PLASA London Wrap Up Part 2
Updated: Sep 28
Thanks for coming back for Part 2 of our PLASA 2026 Wrap-Up.
If you caught Part 1, you'll know there was A LOT happening on the Entedi stand, from six world debuts to the launch of the Entedi App. But that was only part of the story. Missed Part 1? Catch up here.
In Part 2, we're looking at some of the other standout moments, including four exciting new brand partners, highlights from Claypaky, SRS Group, Hazebase, Martin and Fenix, and the celebrations that marked 10 years of Entedi 🎉
Four New Brands, One Growing Portfolio 🚀
One of the highlights of this year's show was seeing all four of our latest brand additions together on the Entedi stand for the very first time.
Among the newest faces was ELC, and their growing range of networking solutions.
It might not be the flashiest part of a show, but reliable networking is what keeps everything talking to each other.
Visitors got hands-on with dmXLAN, ELC's software platform for configuring, monitoring and troubleshooting complete DMX lighting networks, as well as the dmXLAN SwitchGBx, NodeGBx 8 and NodeHD 24. Together, they showed how a single ecosystem can take much of the headache out of managing increasingly complex lighting networks.
ELC was joined by three fellow newcomers:
Nanlux brought along the impressive Matrix 2500C, a powerful 2500W integrated four-head soft light, alongside the popular Evoke Series of LED spotlights.
Rounding out the display were Nanlite's PavoSlim RGBWW panel lights and FC Series spotlights. We weren't surprised to see that everyone loves them just as much as we do! 😍
Moving on from film and broadcast lighting, Triton Blue demonstrated their IP65 weather-ready line-up, including the battery-powered Hydro Series, the Kosmos Series architectural and stage wash range, the Aqua 180 outdoor LED PAR and the Helios 700 RGBWW blinder.
In a part of the world where the forecast can change three times before lunch, it's easy to see why the range proved popular. ⛈️
Together, these four additions mark another exciting step forward for Entedi, expanding our offering across lighting control and data distribution, professional imaging, film, television and broadcast, while giving customers access to even more industry-leading technology.
But enough about partnerships. Let's get to the part everyone loves: the kit.
Big Beams, Big Throws
Joining the recently launched B-EYE range, was the Claypaky Arolla Aqua Long-Throw family.
Seeing the Arolla Aqua S-LT, M-LT, LT and HP side by side made it easy to explore and compare the different outputs and throw distances. Whatever the application, the message was clear: the Arolla LT family is built to deliver serious performance when distance matters.
And then there was Ultimo Sharpy. Fast-moving, bright and unmistakably Sharpy, it spent three days reminding everyone why the original became an industry icon in the first place.
Over at SRS Group, there was plenty of new products to explore. Highlights included the Measuring LED, a feature designed to provide instant load visibility at each breaker through a simple colour-changing indicator system.
Also attracting attention were Fuze, the PLASA Award for Innovation-nominated four-channel adjustable electronic fuse, the Spin and Spin-e switchpacks, and the 2nd Gen ADH Controller.
Safe to say, power distribution isn't as boring as it sounds.
If you visited our stand, there's a very good chance you encountered some haze and fog. Actually, scratch that. A lot of haze and fog.
The Hazebase Touring2 was a crowd favourite, supported by the Bazer and the Cube, ensuring there was never a shortage of atmosphere.
The Martin line-up was another big draw with:
The challenge wasn't finding something to like. The challenge was convincing yourself you didn't need all three.🙈
Fenix brought along the Megara 300 lifting tower. It may not produce beams, haze or flashy effects, but it proved just how important heavy-lifting equipment is behind the scenes.
From truss and LED screens to speakers and lighting fixtures, the Megara 300 helps crews get equipment safely into position and ready for showtime.
Celebrating 10 Years of Entedi 🎉
Amid all the launches, demos and catch-ups, we also took a moment to mark a decade of Entedi.
What started in 2016 as a vision to bring industry-leading brands and expert support to the entertainment technology market has grown into a trusted distribution partner serving customers across live events, theatre, film, TV, broadcast and installation.
To mark the occasion, we raised a glass (and enjoyed a cupcake or two) with the customers, suppliers, partners and friends who have been with us along the way.
Looking back over the last decade, we're incredibly proud of how far we've come. From expanding our portfolio to supporting projects across the UK and Ireland, our growth has been made possible by the loyalty, support and trust of our customers and partners.
So, to everyone who has played a part in the Entedi story so far, thank you.
Here's to the next ten years. 🥂
