GLP innovations shine at Panorama Festival

Panorama Festival is one of the international hotspots for electronic music. The multi-day event takes place in the CAVE DEL DUCA in Lecce from 14 to 16 August 2025, 15,000 fans celebrated to pounding technobeats – accompanied by a spectacular lighting design featuring more than 220 GLP fixtures. Responsible for both stage and lighting design was Roberto Colabufo. All lighting equipment was supplied by Lucidiscena, which had just recently invested in 200 GLP Creos along with 150 JDC Burst 1 and 150 WildBar 16.

The technical implementation was handled by Punto Musica under the direction of Claudio Carulli.

Programmer and operatorwas Jerry Roberto Romani, one of Italy’s most experienced MA operators with more than 35 years at the top level of international productions. On the impressive Main Stage, 64 Creos, 68

WildBar 16 and 96 JDC Burst 1 were deployed – all recent innovations from GLP. “These fixtures made the stage design perfect for the festival,” says Pino Loconsole of Lucidiscena. “The JDC Burst 1 filled the entire roof with immense firepower. The WildBar 16 traced the LED screenswith razor-sharp lines of light, and the Creos created massive side light arrays with effects I had never seen before.”

CREOS

The Creos were arranged in two blocks of 32 fixtures left and right. Their large luminous surface enabled striking pixel graphics that integrated seamlessly into the overall design. “At low intensity they deliver subtle colour and pixel effects that don’t interfere with the camera image – and when more punch is needed, they transform into extremely tight, piercing beams or a powerful wash,” explains Loconsole. Lighting designer Roberto Colabufo is equally enthusiastic: “My aim was to create a project that stood apart from classic standards and at the same time could stand up to the visual dominance of the LED screens. With Creos, WildBar 16 and JDC Burst 1 from GLP, that’s exactly what we achieved.” Pino Loconsole is convinced he made the right choice with GLP’s latest products. “GLP already set new industry standards with the JDC1 and impression X4, revolutionising the way light is designed on stage. Others have tried to follow – but GLP remains ahead,” he emphasises.
