David Guetta

The year was 2020 — one of the darkest years the event industry has ever faced.

COVID was sweeping across the world, shows were cancelled, cities were empty, and for months the entire industry lived in silence. Work was scarce. Hope was fragile.

And then the phone rang.

David Guetta would perform at the MTV EMA 2020, live from the Széchenyi Thermal Bath, presenting his newest track.And for the show, they needed a very specific flame machine — one so rare in Hungary that only two teams had it: a group in Békéscsaba… and us.

A strange moment where luck and preparation met.

A race against time

Just hours before the live shoot, disaster struck:one of the flame units malfunctioned.

No time for repair.No backup.No excuses.

Within minutes, we were in the car, speeding across the country on a mission that felt like something out of a movie — hundreds of kilometers, no margin for error, and an MTV production waiting on us.

And somehow, against every ticking clock,we made it.

The replacement machine arrived literally at the last moment.We set it up, powered it on, held our breath —and it worked.

The show goes on

That night, as the flames roared skyward and David Guetta delivered his set to millions of viewers worldwide, we stood behind the scenes knowing:

In the middle of a global standstill,in the hardest year our industry has ever lived,we still delivered.

It wasn’t just a technical job.It was resilience, teamwork, adrenaline, and the kind of commitment that defines who we are.

A proud moment — born from chaos, saved by speed, and remembered forever.
