Providing a State of the Art Lighting Solution for The Ballroom, Accrington Town Hall, Lancashire

Project brief

A.C. Special Projects were briefed to specify, supply, install and commission a state of the art, energy efficient LED lighting and control system to meet the diverse, multipurpose needs of events hosted by The Ballroom at Accrington Town Hall, including theatre-style live shows, dances, conferences, fashion shows and wedding receptions.

The classic ballroom, which dates back to 1853, recently underwent a £750k respectful restoration and when it came to upgrading The Ballroom's stage and architectural effects lighting systems, the venue wanted a modern system which could provide a 'wow' factor and allow the room's look to be tailored for a diverse range of client events.

The room's energy efficient LED system has contributed to a reduction in The Ballroom's event lighting power consumption and shortened set-up times for events, due to the lighting's huge colour-mixing palette as compared to the original system's conventional Pars utilising coloured gels.

A.C. Special Projects

The Ballroom is the jewel in the area's crown, so given the level of investment made to restore the room to its former glory, we wanted to upgrade to a high performance effects lighting and control system which would provide a visually impressive complement to the room's interior. The elegant solution provided by A.C. Special Projects delivers on everything we wanted – it's easy to use, gives us and our clients total flexibility to tailor the lighting to their bespoke requirements and has reduced our running costs associated with setting up and powering the lighting for events.
