First impressions count - and in the world of events, your entrance sets the tone for everything that follows. A creatively designed entryway not only welcomes guests but builds excitement, communicates your brand, and immerses attendees in your event narrative from the moment they arrive.
At Connected Event Group, we use cutting-edge AV technology to transform entrances into high-impact, immersive experiences that go far beyond basic signage. Whether you're hosting a corporate gala, product launch, expo, or VIP experience, here are just a few ideas to take your event entrance to the next level:
Draw attendees into the event space with dynamic LED archways or infinity tunnels. These eye-catching structures can display animated visuals, sponsor branding, or thematic content that evolves as guests walk through. Perfect for high-energy openings or futuristic brand activations.
Use camera sensors and AI tech to create LED walls that react to movement. As guests approach, your screen could “wake up,” display a personalised welcome message, or animate in response to their gestures - adding an element of surprise and interaction.
Transform plain surfaces like entry walls, ceilings or columns with projection mapping. Set the scene with moving visuals, countdowns, or storytelling elements that hint at what’s inside the event - no printed backdrops needed.
Ideal for exhibitions or retail activations, interactive "lift and learn" displays at the entrance can showcase physical products on plinths that trigger digital content on nearby screens when picked up - instantly engaging curious guests.
Pair ambient lighting and surround sound with video content or voiceovers to immerse guests in a specific mood or brand story. For example, a rainforest-themed gala might start with a misted doorway, natural lighting effects and surround bird calls - before revealing the main event space.
Make even your registration area feel premium. Our touchscreens, digital lecterns, and sleek LED panels can display event logos, personalised greetings, sponsor branding, and live countdowns to create a seamless tech-forward welcome.
Your entrance isn’t just a pathway - it’s an opportunity to excite, impress and immerse. Our team works closely with clients to design custom AV features that are tailored to your venue, audience and event goals.
