Project description

Go Multimedia was mandated by the City of Repentigny to design a hybrid performance hall within its Cultural Space. Its three configurations, fixed seats (Italian style), cabaret or standing, allow the holding of popular amplified shows, corporate events with reception tables, musical productions, but also classical music concerts. After having been awaited for several decades in its community, the hall was finally able to open in the spring of 2021. Its design and construction, as well as its acoustic shell, give it a rare acoustic quality, among the most exceptional in the country. We are happy that the result is up to par.

Our implication

Involved from the start of the project, our team provided complete scenographic work, affecting the hall as well as the foyer, dressing rooms and technical spaces. We provided cutting-edge technical assistance to professionals, to the broadcaster and its technical team, and of course to the City of Repentigny. After having designed and specified the lifting and covering system, the acoustic shell and the multimedia systems, we ensured the proper completion of the project and the implementation of our prescriptions, until the opening show.

Project description

Well established in the Laurentians, Diffusion En Scène Rivière-du-Nord recently welcomed its loyal audience to a brand new theatre, Théâtre Gilles-Vigneault.

The latter, with a capacity of 860 seats, was built according to the highest standards of the entertainment industry in Quebec. It welcomes its visitors in an undulating wood decor and in the heart of a warm volume where the proximity with the artist has been carefully calculated and optimized.

In addition to the auditorium, a large foyer upstairs is equipped with facilities for small events such as press conferences, exhibitions, launches, etc.

Our implication

Go multimedia has been involved in this project from the very beginning. We participated in the production of the construction program that led to the architectural competition and continued through the design, execution, construction and final delivery phases. We assisted professionals in defining the layout of the hall and stage as well as the electrical infrastructure. We also designed and specified the lifting and stage dressing systems and multimedia systems. We also accompanied the professionals in the application of acoustic solutions for the room and its related spaces.
