UAE: Following a year focused on corporate events, Dubai-based rental house, Protec, has returned to the concert market supplying three performances in the UAE. Protec was called in to provide equipment for Nicki Minaj and the Autism Rocks festival in Dubai as well as KCON a K-pop festival in Abu Dhabi.
The Nicki Minaj concert was organised by the newly formed 117Live and took place at temporary venue, the Autism Rocks Arena, next to Dubai Outlet Mall. Protec provided lighting, video and rigging for the show working closely with Nicki Minaj LD, Kathy Beer, and video engineer, Daunte Kenner. ‘Protec is a great company with great gear, lovely crew and everything went swimmingly,’ said Ms Beer. ‘As with anything we had to make a few changes because all the communication was done via email but the guys were quick to respond and the changes were made without fuss and with great speed. We were also able to end rehearsal early last night which I always love.’
