The largest beach party in Northern Europe has once again exceeded expectations. The Palmesus festival, held by the sea in the Norwegian city of Kristiansand, has delivered a large-scale show where music, the natural environment, and visual production merged into an unforgettable experience.
This year’s edition stood out for its impeccable lighting design, which took the staging to another level thanks to a careful selection of cutting-edge equipment and technical solutions.

Behind this proposal lies the joint work of the festival’s technical teams and the specialized support from SeeSound, which provided consulting, guidance, and cutting-edge technology to achieve a stunning result.
Spanish presence: Carlos Torrijos, special guest at Palmesus
As part of this commitment to high-quality stage design, SeeSound promoted the participation of Carlos Torrijos, one of the leading figures in lighting design in Spain. Founder of La Fábrica de Luz, vice president of AAI, and with more than three decades of experience in theatre, opera, musicals, and light festivals, Torrijos travelled to Norway as a special guest, sharing insights with the festival team and exploring new ways to apply technology to artistic creation.
During the meeting, they addressed key industry topics such as the creative integration of lighting systems, the technical challenges of large outdoor spaces, and the importance of international collaboration between designers and manufacturers.
SeeSound, beyond distribution
With this initiative, SeeSound strengthens its role as an active agent in promoting Spanish talent across Europe and in building bridges between technology and art. The Palmesus festival has become an exceptional platform to show how good lighting can elevate a show into a total sensory experience.
