Top acts like Bob Sinclar, Fedde Le Grand, Nicky Romero, Westbam and NERVO entertained and excited the crowds on eight large stages and 30 music trucks with further performances provided next to the festival site.
Nicky Romero and NERVO performed their acts on the main stage next to the Mythenquai (the former site was blocked by construction works), which were supported by a large light spectacle and a big live laser show. Acts on two further stages the Bürkliplatz and at the concert hall were also supported with many laser light systems from Laserworld.
Altogether Laserworld used laser light systems with a total output power of up to 200W, which were controlled by professional live laser light operators (Norb, Richu and Mane).
It was a very peaceful event and the good weather was very helpful to create a great mood, especially as the motto of this year's Street Parade was Dance for Freedom. This appeal was conceived for personal freedom without conventions or pressures and with mutual tolerance and respect. Obviously there was little to do for the police and action forces without any major incidents.
The laser light projectors were controlled by Phoenix Showcontroller Phoenix4 LIVE as well as Pangolin BEYOND.
