AREA15 ADDS BEST-IN-CLASS PROJECTION SYSTEM TO GROWING LIST OF
EVENTS CAPABILITIES
Panasonic PT-RQ35K Series Projector Installed in The Portal, Offers 4K Resolution and 30,000 Lumens of Brightness
AREA15 has emerged as Las Vegas’ most desirable new event venues, and its 7,000-square-foot indoor space, The Portal, recently added the industry’s most sophisticated projection system: the Panasonic PT-RQ35K Series Projector. AREA15 marks only the second venue to offer the state-of-the-art system; Panasonic introduced the world’s smallest and lightest projector in its class to a consumer audience for the first time during this summer’s Olympic Games in Tokyo. Capable of delivering a transporting immersive experience, the system employs 4K resolution and 30,000 lumens of brightness to deliver unparalleled image quality and superior realism.
Currently used in the 360-degree, projection-mapped art exhibition, “Van Gogh: The Immersive Experience,” the new system can project custom digital displays for performing artists, corporate groups and other organizations that book The Portal.
“Panasonic’s newest projection system represents the most recent addition to our best-in-class events capabilities, and we are gratified to be among the first venues to adopt it,” said Winston Fisher, chief executive officer, AREA15. “With a fast-growing number of DJ shows, music festivals, special events, weddings, sales meetings and more on our event calendar, we encourage anyone seeking an unforgettable location to check out our roster of venues and other distinctive amenities.”
