Boasting a brand-new look, the Sir John Gibson pub has been given a new lease of life following on from a £233,000 investment. The community local, named after a wartime hero, is welcoming guests back to the venue following an interior and exterior transformation. Wanting to offer the latest AV technology to display all the sporting action, 9 large scale Hospitality TVs were installed by TVC to be used alongside a new pool table, illuminated darts board and gaming machines. Now every seat is the best seat in the house at the Sir John Gibson in the heart of Stanwell, with BT Sport and Sky Sports shown daily.
Throughout the premises, a selection of Hospitality TVs ranging from 32” to 75” were installed on a mix of Peerless and B-Tech flat TV brackets. To accompany the TV offering, 8 x Audac 8” 175W loudspeakers were mounted on swivel brackets. To enhance the audio, 1 x 10” Audac Subwoofer was included to be used during busy events such as the weekly pub quiz. Finally, 4 x single unit lighting effects were added to use alongside the subwoofer with multiple settings to control the shapes, colours and sequences of the lights.
The 32” digital display screen fitted directly behind the bar will be used to inform customers of current drinks offers while queuing at the bar. To facilitate this, we connected it to a state-of-the-art digital signage player with MySign digital signage software and templates. It offers a simple to use solution for editing and updating the content on screen at pub level.
Wanting to enhance the neglected beer garden into an outdoor viewing area to be enjoyed all year round, 2 x 55” Samsung Hospitality LED TVs were fixed on Peerless flat TV brackets under a sheltered canopy. The digital display screens were then secured using TVC Outdoor TV Enclosures, they are sealed to an IP55 rating offering protection from wind, rain, and any other unfavourable weather conditions.
Speaking about the refurbishment, new pub Operator Danielle said “The majority of our guests are big sports fans, so to add to our visual offering of live sports is a huge step forward for us. With the addition of the new pool table and darts board, there is plenty to keep our guests occupied whilst enjoying a few drinks here at the pub.”
