Venue restructure sees new lighting installation by DTS and Zero 88.Area Venezia choose DTS & Zero 88
Area Venezia, the discotheque created by Joe T Vannelli, is one of the most popular names on the European clubbing scene. It was totally restructured in October 2008 by architect Massimo Cadamuro and now features two levels, with one large area and a smaller one. The club is divided into several zones, with a central dance floor surrounded by four elegantly furnished bars (each themed differently) and an art gallery
Above all however, Area Venezia is a disco created by superstar DJ Joe T Vannelli to dance to the best house music around, featuring as resident DJ’s Vannelli himself (last Saturday every month), Gianni Coletti and Fabrizio Gucciardi. Special guests have included Sebastian Ingrosso, Steve Angello, Boy George, Niki Belucci, Christelle and Ricky Montanari, and live performances by Montefiori Cocktail.
When the venue was restructured, new installations included a sound system by Dynacord Alpha Concept and the lighting by DTS and Zero 88. The new lighting system was installed by FG Lighting, with technical supervision by Dario Juka, to a lighting design project by Michele Sgolacchia Of DTS
