FAIRGROUND NEON SIGNS MELBOURNE ROYAL SHOW

As an important agricultural state fair, the Melbourne Royal Show offers a fantastic range of fairground rides, competitions, crafts, farm fun, food, and entertainment. Running for 11 days each spring, the Royal Show is a sell-out event boasting 500,000 visitors every year!

It was a pleasure working with their team to create a range of indoor and outdoor LED neon signs, which were installed in the heart of the Melbourne Showgrounds above the Spotlight Makers Pavilion and in the MasterChef Kitchen.

“Thanks very much for all your hard work on this, you have been lovely to speak with and have made the process easier.”- Alex, Event Planner Melbourne Royal Show

What we made for the Melbourne Royal Show:

We made five huge signs – one was a giant logo, and the others were line drawings of a horse, sheep, chicken, and cow. These IP67 waterproof-rated signs were mounted on black acrylic backboards and installed in the heart of the Melbourne Showgrounds above the Spotlight Makers Pavilion, right next to Graze and the main stage.

We worked with the Show’s event planners to design and manufacture LED neon artwork, logos, and hashtag signs that could be safely installed on the exterior of the building as well as inside for the duration of the Show. An important consideration in making the signs was the need for easy installation, dismantling, and storage, ready for use in future shows. We made each of the large 11′ 8″ x 11′ 8″ animal signs in 6 separate pieces to ensure safe transport and handling.

We also created two warm white indoor signs of the Melbourne Show’s logo. One was hung on the wall in the MasterChef kitchen, and the other graced the Port Phillip Room private function space.

“We love it! … Thanks for all your help in making this come to life!”- Alex, Event Planner Melbourne Royal Show

We’ve already begun working with their events team to design new signs for next year’s Melbourne Royal Show. We are so excited and can’t wait to see all the signs lighting up this important agricultural and community event!
