Three days of live music, multiple stages and thousands of festival goers — Another Avenue were back at Forest Fest 2026, providing the camera operation and live pictures that brought the action to the big screens across the festival.
Forest Fest returned to Emo, Co. Laois, from 24–26 July 2026, with the festival moving to a new home at Bee’s Wing Farm as it continues to grow. With multiple stages running throughout the weekend, there was plenty happening across the site. The 2026 line-up featured major acts including James, Madness, Echo & The Bunnymen, Deacon Blue, The Charlatans, The Coronas, The Boomtown Rats, The Undertones and Feeder, alongside a host of Irish and international artists.
Another Avenue provided the camera crews and live production operation for the festival, capturing the action on stage and feeding the pictures directly to the large screens throughout the site. Our camera operators were positioned across the festival, covering performances throughout the weekend and making sure audiences could see the action on the big screens, wherever they were watching from. From the main stage performances and headline acts to the atmosphere and reaction of the crowds, our crews were constantly capturing the action and delivering it live to the screens.
With several stages and performances running across three days, it takes a highly coordinated production operation to keep the pictures moving. Our team worked throughout the weekend, covering the performances and capturing the moments that make Forest Fest such a unique live experience.
The big screens are an important part of the Forest Fest experience, allowing audiences further back from the stage and across the wider festival site to get a close-up view of the performers.
Our experience in live television and multi-camera production means we can bring the same approach to a large-scale music festival with multiple cameras, experienced operators and a live production workflow designed to keep up with the action. Across the three days, our crews captured performances from the various stages and delivered the live pictures to the festival screens, helping connect the audience with what was happening on stage.
