THE CHALLENGE

The 2019 Hockey Canada Foundation Gala & Golf legacy was to be held at Rogers Place – NHL’s newest arena in Ice District. This flagship fundraiser anticipated attendance large enough to fill five rows of banquet tables spanning from goal post to goal post.

THE SOLUTION

Visually, we unleashed the monster screen! With guests seated from goal line to goal line, the venue required a 100’ x 17’ Ultrawide screen. Powered by four 14K Christie Projectors at 56,000 lumens, this would become invert’s largest projection blend to date. The crisp HD video images seamlessly floated across this massive screen, providing both full screen looks as well as IMAG and video playback areas overtop of the canvas – all adding to the event for a feature-rich display.

Given the width of the event space, treating guests with great audio coverage was key. Using d&b audiotechnik’s ArrayCalc software, we were able to design and deliver! With four individually flown PA hang points and a couple point source boxes, guests could walk from end to end and hear consistent, clean sound.
