Lighting firm illuminates paths to guide the way for festival-goers at Glasto!

A Burton business is revelling in the limelight after supplying lamps to the prestigious Glastonbury Festival.

Lyon Lighting, based in Wellington Street, supplied 1,200 LED golfball lamps to festoon the walkways and illuminate the paths for thousands of audience members at the famous five-day music festival in Somerset which finished on Sunday night.

The order for the 'green' lights came out of the blue – an inquiry on the firm's website from the festival organisers a few weeks ago. The firm quoted the price and the order was confirmed.

“We delivered the lights direct to the festival just before it opened,” said proprietor Will Chisholm.

“I watched the festival on television and was delighted to see our lights being used. I was honoured and proud to have supplied the lights for such a great occasion.”

The lights supplied were LED eco-friendly ones that are energy efficient and save money. In addition, Lyon Lighting supplied another 300 festoon lights to put around one of the stalls and make it attractive to festival-goers.

Lyon Lighting originally supplied products just through a website to customers both in the UK and across the world. Last Autumn the company opened its shop at the Greenline Business Park where customers can pop in and see some of the products from an increased range of 20,000 items that can be supplied.
