Oracle Red Bull Racing once again turned to trusted partner PPDS to transform the MK-7 experience

PPDS and Oracle Red Bull Racing have teamed up with Vogel’s and Ruitech Solutions to create a unique, immersive event location, with MK-7 now home to a super-sized indoor dvLED wall.

Oracle Red Bull Racing once again turned to trusted partner PPDS to transform the MK-7 experience. Bringing a trusted team into the mix, a custom-designed horseshoe-shaped, record breaking 46.25m wide Philips dvLED wall has been installed inside the reigning Formula 1 giants’ newly updated MK-7 headquarters in Milton Keynes.

Measuring a colossal 46.25×2.75m, the Philips Public dvLED wall – understood to be the largest dvLED wall installed in an indoor events space in Europe – was carefully constructed to provide a centrepiece to the main auditorium, and a backdrop to the growing horseshoe of F1 cars on display.

With no visible windows or natural light inside the main MK-7 event space, the Philips Public LED 7000 Series was the standout choice for Oracle Red Bull Racing, with high refresh rates, colour and brightness quality, together with a 2.4mm pixel pitch, delivering a total screen resolution of 19240×1144 for picture perfect performance and viewing experiences.

Nick Kenton, director of hospitality and events at Oracle Red Bull Racing, said: “Working with PPDS, our visions for this stunning venue have been fulfilled, with the new Philips LED wall able to deliver the cutting-edge technology and performance befitting of our brand with the capabilities we craved.”

Tim de Ruiter, business development director at PPDS, said: “Believed to be the largest of its kind, with this spectacular Philips LED wall, MK-7 has reaffirmed itself as one of the most unique and technologically advanced event spaces in Europe, if not the world.”
