Glastonbury Festival stages equipped with ChamSys

At this year’s edition of the Glastonbury Festival, ChamSys’ MagicQ MQ500M Stadium - introduced during the pandemic in 2020 - was the house desk at seven stages, including the Park Stage (supplied by SWG Events) where Ed Warren used it to run Four Tet’s headline show, and the Acoustic Stage (supplied by Fineline Lighting) where Patrick Sollitt lit headliners Paul Heaton and Jacqui Abbott.

The MagicQ MQ500M was used to support more than just music acts. At the Circus Big Top stage, James Loudon relied on the console to run fourteen hours of preprogrammed shows for thirty different acts every day of the festival. Other stages that featured the Magic MQ500M as the house desk were the BBC Introducing, Silver Hayes, Sonic & Lonely Hearts Club, and The Unfariground Flying Bus, which was made of two convoy buses.

The ChamSys MagicQ MQ80 served as the house desk at the WOW Stage, The Hive and Left Field, which celebrated “20 years of pop and politics” with headliners Billy Brag, Yard Act, and Yola. When they weren’t serving as house desks, ChamSys consoles could be found throughout the festival, brought in by LDs like David Howard (MQ80) for Hoosiers at the Avalon Stage, Will Thomas (MQ60) for Bonobo at West Holts, and Brian Kelly (MQ70) for Caribou also at West Holts.
