A Burton business is revelling in the limelight after supplying lamps to this summer’s Glastonbury Festival.

Lyon Lighting supplied 1,200 LED golfball lamps to festoon the walkways and illuminate the paths for thousands of audience members at the famous five-day music festival in Somerset.

The order for the ‘green’ lights came out of the blue โ€“ an inquiry on the firm’s website from the festival organisers a few weeks ago. The firm quoted the price and the order was confirmed.

โ€œWe delivered the lights direct to the festival just before it opened,โ€ said proprietor Will Chisholm. โ€œI watched the festival on television and was delighted to see our lights being used. I was honoured and proud to have supplied the lights for such a great occasion.โ€

The LED eco-friendly lights are energy efficient and save money. In addition, Lyon Lighting supplied another 300 festoon lights to put around one of the stalls and make it attractive to festival-goers.

Lyon Lighting originally supplied products just through a website to customers both in the UK and across the world. Last Autumn the company opened its shop at the Greenline Business Park where customers can pop in and see some of the products from an increased range of 20,000 items that can be supplied.
