Lightmedia Display’s Contribution
Lightmedia proudly supported this year’s festival with a comprehensive LED sscreen and production package:

- 3 broadcast cameras, capturing performances across all four main shows
- Live vision mixing, providing seamless switching between camera feeds for vibrant on screen visuals
Our setup brought UB40’s reggae rhythms, Elbow’s emotive melodies, and the soulful energy of Kenny Thomas and Sonique to life, enhancing the audience experience both live and on screen.
Why It’s Special
- Iconic location – the Priory & Castle perched on cliffs overlooking the beach and sea create one of the most scenic live venues in the UK
- Diverse appeal – from chart topping acts to street theatre and jazz, the festival offers something for everyone, community and visitor alike
- Crowd & atmosphere – sold out shows on Friday and Saturday and packed weekend crowds underscored the festival’s draw and vibrant energy
