Boasting a fully booked show floor, PLASA Focus Leeds will feature 150+ brands in pro audio, AV, lighting, rigging, and staging. Attendees will have the chance to closely examine new products and engage in face-to-face discussions with potential suppliers.

Lighting professionals can look forward to meeting Ambersphere, Avolites, ChamSys, CHAUVET Professional, Entedi, ETC, GLP UK, Prolight, Robe UK, TMB, and Vari-Lite. Top quality pro audio is also on offer from Audio-Technica, Bose Professional, d&b audiotechnik, EM Acoustics, Funktion One, JBL Professional, KV2 Audio, Martin Audio, NEXO, Shure UK and Wharfedale Pro.

Heavyweights in rigging will also be in attendance, such as Alustage, Area Four Industries, ChainMaster, Doughty Engineering, Rigging Services, Rope and Rigging, Triple E, and UK Rigging.

The highly-rated programme, sponsored by Vectorworks, will run throughout the show, packed with sessions to help visitors advance their careers and navigate the industry. With last year's program featuring sessions on sustainability, lighting and sound design, and careers in rigging, this year's program is set to be equally enlightening.

PLASA Focus Leeds also offers a variety of interactive experiences, including hands-on product training and powerful audio demonstrations. These opportunities are ideal for both seasoned professionals looking to enhance their skills and newcomers seeking an introduction to professional products. Further details about the 2024 program will be unveiled in the upcoming weeks.

PLASA's head of events, Sophie Atkinson, comments, "The past year has been remarkable for the live sector, marked by events such as Eurovision and the Coronation. And where better to celebrate these achievements than at one of the industry's favourite shows? Leeds is renowned for its friendly atmosphere, so whether you're an old-hand or a new-starter, you'll be warmly welcomed to the show."

PLASA Focus Leeds will take place from May 14-15 at Royal Armouries.
