This is the second time Abu Dhabi hosted the MENA regional games, the last time being ten years ago in 2008 and it has certainly grown in size since then. From 23 countries and 12 sports to 32 countries and 16 sports, it shows how people’s perceptions are changing for the better welcoming diversity, becoming more inclusive, and celebrating the abilities of people of determination.
Protec, honoured to have been part of such an inspiring show, provided lighting, audio and video as well as some rigging for the show in ADNEC. HQ Worldwide provided their own lighting design and the video content. Project Manager, Simon Travis, gave us a rundown of some of the set up for lighting.

Underneath the grandstand five more little scaffold towers were placed so we could use our smaller truss and hang fixtures around the area.
