Glastonbury again proved to be a busy year for ChamSys with numerous house consoles on stages over the site, with various companies including; Coloursound Experiment, GLS Lighting, South West Ground, Enlightened and Rockin Horse, these stages included:

ThePark Stage

 Along with multiple house consoles across the site, ChamSys were ever popular with touring lighting designers seeing a particular increase in the use of the ChamSys Compact consoles. 

Haydn Cruickshank MD of Coloursound Experiment UK called upon one of Coloursounds new 24 universe MQ80 Compact consoles for Friday headliners Underworld on the West Holts Stage.

ChamSys continued setting an Example across the festival site over the weekend with LD ‘Grum’ bringing his MQ100 Pro2014 console and Playback wing for Example over on the John Peel stage.

As the festival drew to a close on Sunday ChamSys saw more main stage appearances with Catfish and the Bottlemen over on The Other Stage with LD Scotty Galloway with a MQ100 Pro2014 and Playback wing.
