Overview
Full Monty’s is Rolleston’s newest premium entertainment venue, designed to deliver an immersive, high-energy experience across sport, nightlife, and interactive entertainment. From Ten Pin Bowling and karaoke to Golf simulators and an Arcade, the venue required a robust, flexible, and intuitive audiovisual system capable of handling multiple content sources and zones—without relying on technical staff.
NZAV was engaged to design and deliver a fully custom AV control and distribution system that would simplify daily operation while providing the power and scalability expected of a modern entertainment venue.
The Challenge
Full Monty’s needed an AV solution that could:
-
Seamlessly manage multiple video and audio sources across the venue
-
Drive a large LED wall, TVs, and digital signage simultaneously
-
Support SKY sports, nightlife visuals, and karaoke content
-
Provide nightclub-quality audio with strong low-frequency performance
-
Be simple for staff to operate, without accessing AV racks or complex hardware
-
Remain reliable during peak trading hours and high-energy events
The solution had to balance technical complexity behind the scenes with absolute simplicity at the front of house.
The NZAV Solution
NZAV designed and implemented a custom-built control system that unifies all video, audio, and signage systems into a single, staff-friendly interface.
At the heart of the system is a 16x16 video matrix, allowing any source to be routed to any display across the venue instantly. This provides complete flexibility for different modes of operation—from live sport broadcasts to karaoke nights and nightclub visuals. We also used a Multiviewer from AV Pro Edge so that we can split the LED Screen into four or as a super wide screen for digital signage.
NZAV’s custom control platform enables staff to manage the entire AV system quickly and intuitively, eliminating the need to access equipment racks or troubleshoot technical hardware during service.
