This year's edition of Prolight + Sound Shanghai (PLSS) will once again live up to the exceedingly high expectations of the professional AV, lighting, and entertainment industry. Taking place in the Shanghai New International Expo Centre from October 10th -- 13th 2019, the fair will offer an enhanced fringe program to bring participants up to speed on the most current and pressing topics driving a market subject to technological innovation.
