NEW YORK, Mar. 26, 2015 /PRNewswire-iReach/ -- A showbiz legend embraces new technology, audiences are lighting up with the New York Rockettes. The Radio City Music Hall has a new show featuring interactive lighting using LED wristbands called Xylobands putting everyone in the show. The Radio City Rockettes NEW YORK SPRING SPECTACULAR is a brand new production, and the first on Broadway to feature the immersive technology that toured the globe with COLDPLAY and has been lighting up concerts and special events ever since. Each person in the audience become a part of the show, courtesy of the light-up wristbands.

 

 

Radio City is a New York institution for over 80 years, and the Rockettes (celebrating almost 90 years of live entertainment), promise to make 2015 a landmark year for the popular attraction, which has been creating new spectacular shows, and now new interactive experiences, for the sizable tourism industry in New York. If Xylobands can make it everywhere – they can make it in New York City! New York is embracing Xylobands and the exciting new ways that audiences are lit up with the interactive technology.

Xylobands lit up Madison Square Gardens for the NY Knicks season opener show featuring Blue Man Group, and now New York is lighting up all over; the New York RANGERS hockey team will feature the LED wristbands XYLOBANDS at a special game event at the Gardens on April 20, 2015.

TLC Creative / Xylobands USA is the team behind Xylobands and have been lighting people up at festivals, concerts, celebrations, and corporate and motivational events, and now Broadway! Xylobands lit up Madison Square Gardens with the brightest wristbands available! Xylobands are significantly brighter than other wristbands, Xylobands have 360 degrees of visible light, plus an extended light and branding area that are meant to be seen.

Interactive experiences will be a major way that the live entertainment industry will adapt to people staying at home. RFID and interactive wristbands and lanyards are enhancing and energizing live shows in new and exciting ways, and this trend will get deeper and more common in upcoming years.

Comments overheard at previews of the new Rockettes show range from 'the light-up wristbands were really fun' to 'we enjoyed the show and being in the light show was just great!'

Glowballs and Light-Up balloons, as well as new kinds of dimensional LED displays, are bringing new technologies and new experiences in direct connection with guests. TLC Creative has always pushed the envelope of finding new ways to engage and inspire people, and LED lighting and live special effects are areas that the company is famous for. TLC created, designed and built the 360 drop-screen video cylinder show at Staples Center for the Los Angeles Lakers. TLC has been creating video mapping for the Lakers, and for corporate events, since 2000, when the Lakers moved from Inglewood to downtown LA.

Xyloband LANYARDS are the latest new product, designed for trade shows, exhibits, meetings, and conventions or tours, these very long bands of brilliant interactive, live cued lighting effects, are bringing a level of excitement to those industries like never before.

 

 

TLC Creative has produced live special effects and lasers, for Miley Cyrus, Usher, Jennifer Lopez, Coldplay, American Idol, The Voice, Dancing with the Stars, Hell's Kitchen, and creates shows of all kinds from water screens to pyrotechnics, reveals and fog effects and more,

Hmmmmmm wonder if this means new upgraded ones for the next Coldplay Tour....
