When live experience agency, People, were contracted to design and build a temporary 800-seat cinema for the 60th BFI London Film Festival at Victoria Embankment Gardens, they had quite the audience to impress. And they didn’t disappoint.
 
Production Director, Chris Nevins turned to Harlequin Floors. People wanted to find something special for the floor in the box office and bar area and that’s why they came to Harlequin; for a bespoke printed vinyl floor – printed on Harlequin Reversible.The final effect was as glamourous as the stars that showed on the cinema's screens, during the 12 days of the Festival. 

Commenting on his experience with Harlequin, Production Director, Chris Nevins said: “Harlequin’s response was quick and efficient meaning the order was delivered within the short timescale we needed. The result was great and delivered the impact we were really hoping for.” 

This year’s BFI London Film Festival of 184,700  broke the record for audience attendance and was  up 18% on last year with the new ‘pop-up’ cinema, known as Embankment Garden Cinema  being a big factor.
