AV Drop Creates 9 Giant Cubes for la Mercè Festival
We are very pleased to announce that AV Drop will be taking part in a festive occasion as important as La Mercè Festival! For this special occasion, our team has created the custom structures for a total of 9 large informational cubes with 4-sided enclosures, each of them measuring 3m.x2m. The cubes were finished with Flex BB fabric on the exterior, which was printed by our trusted partner Metacrilato Barcelona, producing an outstanding display.
As it is the 150th anniversary, La Mercè Festival wanted to commemorate its entire history, starting from its beginnings in 1871 to the present day. The 9 informative cubes are divided into 3 groups, each explaining a different period:
1. Blue cubes, from 1871 to 1935
2. Green cubes, from 1939 to 1978
3. Orange cubes, from 1975 to 2021
These 9 cubes will be moved to different locations in Barcelona, so that they can be viewed by everyone in the city. First, on Friday 24 September, three green, three blue and three orange cubes will be placed on Passeig de Gràcia. On Saturday 25 and Sunday 26, one cube of each colour will be placed in Ciutadella, Joan Miró and Palau de la Virreina.
Thanks to the fact that our system is very easy to assemble and dissassemble, lightweight and reusable, they can easily be relocated without any hassle.
We would like to thank the organizers of la Festividad de la Mercè for placing their trust in our modular backdrop system, and we really enjoyed being part of this project in our home town.
