MPH Warehouse Technicians 🚨 Ensuring equipment performance on the floor, delivering peace of mind on tour.
(1/2) - Our moving light pros working with industry veteran and service wizard PJ - A faulty flower effect module on one of our Robe Spiiders needing replacement. Light work for our flannel donning wiz.
Parts on hand meant this unit was back up and running to full effect before being sent back into the wild. Worm drive zoom lubricated while we`re at it.
(3/4) - Our loom techs ensuring tight wraps and solid connections. 6 to 24 pole Weiland, Tru1, Socapex and adapters to feed your mind`s desire; the crew ensure cable is free of nicks, labelled and in-date. Ready to take us from rack to header, no pin left un-checked.

Radical production led by:
Creative Director - Pete Abbott
Production Designer - @mattpitman @pixelmappers Production Manager - Ross Maynard
Should we post some BTS for these sorts of shows?
This was Omar Apollo at the Hordern Pavilion last week 🔥🔥

We`re serious about networking. Especially Jake..
It`s difficult to find a lighting system these days without a network backbone. We`ve chosen Luminex for all shows as it has proven to be robust, reliable and easy to use in all applications!

Guess who’s back!? We were on the go all last year (and the year before and the year before🤪) and barely had time to drop by the ol’ socials and someone said ‘if it’s not on Instagram, it didn’t happen’ so.. here we are (for now. probably.) 🎉
For your viewing pleasure, enjoy a sample of some of the things we’ve been up to since some time in the distant past 😂

With Parrtjima Australia - A Festival in Light done and dusted for another year, we want to take a moment to thank the teams at AGB Events and NT Major Events Company for their work in ensuring the event went ahead as scheduled, during a time when almost no events are happening. It`s a credit to their hard work and professionalism and needless to say, has meant a lot to us and our employees.
What can we say about the lighting design? Each year we think it`s the best and each year, Richard Neville and the amazing artists involved wow us all over. It really is a jaw dropping display and it continues to be a pleasure to work with the entire team at Mandylights. You can bet there`s always something beautiful, exciting and creative on the horizon with them!
The two old blokes we sent on the job, Matt Hansen and Michael Parsons, were fortunately assisted by some younger and fitter lads, Justin and Michael from JAM Productions (Cairns), on the load-in and it definitely wouldn`t have happened without them and the assistance of the local crew. You`re all absolute legends ❤
It`s not an entirely great feeling to post about doing a show during such a tough time for our industry, we know so many companies and individuals are struggling to stay afloat and we hope we can all go back to the jobs we love soon. With the likelihood of this show being our only show for quite awhile, its theme of lifting spirits is certainly a good one and the event getting off the ground proves shows can happen and that there is light at the end of the tunnel.
We feel very fortunate to be involved in such a spectacular event, and those feelings are tenfold this year.

Dante “Dobby” Hansen Lagalla
Food Safety Officer
Happy 8th birthday to our Food Safety Officer, Dante “Dobby” Hansen Lagalla. Dante started his career at #mphaus in 2010 and he shows commitment to his role by never missing any food related event. From packed lunches to the sound of the fridge door opening, Dante is there to sniff, taste and stare, to ensure all items meet the company’s food safety standards.
Here’s to many more years of scabbing, scrounging and bin raiding in the name of food safety.
