The story

A project worth looking at properly.

Aris brought its 2026 Roadshow to London under the banner Let's Get AI Working, and wanted a conference that felt as forward looking as the subject itself. The agency Hire Space booked one of the capital's most distinctive spaces for it: the Mail Rail, the narrow gauge railway tunnel that runs underground beneath The Postal Museum in Clerkenwell.

Kudos AV was brought in to deliver the full technical production: stage, projection, sound, lighting, branding and the welcome experience, all designed to turn a raw heritage tunnel into a polished, fully branded conference for 150 delegates.

The Challenge

A complete build inside a strict access window

The Mail Rail is a working heritage venue with no natural light, hard reflective brick surfaces and tight underground access. It can only be used once the museum closes, so the entire conference had to be installed, run and removed inside a narrow window agreed with the venue.

The crew loaded in the evening before for a four hour build, returned for two hours the next morning to finish, focus and test, then ran the show. After the final session the whole production was struck and cleared from the tunnel in two hours. Every element was modelled to scale before load in, so the build matched the drawing exactly.
