Arnhem Expanding Watson goes on a world tour with British band Coldplay. The company will power the parties. Among other things, by means of a special dance floor on which the audience generates energy during the dance. In July, Coldplay will be at the Johan Cruyff Arena.
According to co-founder Bart Hendricks, concerts can be energized in a green and sustainable way. “Especially in the past, the available power was insufficient. Generators are often used. But now concerts can also be organized in an emission-free manner.”
Because the audience is dancing on a private floor, Watson’s batteries are being charged. In addition to the dance floor, party visitors can also sit on a bike that recharges the batteries. Wattsun previously provided sustainable energy to festivals like Mysteryland and the Awakenings in this way. The company’s batteries are also modular, allowing capacity to be expanded by stacking the units.
The tour, called Music Of The Spheres, across the UK and the rest of Europe kicks off May 17 in Coimbra, Portugal. There is a lot of interest in Coldplay parties in the Netherlands. Initially, the British band will hold two concerts in Amsterdam, but soon this number was expanded to four performances. All tickets are now sold out.
