LED tunnel
Walk-through LED entrance built for big festival gates, expo arrivals, and retail launch corridors that need visible media from the first queue turn.
Festival desks pick Light Tunnel XL when the entry must feel like a brand film you can walk through.

Light Tunnel XL is planned around the things that usually break an entrance in South Africa: wind on open approaches, dust in cable joins, venue power limits, and guest lanes that bunch at the photo moment. Each build note starts with the main problem, then ties ballast, cable routes, media brightness, and marshal position to that problem. The result is a tunnel brief a festival desk or mall ops team can use on site, not a render with missing site logic.
Name the main problem in the opening line. If the problem is wind, we keep ballast and cut-off on the same brief. If the problem is dust, we publish the seal card. If the problem is queue psychology, we put lane notes next to the brand moment. Light Tunnel XL assumes Highveld dust, coastal wind, mall ops windows, and load-shedding, not a fantasy clean-power stage.
Do the first night check with content live and the public route marked. A bright tunnel can pull people off the intended lane if the final bay sits too close to security search, merch, or a scanner desk. For Cape Town wind or a dry Gauteng field, the close-out notes should cover panel wipe-down, cable covers, and which side takes the morning sun.
The page points to the bits crews ask for first: modular bay length options, the brand media map, the cable discipline card, and dust seal notes for exposed joins. It also separates install actions from care actions, so a day crew and an overnight team are not hunting through one long document. Measurements, power cues, and use cases stay short enough to read during load-in.
Match the tunnel to the venue route before locking artwork scale. A long mall passage behaves differently from a festival entry on gravel, so lane width, sightline, and distro position need to be read together. If you use our contact form, send the main problem, the city, the required length, and whether the issue is power, wind, dust, or queue build-up.
Start with the approach surface and the weather side. Highveld dust gets into exposed connections, coastal gusts test unsupported edges, and shopping centre access windows can force a split install across day and night shifts. Light Tunnel XL notes assume those conditions, along with load-shedding risk and the need to restart media cleanly after a power event.
Queue behaviour matters as much as the LED hardware. If guests stop in the first third for photos, the lane can jam back into scanners or VIP split points, so the notes should mark pause zones and keep marshals near the brightest face. For national touring work, record which ballast method, seal treatment, and power layout were used at each stop so the next city does not rebuild from memory.

Start with the main problem, then add city, tunnel length, and whether this is a festival gate or retail arrival run. Use our contact form to flag wind exposure, dust load, mall trading hours, or generator limits before artwork and bay count are discussed.
