Liverpool-based event production services and AV technology specialists MSP Global deployed their full inventory of NEXO GEO M at a very special post-match ceremony as Everton’s Senior Men’s Team said farewell to its home of 133 years, Goodison Park.
Next season, the team takes up residence at the Hill Dickenson Stadium at Liverpool’s Bramley-Moore Dock, a brand new 52,000-seat stadium which is, incidentally, equipped with a NEXO sound system installed by T.G.Baker Sound (Ltd).
Taking place immediately after the 2-0 Premier League win over Southampton, the ceremony featured current players and Everton legends, along with live music and specially curated big-screen content, all hosted by award-winning television presenter Gethin Jones and former world champion boxer Tony Bellew.
For a veteran of many events, this one was particularly special for MSP Global founder and MD Colin Reader. “We have a 25-year association with Everton and have been privileged to assist with many events at Goodison Park over the years, but this one is obviously the most poignant.
“It was also probably the most challenging, with just 15 minutes available for us to equip 3 stages, wheeling on a total of 16 stacks of GEOM10/MSUB15 and GEOM12/MSUB18, powered by 10 x NXAMPMk2s with NEXO P12s for monitors.
“In all 120 people were involved in the set-up which was ready right on time.”
The emotional departure from Goodison Park serves as a reminder of the rich history and traditions that define Everton Football Club. As the team moves forward, guided by the spirit of the stadium known affectionately as the Grand Old Lady, the future holds promise and excitement for what lies ahead.
