Technology convenes at Ulm from June 29-30, 2022, as DTHG hosts its 61st annual tech conference.

Tech event, DTHG's 61st stage technology conference, set to unfold in Ulm on June 29 and 30, 2022.

In June 2022, the German Theater Technology Association (DTHG) organised the 61st Bühnen­technische Tagung, a key event for professionals in stage and theater technology, and the fourth Weltenbauer Awards ceremony. The focus of both events was on the progressive handling of the pandemic.

The 61st Bühnen­technische Tagung

The 61st Bühnen­technische Tagung, with its 115-year history, is a network meeting for professionals from the fields of technology and art. The conference typically covers innovations, safety, engineering, and practical aspects of stage technology, including rigging, automation, lighting, acoustics, and digital tools in theater production.

While the exact day-to-day schedule of the 2022 conference may vary, these events traditionally span 2 to 3 days and include keynote speeches, technical sessions and workshops, panel discussions, exhibitions, and networking opportunities.

Topics covered in the 2022 conference included advanced rigging and automation systems for stages, safety improvements in stage machinery and equipment, sustainability and energy efficiency in theater technology, integration of digital technologies and smart control systems, innovations in lighting technology and design, acoustic optimization and sound technology, and collaborative workflows and project management in theater production.

The Weltenbauer Awards

The DTHG will award prizes in three categories at the fourth Weltenbauer Awards ceremony: Best Outdoor Concept, Best Technical Idea, and Best Digital Concept. The awards are based on the best concept ideas from each of the NEUSTART KULTUR funding applications.

The Weltenbauer Awards, presented during the conference, aim to honour outstanding achievements in the field of stage technology. Categories typically include Innovative Technical Solutions, Sustainable/Environmental Achievements, Safety and Ergonomics, Artistic Integration, and Young Talent or Research.

Detailed specifics on winners or exact award categories for 2022 are not publicly summarized in one place, but the awards aim to recognize excellence and innovative contributions across these themes.

Accompanying Events

Exhibitors at the accompanying trade fair will present products and services related to event, lighting, audio, sound, studio and stage technology, theater technology systems, stage equipment, control and switching systems, and event venues.

Visitors to the Stage Technology Conference can receive special conditions for their journey to Ulm with the Deutsche Bahn event ticket. Public transport within Ulm and Neu-Ulm can be used for free by conference visitors with the BTT admission ticket.

The Prolight + Sound event in April 2022 focused on innovative solutions for theater and stage technology, providing a perfect lead-up to the 61st Bühnen­technische Tagung and the Weltenbauer Awards ceremony in June.

The 61st Bühnen­technische Tagung and the fourth Weltenbauer Awards ceremony are not to be missed for anyone interested in the latest developments in stage and theater technology. For more detailed information, visit the official conference website or contact the organisers directly.
