Vigsø favors iForte/RoboSpot combination from Robe

Vigsø Group, a production rental and staging enterprise based in Denmark and led by Christian Vigsø, has invested in Robe’s RoboSpot remote follow system, initially using the system with BMFL Follow Spot fixtures and now with iForte LTX fixtures.

Vigsø Rentals currently has ten RoboSpot systems. The iForte LTX purchases started with twenty-one units, followed by another nine, and they now have thirty. Vigsø purchased the fixtures and the RoboSpot cameras separately so the lights can also go out as part of standard lighting rigs. The local distributor is Light Partner, based in Herning in western Denmark.

Christian Vigsø highlights the current trend for many popular Danish bands to play large arena and stadium shows, fuelling the need for high-powered fixtures and remote follow systems, noting that rear spots seem to be popular for these various designs. Recent RoboSpot rentals from Vigsø have included eighteen iForte LTXs on three RoboSpot systems for Jannik Jensen’s “The Minds of 99” arena tour, and rock singer Tomas Helmig also used them for some large shows this spring. Suspekt will also be using them for upcoming gigs.

Vigsø supplied the quadrennial 2025 DGI Landsstævne event - Denmark’s largest sports and community festival - with RoboSpot systems, where 100-metre throws needed to be covered, which was a task for the iForte LTXs. They have also been put on musicals, including “Frozen” and “Fame”. When Vigsø’s clients are touring or playing in another territory and needing RoboSpot systems - or to add to a system they might already be touring - this is usually possible as they are a frequently requested cross-rental item.

“Last year, I believe that an iForte LTX/RoboSpot combination became an industry-standard remote follow system for the Danish festival industry”, Christian Vigsø states. He also mentions that the transition from using the older BMFL long-throw follow spots to iForte and iForte LTX for the task has been seamless.
