GL events Owen Brown showcases its work at summer sporting events

Temporary structure providers GL events Owen Brown completed a number of structure projects at sports events, including the London 2012 Olympics, across the UK this summer.

Russia.Sochi.Park was a 7,700 sq m project with two temporary structures used to showcase Sochi, the host city for the Winter Olympics in 2014.

Attractions at Russia.Sochi.Park included an ice show, music and dance performances and a 4D cinema where visitors experienced a chairlift ride up the snowy Krasnodar mountains.

The ice arena shows were watched by 1,200 people at a time, accommodated in tiered seating at four metres high. The temporary structures specialist also constructed a bridge over the rink.

The 130m-long cinema and exhibition centre was fitted with an opaque PVC covering for complete control of lighting levels.

Also during the Olympics, Owen Brown built Russia’s Olympic House in the heart of London’s Kensington Gardens and a double deck Absolute structure at the Fish Island Riviera, featuring a beach volleyball court.

Owen Brown also completed other projects at Royal Ascot, the Epsom Derby and the British Grand Prix at Silverstone.
