LD Systems and Cameo breathe new life into the Hull Ice Arena
The Hull Ice Arena in Kingston upon Hull, England, is an ice skating and hockey stadium and until 2015 was home to the Hull Stingrays in the Elite Ice Hockey League, the highest ice hockey league in the UK. The British music elite have also played here – from Oasis to Robbie Williams and Ed Sheeran. After Hull Stingrays had to file for bankruptcy in 2015, the Olympic ice rink was used for leisure and semi-professional ice skating for a few years until the arena was temporarily closed in March 2020 and renovated for a seven-figure sum. In addition to a new ice rink and renovated changing rooms and toilet facilities, the Hull Ice Arena has recently also been lit up in new sound and light. JRG Productions relied completely on LD Systems for the PA, while 80 Cameo spotlights are used for the lighting.
