Our team are working hard onsite at Olympia getting things ready for PLASA London next week.

The halls looked very empty when we arrived, and things are already looking quite different...

IPS don't have a stand at the show, but we are supporting various others behind the scenes. We'll be about at the show next week, and looking forward to catching up with everyone.

- 900W White LED engine
- 40,000 Lumen output
- 5.5deg to 50deg zoom range

A tiny glimpse into what our Lighting department actually looks like! 🤩

Behind the warehouse doors, our team work with top Lighting Designers, venues and organisers, deploying our extensive fixture range to create the exact look our clients need - from moving intelligent lighting and IP-rated external rigs, to dimming, control, and everything in between.

Plus, when a project calls for it, we bring in support from our Rigging and Power departments to deliver the full solution.

A big investment means bigger beams!💡

This summer we added 100 Ayrton RawBeam 350s to our hire stock, one of the most talked-about fixtures in the industry right now, delivering laser-sourced power with a huge zoom range and IP65 rating for outdoor use.

Pictured (L-R), David Martin from Ambersphere Solutions, alongside IPS Managing Director Karl and IPS Hire Director Rael, of course we had to snap a moment to celebrate!

As Rael put it, "It was great to welcome David to IPS to celebrate this new stock arriving. Thanks to the team at Ambersphere for their support in getting these fixtures into our hire range. They've already proven popular, topping our enquiry list before they'd even landed."

Alexandra Palace Summer Series 2026 🎡

It was an immense privilege to return to Alexandra Palace Park last month to deliver our PR15 stage for this iconic event series.

Sitting at the foot of a steep incline, the build is always a serious challenge, but one our team has got down to a fine art year after year.

A big shout out our amazing team, that ensured this stage was built, safe, and ready to handle the weekend's line-up.
