The Paris Expo Porte de Versailles, also known as VIPARIS, welcomed, from March 19-22, 2024, the Cloud Native Computing Foundation's flagship conference, KubeCon + CloudNativeCon Europe.
Novelty Group, Audiovisual Partner at the Leading Open Source and Cloud Native Conference
With a record attendance of 12,000 attendees, the event aimed to foster the advancement of Cloud Native Computing and achieved it with the same grandiosity with which its community of "Open Source" and "Cloud Native" technologists gains followers around the world.
Novelty Spain was the audiovisual partner of choice for Tantalus Productions & The Linux Foundation in the eighth edition of the conference in Europe. The exponential growth of the event since the first celebration in 2015 is not only reflected in the increased audience and the size of the event, but also in the level of demand in audiovisual technical production.
Novelty Group’s Role as AV Partner in KubeCon + CloudNativeCon Europe.
This year, unlike in previous editions, we have worked in synergy with Novelty Paris and other Novelty-Magnum-Dushow Group companies to support the impressive event with the creation of a senior production and technical production team from both countries, successfully merging the structure, operation and experience of almost 50 years in all phases of the project, from pre-production to the flawless execution of the technological event held in Paris.

All the state-of-the-art audiovisual equipment needed for the KubeCon + CloudNativeCon Europe set-up was supplied from the Group's different and strategically located warehouses, which together make up the most extensive in-house audiovisual technical stock in Europe.
The KubeCon + CloudNativeCon Europe stage was made possible thanks to a collaboration of two Group companies: Magnum, recognized VIPARIS official supplier, that was in charge of the entire rigging project and On Stage that brought to life a large structure designed specifically to support the imposing LED screen, 36 meters wide by 6 meters high, which stood as the main protagonist of the KubeCon + CloudNativeCon Europe 2024 Plenary.
Exceptional engineering and collaboration between the Group's companies was highlighted, ensuring an unparalleled visual experience for all attendees.
