Crafting an Immersive Sensory Feast: Festive Lighting & Effects

The second the lights drop, haze drifts across the floor, and captivating visual effects transform the space. With the holiday season fast approaching, we're spotlighting the Citronic and QTX lighting and effects kit that venues, hire companies and event professionals rely on to create an unforgettable festive atmosphere, from beam-filled ceilings to snow falling indoors.

Bring the timeless mirror ball effect to any venue, without the hassle of an actual mirror ball. 20 × 10W LEDs shine through 42 precision lenses, filling the room with hundreds of moving light beams. The rotating dome adjusts speed and direction with ease, from slow, elegant sweeps to fast, high-energy effects. RGB/WW colour mixing, including a specially tuned warm white, recreates the nostalgic glow of a classic halogen mirror ball while adding vibrant, modern colour to the mix.

• Replaces a mirror ball and spotlight setup with one all-in-one fixture
• 1, 3, 4 or 10 DMX channel modes
• Auto, DMX, Manual, Sound-to-Light and Master/Slave controls
• IR remote control and quick-release Omega clamp included
