Ibiza Party at Motel Kamenec: Sand, Beats, and Tech That Withstood Adverse Weather

The third summer event in a row brought the unmistakable atmosphere of the party island to Motel Kamenec— Ibiza Party, a two-day dance event packed with top Slovak DJ names. This year’s edition was all about striking visuals, state-of-the-art sound, and a hefty dose of sand: 200 tons were brought in to create a unique dance area with a true summer vibe.

In addition to the main stage—which, as in previous events, was powered by our trusted Meyer Sound speakers—we also provided full sound reinforcement for the second stage. For this, we deployed the flagship VIO line array system from Italian manufacturer dBTechnologies, delivering powerful, crystal-clear sound even under challenging outdoor conditions.

The core visual element was a nearly two-ton structure suspended directly above the dancefloor. This framework supported a Gloshine outdoor LED screen, high-powered Cameo OTOS W6 lights, and FOS pixel bars. Thanks to its symmetrical design, the structure commanded attention from every angle—whether viewed from the audience or the stage. At its apex, 16 PAR 64 spotlights created an impressive visual effect, especially in drone shots from above. The main stage featured a widescreen Absen A3pro LED display, split into two panoramic screens measuring 8×2 m and 8×2.5 m. The lighting design incorporated linear “batteries,” each fitted with eight fixtures of the same model, creating a layered lighting environment. We used Robe Pointe, LEDbeam 150,  Spiider a Cameo Pixbar 650pro. The silhouette effect of performers was accentuated by the powerful Robe Esprite backlight.

Despite a four-hour downpour on Saturday night, the entire production ran without any technical issues. Thanks to the use of outdoor-rated lighting fixtures and meticulous waterproofing of all electrical components, the technology remained fully operational throughout the event.
