ADLIB choose JBL VerTec for Radio 1 Big Weekend

The temperatures soared to sizzling along with the excitement for the BBC's One Big Weekend in beautiful Vaynol Park, Bangor, North Wales, which officially kicked off the UK 2010 Festival season, with ADLIB supplying sound for 5 areas and lighting for two.


For the In New Music We Trust stage, the second largest at the event, the system was a JBL VerTec full-size line array, chosen for its light weight and excellent quality for the dynamic range of music which featured up to 9 international artists per day.

ADLIB flew 6 x VT4889 boxes a side - as many as possible with the height of the ground support, and 6 VerTec 4880A subs, ground stacked per side.

ADLIB also supplied a Soundcraft Vi6 for Vampire Weekend as spec’d by their engineer.

Liverpool, UK based ADLIB has been involved in the event for many years, initially starting with the audio supply for one stage and their role has steadily grown. ADLIB account handler Phil Kielty says, "It's always a great pleasure to be involved in this event, which has its own unique vibe. One minute you can see an act play an unplugged set in the Live Lounge, an hour later you can see them headline the main stage – it really is a very special event".
