What Client Says

As the sun begins its slow descent over the Tyrrhenian Sea, the scent of salt drifts through the pine trees and thousands of people gather on the grass facing a stage that seems to stretch toward the horizon. This is La Prima Estate: where music meets the sea breeze, where international headliners share the same sky as emerging discoveries, and where every sunset feels like the opening scene of a perfect summer story.

For a few days each year, Lido di Camaiore becomes a destination suspended between festival culture and the Italian dolce vita. Here, world-class performances, exceptional hospitality and a uniquely relaxed atmosphere come together to create an experience that feels both effortlessly elegant and undeniably alive.
For the 2026 edition, Parco BussolaDomani once again became a destination for some of the most celebrated names on the global live music scene. Artists including Jack White, The Hives, Richard Ashcroft, The Libertines, Wolf Alice, Wet Leg, Sleaford Mods, Marlene Kuntz, Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, Gorillaz and Twenty One Pilots transformed the Tuscan coastline into a crossroads of rock, alternative, indie and contemporary sounds, drawing audiences from across Italy and beyond.

Such a lineup demanded a sound system capable of matching the festival's ambition. Under the consultancy of dBTechnologies and with system deployment by Tema Service, a large-scale VIO configuration was designed to deliver impact, depth and musicality across the entire audience area.

The main PA featured 36 VIO L212 modules, configured in two hangs of 18 elements per side. To extend horizontal coverage and maintain tonal consistency throughout the venue, 16 additional VIO L212 modules were deployed as outfills, 8 per side.
Beyond the main audience field, a substantial delay system comprising 24 VIO L212 modules, configured in two hangs of 12 elements per side and positioned behind the FOH control area, extended the reach of the performance deep into the venue. Designed to preserve coherence, energy and musical detail over long distances, the delay tower ensured that every listener—from the front barrier to the furthest areas of the festival grounds—experienced the same connection to the stage.
The front rows were served by 18 VIO L1610 units, carefully positioned to create a seamless transition between the stage edge and the main arrays. Low-frequency energy was entrusted to 40 VIO S218F subwoofers, ground-stacked across the front of the stage, providing the weight, punch and control required by a program ranging from intimate songwriting moments to stadium-scale rock performances.

Particular attention was given to system alignment and coverage optimization, ensuring phase coherence between mains, outfills, delays and subwoofer arrays. The result was a remarkably uniform sound field capable of maintaining clarity, impact and definition across the entire listening area.

As daylight faded over the Versilia coastline and the stage lights began to cut through the evening air, the VIO system became the invisible thread connecting artists and audience. Every guitar riff, every vocal nuance and every chorus shared by thousands of voices travelled effortlessly across the venue, helping transform La Prima Estate into what it does best: a celebration of music, summer and the unmistakable feeling that, for a few days, there is nowhere else in the world you would rather be.
