May 8th marked 80 years since the end of the Second World War in Europe, and Waddesdon Manor enlisted the help of the team at YES Events to light up their anniversary events. 

We spoke to project manager Adam Nicholls about his use of ROXX Neo units as part of the event.

“We used a total of 6 ROXX NEO fixtures for this setup. Five were focused on the manor itself, each fitted with a medium lens to give a consistent and even wash across the façade. The sixth was used to light the flag, utilising the fixture’s native beam angle for a tighter, more defined look.

The aim was to enhance the architectural presence of the manor and flag as part of the overall lighting design on the day. The NEOs were chosen to complement the venue’s existing house lighting and allow for dynamic colour changes throughout the evening.

From a technical point of view, they were incredibly straightforward to deploy — compact, powerful, and very easy to control via wireless DMX. The output is impressive for their size and weight, and they performed really well across the night.”
