Two sold-out shows. Over 21,000 Girlguiding members. One huge day at Wembley!

Earlier this month, Girlguiding's Big Gig 2026 took over the OVO Arena Wembley bringing together Guides, Rangers and their leaders for a day of live music.

With performances from JLS, Scouting For Girls, The Wanted 2.0, Aston Merrygold, Kerry Ellis and more, the event delivered two shows packed with music and energy.

We were pleased to be involved in this year's production, supporting our friends at Lighthouse Events with a complete audio package comprised of an L-Acoustics L2 PA with flown KS28s, DiGiCo Quantum Series consoles, Shure RF and IEMs, and a d&b audiotechnik wedge and sidefill package, including audio engineers and system techs.

A fantastic event to be part of, and a brilliant opportunity to see thousands of young people enjoying live music together.

Congratulations to Girlguiding and everyone involved in making it happen!

The audience sees the show. The crew sees everything it took to get there.

The prep. The programming. The equipment checks. The rehearsals. The load-ins. The soundchecks. And usually a fair amount of problem-solving along the way.

It's the part of live production that most people never see, but it's also the part we love being involved in.

Whether we're supporting a production from our studios or heading out on the road, helping get a show ready is what Subfrantic is all about.

What’s the first thing you look for when choosing a rehearsal space?

Is it the size of the room? Easy load-in? Equipment availability? Location? Parking? Or simply having a team around who understands live production?

We’ve spent years developing Subfrantic around the needs of artists, engineers and production teams when preparing for a show or tour.

But we're interested to know what matters most to you.

Let us know in the comments.

Proud to be part of the L-Acoustics Rental Network.

Our relationship with L-Acoustics has been an important part of Subfrantic’s growth, with their systems supporting projects of all shapes and sizes across our live production work.

Being part of the Rental Network means joining a global community of professional audio providers built around high standards, technical expertise and access to L-Acoustics technology.

For our clients, it strengthens our ability to provide L-Acoustics solutions for productions both here in the UK and further afield, backed by a wider network when projects take us on the road.

We’re proud to be part of it and looking forward to what comes next.

Back on the road with Justin Hayward for the second year running!

Once again we've been supporting Justin Hayward's team on their UK tour, supplying racks and stacks for some of the larger venues on the run.

Over the past couple of weeks, our L-Acoustics Kara II system has been put to work at Aylesbury Waterside Theatre and Southend Cliffs Pavilion.

Taking a feed from the touring console into our P1 processor, we ran the system over a redundant AVB network, using LS10 switches and LA12X amplified controllers.

It's great to continue supporting Justin and his team, providing the audio systems needed to bring the shows to audiences across the UK.

Last week, we headed back to L-Acoustics HQ in Marcoussis, thanks to Core Pro Audio and the team at L-Acoustics.

The main event was getting to hear the new CS1 4 x 21" subwoofer in action, and it certainly didn't disappoint!

We also had the opportunity to explore more of L-Acoustics' latest technology, including L-ISA, LA DJ and the highly anticipated Source Intelligence.

It's always exciting to get hands-on with new developments in pro audio, exchange ideas and catch up with some of our fellow rental companies along the way.

A big thank you to Core Pro Audio and L-Acoustics for having us!

One tour can take you to some very different places.

Bury Tomorrow European run this summer included enormous festival stages at Rock am Ring and Rock im Park, alongside smaller shows in some pretty extraordinary surroundings.

One of the standouts was Schloßbergbühne Kasematten in Graz, Austria, an open-air venue set within the remains of the city's historic fortifications.

Wherever the show lands, the challenge is the same: take a touring production into a new environment and deliver a consistent experience for the band and the audience.

With our own Dave Billings at FOH and a Subfrantic equipment package travelling with the tour, the team had a familiar setup to work from throughout the run.

Not a bad office for the summer.

A rehearsal space should make life easier for the whole production.

At Subfrantic, it’s not simply about providing four walls and a stage.

Our spaces are supported by an extensive rental inventory, an experienced in-house team and the facilities needed to help artists and crews prepare properly before heading out on the road.

Whether you're rehearsing a tour, developing a new show or bringing the full production together for the first time, we're here to help.

Eight speakers. One stereo feed. Come and hear what happens next.

We’re getting ready to welcome POLAR Audio to Subfrantic on 27 October for a live demo of the Areal Upmix Engine.

We’ll be setting up an eight-speaker system, with a left/right Dante feed from the console into the Upmix Engine, so attendees can hear the system working for themselves and explore its potential applications.

If you’re curious about the technology and want the opportunity to hear it in a proper demo environment, come and join us.

Want to hear the Areal Upmix Engine in action?

On 27 October, we’re welcoming the team from POLAR Audio to Subfrantic for a live demonstration of the Areal Upmix Engine.

The session will be an opportunity to hear the system in a real-world setup, explore what it can do and speak directly with the team behind it.

We’ll be running the demo across an eight-speaker system, giving attendees the chance to properly experience the technology rather than simply read about it.

Spaces are limited, so get in touch via [email protected] and we'll send you the details.
