Fabric Touring Event Structure

At Base Structures UK, we were honored to contribute to the creation of the mesmerizing venue of “The Lion King”, a musical immersive activation for Disney: The Castle, in Riyadh – a collaborative effort with Balich Wonder Studio and Disney Concerts.

“The Castle” is a musical experience that brings you closer than ever to the iconic music of Disney’s beloved animated worlds. At this magical family festival, celebrate music from Disney’s most popular animated films through captivating performances in immersive musical worlds and exhilarating concerts performed live on stage in front of the towering Disney Castle! 

Our Solution

Tasked with providing fabric sails for a touring structure, our team seamlessly integrated with the client’s design, we provided essential engineering and detailed design assistance, leading to the precise patterning and fabrication of fabric membranes, complete with crucial cables and tensioners – in a tight 7-week timeline. Our site supervisors flew to Riyadh, ensuring a smooth on-site installation and briefing the client’s team on demounting procedures.

Results

This success story was made possible through close collaboration with our partners, Balich Wonder Studio and Disney Concerts. Together, we transformed the venue of “The Lion King” into an immersive musical experience against the enchanting backdrop of the Disney Castle.
