Client and event overview

Imagine stepping inside a centuries-old cathedral to find its walls, ceilings and architecture completely transformed by light. Our event stewarding team had the pleasure of supporting Luxmuralis at Bristol Cathedral — an immersive experience combining projection, light and sound within one of the city's most historic spaces. It was definitely not your average stewarding shift.

When Heritage Meets Immersive Art

Luxmuralis creates large-scale light and sound installations within some of Britain's most spectacular buildings.

At Bristol Cathedral, projected artworks moved across the ancient architecture while visitors explored the experience.

Our stewards were positioned throughout the attraction, welcoming guests, helping manage visitor movement and providing information and guidance along the route.

But working somewhere like this requires a slightly different approach.

Stewarding Without Breaking the Magic

For an immersive experience, staff need to be present without becoming the experience.

Our teams needed to keep visitors moving safely through the Cathedral while allowing people the space and time to actually stop, look around and take it all in.

That's where experienced event stewards really add value.

They can read an environment, communicate when needed and understand when the best customer service is simply allowing the experience around them to do the talking.

Luxmuralis also brought together two areas we love working within: heritage event staffing and illuminations.

From historic buildings transformed by projection to huge outdoor winter trails, our teams understand the unique visitor-flow and customer-service requirements these experiences bring.

In the heart of Bristol Cathedral, where history meets modernity, Ethical Staffing stepped into the limelight to ensure the smooth execution of Luxmuralis, an awe-inspiring event blending art, music, and history. As the premier provider of event staff in the city, we played a pivotal role in orchestrating a seamless experience for attendees.

At Luxmuralis, the convergence of multiple artists' illuminations synchronised with captivating soundtracks transformed the cathedral into a mesmerising canvas of light and sound. Amidst this spectacle, Ethical Staffing's event stewards stood as guardians, guiding visitors through the ethereal display with warmth and expertise.

The exhibition saw artists create captivating light trails, weaving through the cathedral's ancient architecture, captivating the audience at every turn.

Our team of event stewards were crucial in the successful operation and visitor experience of the attraction.

Upon entry into the cathedral, our stewards were positioned throughout the experience to ensure crowd management and noise levels were kept to a minimum to take in the sound design of the display.
