“Forty years is a huge feat for any venue, and the QEII has always been iconic, so it is no surprise this year’s Summer Showcase was worth marking properly. Event Trees had the vision for it and we know how they build, so we could make the parts to suit the way they were going to put it together. That audience was a metre away from the work all evening, which is a different job to something you see from across a hall. Helping the Centre put its own history under people’s feet and in people’s eyelines was an incredible thing to be asked to do, and we are looking forward to the next one with the Event Trees team”

Simon McKenzie, CEO, Hollywood Monster

“We’ve worked with Hollywood Monster on enough projects now that we don’t have to explain how we build. That matters on something like this. Three floors, forty years to cover in one evening, and a Westminster building that had to be back to normal the next morning. They made the parts to suit the way we assemble, everything arrived ready to go, and having two of their installers with us for the final finishes meant the last few hours were about detail rather than problem solving. It’s a proper working relationship, and you feel the benefit of it on the difficult jobs.”
