Brisbane Convention & Exhibition Centre elevates event experience with L-Acoustics K2

The Brisbane Convention & Exhibition Centre (BCEC) is Queensland’s multipurpose venue, hosting everything from international conferences and touring concerts to local cultural events within the 171,000-square-metre complex.

The venue required a versatile audio solution capable of serving its diverse event portfolio. With over 40 multifunctional spaces hosting thousands of events annually, from the 4,000-capacity Great Hall to intimate conference rooms, BCEC needed a system that could deliver consistently high-quality sound across various ever-changing configurations.

BCEC partnered with Brisbane Sound Group (BSG), an L-Acoustics Systems Integration Network Agent, to design and implement a new audio solution to replace the ageing system.

Josiah Kerridge, Installation & Projects Manager at Brisbane Sound, commented:"A permanent K Series installation eliminated the need for constant load-in of external equipment. The K2 system's versatility perfectly complements BCEC's comprehensive rigging infrastructure, allowing for quick reconfigurations across their largest spaces."

The K2 system which Brisbane Sound purchased via local L-Acoustics Certified Provider Distributor Jands, was strategically designed to serve BCEC's six largest spaces, with particular focus on the 4,000-capacity Great Hall and exhibition halls that can combine to accommodate up to 10,000 attendees.

The venue's design features retractable tiered seating that allows spaces to be reconfigured, though this flexibility creates acoustic challenges from sound reflections when balconies are retracted to create larger spaces.

L-Acoustics application engineer Damien Juhasz developed specialised configurations using Soundvision 3D modeling software.
