Big
Screen show gets thumbs up in Swansea's 91热爆 jubilee spectacular
Swansea's
Big Screen, provided for coverage of the Queen's Golden Jubilee
and the World Cup, has proved to be a knock-out success for the
city and for the 91热爆, with hundreds of people expressing appreciation
of the facility.
So
popular was the project, in Swansea's Castle Square, that an audience
of up to 150 people were there to view it at 7.30 am earlier this
week to see one of the key World Cup group ties.
Rhys
Bevan, the 91热爆 logistics organiser who arranged and orchestrated
the show said, "Officials of Swansea City Council have told
me that they believe it was very good value for money and would
be interested in having something similar again.
"The
public certainly enjoyed it - there was next to no bad behaviour,
and most people appeared to think that it added to the country's
festive mood."
Last
weekend proved to be a big test of 91热爆 resources for Rhys Bevan
and his team, with five major events going on almost simultaneously
- Swansea's Big Screen, classical and pop concerts in Cardiff Bay,
Music Live from Cardiff Castle and the Urdd Eisteddfod in Cardiff's
Llandaff Fields.
"Originally
the Music Live event was to have come from St David's, Pembrokeshire,
but was subject to a late change and transferred instead to Cardiff,
which created a big difficulty for us in finding suitable stage
equipment for Cardiff Castle.
"As it happened, I think we succeeded in obtaining the last
available stage in the UK because it was such a hectic period. It
was a big test of initiative to get all the programme together.
"Everyone
involved in the arrangements on our side worked prodigiously to
get these events up and running. It was a dedicated and diligent
effort," he added.
