Bold LED ideas for event planners

New innovation in LED screen technology is helping elevate event design to levels that dazzle audiences like never before.

In the evolving world of event production, LED is no longer just a screen – it’s a design feature that can completely transform a space.

To inspire planners to think differently about what’s possible, audiovisual production company AV1 has created a series of LED concepts that showcase how curves, cubes, columns and corners can be used in fresh, impactful ways.

Here are four standout designs, each crafted to push creative boundaries and show how LED can enhance storytelling, shape the stage and captivate audiences.

Panorama: The immersive curve

Panorama is a seamless, ultrawide curved LED display that wraps around the stage to create a cinematic visual experience. It is perfect for big branding moments, multi-speaker sessions and high-production conferences where you want content to flow across the full width of the room.

Halo: The 360-degree experience

Halo is a suspended circular LED structure that gives the classic jumbotron a futuristic glow-up. It is ideal for in-the-round setups or when audience engagement needs to happen from all angles. Halo adds drama, clarity and dimension without taking up floor space.

Gateway: Layered depth and dimension

This setup blends traditional rectangular screens with vertical LED pillars to create a modern, sculptural stage design. The result is a clean, dynamic look that’s versatile across a range of events, including keynotes, panel discussions and product reveals.

Tall LED columns flank a central screen to frame the stage with confidence and style. It’s ideal for leadership summits, broadcasts and fireside chats where focus needs to stay on the message while still creating visual impact.

Exploring possibilities

Each of these designs gives event planners a springboard for thinking beyond a flat screen. These aren’t fixed templates – they’re starting points for creative collaboration.

The goal is to spark new ideas and show what’s possible when LED becomes part of the conversation early in the design process.

Whether you’re planning a large-scale conference or an intimate gathering, incorporating LED as a design element, not just a display, can elevate the experience.

“At AV1, we see LED as more than just a screen – it’s a storytelling tool,” says Nigel Mintern, producer, AV1.

“With innovations such as curved panels, suspended structures and sculptural formats, we’re helping event planners reimagine what’s possible.

“It’s about turning spaces into experiences, creating visual moments that spark emotion, and designing stages that connect with audiences. The wow factor isn’t just in the tech – it’s in how creatively we use it.”
