TVD opens new outdoor audiovisual experience centre in Bolton

TVD Group launched the purpose-built facility at its headquarters on July 13, designed to showcase complete commercial outdoor AV solutions.

Located outdoors, the centre lets customers and industry professionals experience the technology in lighting conditions and scenarios that reflect real-world use.

Lucia Maguire, managing director of TVD Group, said: “Our original Experience Centre has always been about helping customers visualise what’s possible.

“The addition of our outdoor AV experience centre gives customers, consultants and specifiers the opportunity to experience AV technologies operating cohesively in a real-world environment.

“They can compare different solutions, ask technical questions and understand how every element can work together to deliver the best outcome for each project.”

The facility displays a full suite of integrated AV technologies, including weatherproof televisions, outdoor LED walls, professional audio systems, and control solutions, all designed to function seamlessly in external settings.

Visitors can explore how AV infrastructure, networking, control, and mounting systems combine to create impactful and reliable environments for hospitality, leisure, and entertainment.

Designed to be interactive and hands-on, the centre lets users engage with the technology, evaluate visual displays in daylight, test audio coverage, and examine the infrastructure that underpins successful outdoor AV installations.

These elements can help demonstrate how underused external areas can be turned into revenue-generating spaces.

Applications include live sport, entertainment, digital signage, and background music for hospitality and leisure venues.

The centre is open whatever the weather, and is designed for customers, consultants, project specifiers, and commercial end users.
