In 2018, I worked on the BBC’s Biggest Weekend, the largest multi-site event the BBC had ever delivered, with 12 live stages across four UK cities.
My role focused on solving one of the biggest technical challenges: how to live-edit performances across all stages in real time while ensuring a seamless online broadcast experience. That meant designing a robust infrastructure, refining our live workflows, and making sure everything held up under the pressure of a fast-moving festival environment.
I also scheduled and supported a team of over 100 people across the four sites, making sure we had agile, responsive crews ready to adapt as the show unfolded. It was a complex, high-stakes project and a great example of live broadcast and production teams working in sync at scale.
