Sterling Event Group has expanded its Ayrton lighting inventory with a significant investment in Rivale and EagleStrike fixtures, supplied by Ambersphere Solutions. The latest additions join Sterling’s existing Diablo and white-bodied Mistral fixtures, further strengthening its production fleet.
The investment comes as demand continues to grow for high-performance lighting across corporate events, live productions and outdoor projects. By bringing the latest Ayrton technology into its in-house inventory, Sterling is further enhancing its ability to deliver premium production solutions across a wide range of events.
Supplied by Ambersphere Solutions, the UK’s exclusive distributor for Ayrton, the new fixtures form part of Sterling’s ongoing investment strategy to continually develop its rental inventory with the latest production technology.
Within Sterling’s lighting inventory, the Ayrton Rivale complements the company’s existing range of IP-rated fixtures, delivering higher, more refined output alongside greater creative flexibility. The addition of Ayrton EagleStrike further enhances Sterling’s capabilities for large-scale productions, providing powerful long-throw beam effects for both indoor and outdoor applications, as well as remote followspot functionality.
The investment follows Sterling’s rebrand and relocation to its new headquarters last year, continuing the company’s focus on building one of the UK’s most comprehensive in-house production inventories.
Joe Dowling, Head of Lighting & Asset Strategy, commented: “Our investment strategy is always driven by the requirements of our clients and the need to maintain a modern, versatile inventory. Rivale and EagleStrike are excellent additions that complement our existing Ayrton fixtures, giving us greater flexibility across a wide range of productions while ensuring we continue to offer the latest technology. Ambersphere has been a trusted partner throughout the process, providing the technical expertise and support that allows us to invest with confidence.”
Working in partnership with Ambersphere Solutions, Sterling has completed the investment ahead of the busy summer events season, increasing both capacity and stock availability for clients while supporting technically ambitious productions across the UK.
Sterling Event Group thanked Ambersphere Solutions for its support throughout the procurement process and looks forward to seeing the new fixtures on projects in the months ahead.Ambersphere Solutions is the exclusive UK distributor for Astera, Ayrton, MA Lighting, MDG, ROXX and zactrack, providing customers with access to industry-leading entertainment technology, backed by expert sales, service, technical support and training.
