When the exclusive World Travel Awards — Indian Ocean Gala Ceremony took place recently at the luxurious Paradise Island Resort & Spa in the Maldives, local event company, Azidon Pvt Ltd used the occasion to introduce its new lighting inventory from the Chinese lighting manufacturer PR Lighting.

Azidon Pvt Ltd sponsored the production forthe World Travel Awards – Indian Ocean Gala Ceremony as an event partner. “Our intricate local knowledgeof the seas, islands and beaches gives us an edge when it comes to delivery,” says Azidon’s Managing Director, M. Fayid Farouk.

In addition, Azidon also offers private andexclusive VVIP event packages in partnership with its sister company, Lets GoMaldives Pvt Ltd.

As an event partner, the company knew that the set needed to be dressed to perfection and it turned to its recently acquired PR Lighting inventory, which comprises eight each of the new XR 300 Beam and XLED 1037. These were carefully selected by the company’s experienced Director of Events & Operations, Ahmed Hamzoon.

“I chose PR Lighting for its reasonable pricing, good quality components and branded filaments,” says Hamzoon.“Further more, I am also really impressed by the company’s very responsive after sales service. As an events company, we continuously need to adapt, andhaving a confident relationship with our vendors is of utmost importance tous.”

“While the existing fixtures are more than of lighting an exclusive private beach for events and parties, we look forward to procuring more lights from PR Lighting in the near future. We continuously try to align our inventory towards customer-centric solutions —and since venues in the Maldives tend to be very small, and our transport is by sea, we focus on highly effective solutions deliverable in a small package,” says Fayid. And PRLighting met this criteria.

Equipped with 300W Platinum 15R lamp and convex lens, the XR 300 Beam produces a super-concentrated parallel beam with an incredible output, makingit especially useful for long-throw applications. The super-bright, fully-featured XLED 1037 is a new LED moving head, characterised by the use of 37 x 10 Watt RGBW LEDs (containing four colours in one). For the World Travel Awards – Indian Ocean Gala Ceremony, Azidon’s creative team designed the set to enable the fixtures to function respectively as beam and wash lights, firing down from the overhead truss to ensure the stage and podium represented a dramatic, constantly colour changing scene.
