Hotel ballroom gala dinner in Capri
A corporate-style gala dinner inside a Capri hotel ballroom: brand presentations, live music, awards and an after-dinner DJ set, run as one tight production.
The starting point.
- Corporate gala with international audience and several speakers.
- Goal: high-quality presentation audio + relaxed live music + party closing.
- Constraint: indoor closing time and hotel sound limits for adjacent rooms.
What we ran.
- Reception with jazz trio and DJ background.
- Dinner with jazz trio rotating with curated DJ playlist.
- Awards on stage with full microphone plan, click track and video sound feed.
- After-dinner DJ set with party lighting on dance floor.
How it actually worked on the day.
- Stage and PA dimensioned to balance speakers and live music.
- Microphones tested per speaker before doors open.
- Stagehands routed to keep the corridors clear during the awards.
- Indoor lighting tuned to avoid disturbance to adjacent hotel rooms.
What the client and venue saw.
- Zero microphone failures during the awards.
- Live music carried the dinner mood; DJ closed the party inside the curfew.
- Hotel staff and client got a single production brief and a single technical lead.
