The Entertainment Services and Technology Association (ESTA) has announced that its Plugfest 2023—an event where manufacturers and developers test their lighting products for interoperability—will expand from three days to four days.

ESTA’s Plugfest is a unique opportunity for attendees to connect their lighting products with those of other manufacturers to test and resolve compatibility challenges. Attendees from around the world bring controllers, intelligent lights, control protocol analyzers, and other network-connected components to improve their product experiences.

The October 5-8 event, free for both ESTA members and non-members, is a chance to take advantage of the vast knowledge and experience of the Control Protocols Working Group (CPWG), one of the Technical Standards Program’s largest working groups.

ESTA invites interested participants to e-mail [email protected] to reserve a spot and access more information on ESTA’s news webpage.
