The electronic music festival Nocturnal Wonderland illuminates its XX anniversary with Elation

More than five hundred units of different lighting fixtures from Elation Professional have formed the lighting system of the recent edition of the nocturnal Wonderland electronic music festival, that this year commemorated its twentieth anniversary in the Californian town of San Bernardino.

The lighting company Visions Lighting has been responsible for the lighting assembly on the Queen's Grounds and Sunken Garden stages, created on the occasion of the twentieth anniversary of the electronic music festival Nocturnal Wonderland, organized by Insomniac Events, which was held at the San Manuel Amphiteater in the city of San Bernardino (California).

The lighting design has been done SJ Lighting, con el reconocido diseñador Steve Lieberman como responsable técnico y sistemas de Elation Professional, marketed in Spain by visualsvisual.

"We've been working with the Nocturnal Wonderland festival for over ten years," explains Todd Roberts., of Visions Lighting- and for its twentieth edition Insomniac Events wanted a spectacular and very dynamic lighting for these two scenarios, as well as rivaling that of the main stage, Labyrinth. I think we have done a great job of production and lighting design and the visual objective has been more than achieved.".

The Queen's Grounds stage has had a large truss structure behind the stage, on which different Led video screens have been installed, with a circular central screen and eight rectangular ones that started from the center to the sides of the stage to give a feeling of sun's rays.

To mark the perimeter of these Led screens have been used 64 Led bars Elation Lumina Strip, that have ten warm white Led of 7 Watts (for a total of 70 watts of brightness) and individual control over each Led.

Also, and in an alternate configuration, have been installed 76 Protron 3K Led strobe units (with a luminosity of 80.000 Lumens) and equal number of units of the Led Eled QW Strip bar (with eighteen RGBW Led of 5 Watts, for a total power per bar of 90 Watts) and individual control over each Led of this manufacturer.

In the part of the stage closest to the public have been installed 42 Elation Colour Chorus units 72, an RGBA Led bar of 180 cm in length and with 288 Led of 3 Watts (for a total power of 864 Watts) and individual control over hue, saturation and intensity for each Led.

The entire truss structure of the Queen's Grounds stage has been bathed in various colors during the festival thanks to 120 Elation Level Q7 units (with seven RGBW Leds of 15 Watts, for a total of 105 watts of power).

In addition, 46 Moving heads type Beam Platinum BX from this manufacturer (with Philips Platinum 17RA lamp 350 watts of consumption and a luminosity of 20.000 Lumens) provided dynamism and tracer effects to a stunning lighting design by Steve Lieberman and Max Robin.

The festival's Sunken Garden stage was set up inside a large tent, with an installation of Led screens of 6 mm and a large number of lighting fixtures from Elation Professional, to create a prominent area within the Nocturnal Wonderland festival with a design by Brandon Dunning.

Among the latter were deployed 44 hybrid moving heads (Beam + Spot + Wash) Platinum SBX, with two different optical systems and Philips Platinum 17RA lamp with varied visual effects, as well as 24 Platinum Beam 5R Extreme moving head units used for tracer and 60 of the Pair Led Elation Epar TRI providing general lighting in the tent.
