For a festival of this size, the Mountain Truss System is a perfect solution, offering the load bearing capacity and footprint to accommodate the most production-heavy acts. This system stood 70′ tall and was configured to\u00a080′ wide with 20′ wide audio bays. The main performance area offered nearly 50′ of clearance, and 2 “floating” VIP risers<\/a> were installed on-stage for exclusive viewing.<\/p>\n
