GLOBAL: Since 2001, the Parnelli Awards have celebrated the most pioneering and influential professionals, companies, and products in the live event sector — earning a reputation among many as the “Oscar” of the industry.

This year, on January 24th, GLP’s JDC Burst 1 picked up the top award in the lighting category for “Indispensable Technology”.

Mark Ravenhill, GLP’s North American based Director, stated, “The JDC Burst 1 represents a solid evolution in the history of GLP’s market-leading strobe technology. To be recognised with this award, chosen by a public vote, represents the highest level of gratitude.”

Featuring the very latest technology and offering a plethora of features inside its IP-rated housing, JDC Burst 1 has already found a home on leading tours and productions around the world, including Post Malone (LD Rob Sinclair), Las Vegas F1 Grand Prix (LD Tom Sutherland), Adriatique (LD Jelle Stoffels), Imagine Dragons (LD Mitchell Schellenger) and many more.

“Everyone at GLP is immensely proud of receiving this award,” continued Ravenhill. “And we would like to thank all our partners, specifiers, dealers, programmers, technicians and everyone who voted for the JDC Burst 1.

“GLP would also like to congratulate the legendary production and lighting designer, Marc Brickman, for his Visionary Award, and also thank the Parnelli Award Committee for once again hosting a memorable evening.”
