we received from members of the public, we think that the many thousands of people who attended the event enjoyed what they saw.

As part of our undertakings for Llandudno Winter Light Chapter 1, the Art Deco architecture above Marks & Spencer on Mostyn Street was brought to life with projected imagery.
We set up our 20,000 lumen Barco HD projectors, positioned in windows above the Library and Victoria Shopping Centre on the opposite side of the road.
From this excellent location we  had a good direct line of sight for projection mapping on to the full length of the building.

We edge blended multiple projectors to create a single huge image the full width of the building – and using simple projection mapping, we projected a series of images representing the mythical theme of the event, including an ox, a Viking ship, a mermaid and the bilingual Winter Light / Golau Gaeaf logo.
The outdoor building projection created a warm and inviting atmosphere for the audience gathered along Mostyn Street and provided a colourful backdrop to the Winter Light parade as it made its way through Llandudno.

When viewed from the street outside, the illuminated church window looked very impressive with the rich and intense light majestically radiating through it.

We illuminated the 1st floor walls above the former M&S shop in rich colour, using our Studio Due CItycolor architectural flood lights.

Further along Mostyn Street, we helped bring the backdrop of the Llandudno Winter Light parade to life with a bright and colourful array of illuminated buildings and trees.
Many of the buildings along Mostyn Street, were colourfully illuminated with our Chauvet and Studio Due exterior LED flood lights, whilst some of the buildings were brought to life with custom gobo light projections of the mythical creatures and objects represented in the parade.

Some of these themed gobo projections were moving around on the buildings as the parade made its way past.
Many of the gobo designs were custom made for us especially for Llandudno Winter Light.

The event draws to a conclusion in North Western Gardens

In North Western Gardens for the finale of the Llandudno Winter Light Chapter 1 parade, we provided a small outdoor stage structure, together with our RCF line array PA system.
This was primarily for an Opera Singer from the Welsh National Opera to perform for the finale of the event.
To illuminate the outdoor stage area, we used our Chauvet and SGM outdoor lighting fixtures suspended from an overhead truss structure.

To help further bring the area near the outdoor stage to life, we up-lit various trees and colourfully illuminated the ornate public toilet building with a combination of our Chauvet exterior floods and IP65 LED battens.
As the event drew to its conclusion, the illuminated Ox and fire breathing Viking ship from the parade gathered around the outdoor stage area in North Western Gardens.
Then the talented opera singer gave a captivating and atmospheric performance, much to the appreciation of the audience.
