Follow-Me, a specialist of performer tracking technology, has announced the opening of its new meeting space and demonstration room in the heart of London’s vibrant Soho district. Located within the technically advanced Underbelly Boulevard Soho, the facility will serve as a hub for designers, operators, and potential Follow-Me users to experience the system’s capabilities firsthand.

The new demo space will be overseen by Luke Edwards, Designer Relations Liaison UK at Follow-Me, who will be available on-site to provide demonstrations, consultations, and system training on request.

Underbelly Boulevard Soho – the first permanent location from the world-leading live entertainment company Underbelly – provides an ideal technical environment for showcasing Follow-Me’s innovative remote follow-spot and performer tracking technology. With convenient access to public transportation, the space is positioned to become a central meeting point for the UK lighting design community. Known as a vibrant entertainment destination featuring theatre, comedy, variety, and cabaret performances, along with bar and restaurant facilities, its technical infrastructure makes it an excellent showcase for Follow-Me’s technology, which offers an alternative to traditional follow-spots in modern performance spaces.

In this new demo space, Follow-Me can showcase its complete product lineup. This includes the advanced Follow-Me 3D TWO and SIX system for comprehensive three-dimensional tracking, along with the versatile Follow-Me Track-iT auto tracking solution, to transform any fixture into a remote follow-spot, provide 3D positioning data to immersive audio and mapped video systems, and to integrate with stage automation systems.

Follow-Me will also start running regular training sessions several times a month, allowing operators to gain hands-on experience with their systems in a professional setting.

“It’s great to have this wonderful space to use in Central London, that’s conveniently located for public transport,” says Edwards. “Given that Underbelly Boulevard Soho is filled to the brim with technology and doesn’t have space for traditional follow-spots, it makes it the ideal place for us to use as a demo and training room. Showing LD’s, specifiers, and rental companies what Follow-Me can do in person is incredible. Seeing really is believing.”

The company is issuing a save the date for its first open day at Underbelly Boulevard Soho, set to take place on 17th June. For more information about scheduling a live demonstration or attending future training sessions, entertainment professionals are encouraged to contact Luke Edwards at Follow-Me: luke@follow-me.com.
