- Clay Paky's world headquarters and manufacturing facility in the heart of Italy is responsible for developing and producing some of the most iconic and forward-thinking fixtures and lighting technologies in the world. I've been wanting to visit for a while now, and I wanted to bring you along as well. In this video, we travel to Bergamo, Italy to see their assembly line and quality control processes.
Thanks to the entire team at Clay Paky for allowing me into their facility to see how they make their products.

Thanks Alena and Marco for being such wonderful hosts :) we had very limited time to see everything they had to offer, so I’m sorry about the rushed nature of this video in some parts. Wish I could have spent more time there. Oh well, guess that just means I’ll have to go back sometime soon.
Thanks to you Christian. It was a pleasure meeting you!
Hey bro why'd you block me on Instagram?
The brightness difference between the Mythos and the Xtylos is just incredible! I mean, I knew that ther would be a difference but its enormous!
I was surprised when too when they compare the reds !!
Clay Paky are awesome people... I sent them a random email out of the blue asking for a t-shirt, and they delivered lol!
Thank you Marco and Alena for a great tour. And thank you Christian for sharing a bit of your vacation.
THANKS MARCO AND ELAINA!!!!!
It's like a kid in a candy store 😂😂😂
Thanks Alena and Marco
;-)
I'm Italian and I've never seen this factory... Guess some day I'm gonna visit it...
I just discovered this and want to express my gratitude for such an entertaining and educational view behind the scenes of such an incredible company. Grazie Mille!
To Alena and Marco thank you for letting Christian get a look into the mind of Clay Paky... I am just starting my journey into advance lighting and without Christian I would not know where to start.. Keep up the awesome work...
Thanks David from both of us!
I’m Italian and I have already visited their factory😀
Ma hai chiesto semplicemente? o era già organizzato qualcosa?
Durante l'anno un paio di open day li facciamo sempre. Se vi interessa fare una visita, chiedete pure. Scriveteci in DM via facebook o instagram.
Francesco Cucchiaro ho visitato il MOMS (il museo che viene fatto vedere nel video)
Omg the museum is tremendous, I had a couple of the lights in there at home, huge regrets in selling them on. Thanks for this amazing video.
Welcome To ITALY 🇮🇹 Bro !
Thank you!
Forza Italia!! 🇮🇹
🇹🇭
These guys put so much love into these lights. Amazing products.
Thanks!
@@ClaypakyOfficial i got really surprised to see human workers in there instead of all robots :O Props Claypaky!!!!!!
Amazing! Thank you Clay Paky and CJ!
YESSSSSS. I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR YOU TO LOOK AT A XTYLOS
Thanks CP to let Christian record that very interesting factory visit!
Love that!
Thanks! Kudos to Christian for the huge effort!
That xtylos looks interesting potentially the 2nd sharpy- the mirror looks interesting will be having a look at that.
Thanks Christian, I would love to have a walk around Robe
Great to see the world famous George Masek working hard in the factory.
This was great. Thanks for doing this and thanks to Clay Paky for letting it happen.
What a great video. That must have been such a fun and informative trip to go on and see the inner workings of Clay Paky.
Thank you Clay Paky and Christian, love from Croatia
This was so so enjoyable!!! Thank you. Just great.
Omg thank you so much that's insane to see the factory 👍
HI Christian. Claypaky are my friends too, so I also was there in April, 2018. Unfortunately, Xtylos hadn't been launched yet, but I was happy just of seeing this awesome place. Many thanks to you for sharing this video - it made me feels like I was there again!
Hope to see you here again soon!
Nice factory , thanx Clay Paky for an inside view!
And thanx Christian for sharing this video!
Great video. Thanks for the virtual tour. Those Goldenscans bring back a lot of memories of my days long past...
Thanks to both of them, having some of the tech explained was truly awesome. Such amazing tech, cannot wait to get my hands on it. The prism FX in the Xtylos... way too cool
Really Cool to see primary production in Italy! Thanks for this video, it's excellent
Awesome!!! Thanks to you and everyone at Clay Paky, in my old clubbing days I was always in complete awe of the flying saucer fixture. Like the new fixtures too. Bravo!!!
I never thought I'd see a video on this! It brings back memories of my visit to Clay Paky in 2011. They were so hospitable and I had so much fun hanging out in Bergamo and at their HQ and factory. Cheers for the memory trip
I visited the MOMS in their offices a few weeks later after i saw some pictures on your Instagram ;-) Even DM'ed you with some questions about the visit but never got an actual answer :-)) Thanks to Pietro for opening up the museum for me and my girlfriend ! It was worth the 100km detour on our 2 week holiday in Italy!
Thanks to you Matthias!
Great to see the museum showing not only their great stuff from the past, but other manufacturers stuff too!
Always been my favourite manufacturer. Thank you for this trip :)
Amazing video!! Wow and thank you.
Thanks Alena and Marco for allowing Christian to tour Clay Paky.
I must admit back in the 90's, I cut my teeth on a Goldenscan 3 and loved every minute of it. I do miss the event production life and all of the technology that now is available. Thanks. 👍
Thanks Marco & Alena, this was so cool to see and has increased my respect for the craftsmanship of Clay Paky products tenfold!
I saw this fixture at PLASA, super impressive! I can't wait to see them in action!
What a great video. Thank you everyone
Thank you Marco with Clay Paky Amazing tour and inside look at some new amazing lights
SLS Productions I’m happy that you like it. Christian did a great job.
What an amazing video. Thank you to everyone who made this possible. It’s so incredible to see the work behind these fixtures.
Thanks!
Goldenscans were amazing - a trooper on stage. They were a must at any decent UK rave in the 1990s. They even advertised them on the flyers as an attraction.
Thanks for the tour, Christian. That was really interesting. Unbelievable how much work is done behind the curtains just to let a show shine bright. Ha, the Golden Scan, great fixture but heavy as hell.
Awesome!
Awesome stuff Christian 👍🏼 thanks for sharing!
So freaking cool to see the progression of lighting tech in that little museum!! Thanks for sharing this is so freaking cool, you lucky boy!
@@ld2lightu Honestly teared up a bit when I saw the VL 1!
@@ld2lightu a very special part of our museum!
Thank you for this amazin video Christian!!
Christian - Marco...
Me - POLO..
Guy named Marco - FINALLY!!
Me - He does not know how to play this game
The innovations we see from this company is absolutely staggering.
I could spend all day there, what a cool place!
thanks, Marco and Elena. If I visit Italy once, I will sure go to Bergamo and visit Clay Paky. It was a very interesting video, Christian!
MrOOFerstein you should ! And the food man .... wow 😲
Waiting for you then! And Emiliano... you already know very well every single corner of the CP HQ :-)
What a trip, man.
Great video CJ. The advances in technology seem to be endless.
Thanks for sharing this...
Very cool to see.
Big fan of their products. Never could afford to own them (and really - as a mobile small time DJ it's a bit overkill). Have used Clay Paky in club settings though. It's been some 5 years since I retired and it's really cool to see how their products continue to evolve.
Great vid and a big thanx to the CP staff for letting us have a look. :)
Thanks Roger!
Wow that was an unbelievable interesting tour around the Clay Paky factory,
You are the God of lighting!
Omg their lights are the holy grail of lights, love them and loved your tour. OOOOO just got to the part with their vintage lights, I had an Astroaggi in my house and selling it was a huge mistake. I dreamed of having a Golden Scan 3 🥰 Thank you for sharing.
Thanx! Alena and Marco
Also Thank You to Christian!
WOW this video was a BIG walk down memory lane. I think I have owned or used almost every one of these fixtures. Can't wait to use the Xtylos and the mirror unit.
Thanks Marco, thanks Alena 🙂
very cool video, Thanks for sharing!
Wow what a great video man ,,,viva Italia 🇮🇹
Thank you marco and Alena! Thanks for the tour ! I've applied at Clay paky two years ago! They should hire me! ,.Im the greatest tech in the world ! 😆

Great stuff. This is the future. I had plans to build my own laser diode-powered fixture and they beat me to it.
This video was awesome!

Hey just want to say the Here For Now Tour was incredible! Do some more vlogs while on tour with Louis The Child!
Christian Jackson, obrigado por sua visita a importante fabricante mundial, todo meu respeito a Clay Paky. Estou no Brasil, não temos muitas oportunidades. Mas amo iluminação. Acompanho grandes fabricantes, High End Systems, Vari lite, Chauvet, Martin, Robe, SGM, Griven, Nova Light, Look Solutions, Má light, Avolites entre outros. Você me deu um presente. Sucesso no seu trabalho.
I mean woah, a stage/rave lighting museum 😎
Danke

Amazing!
So jellous..i want to go to clay paky factory as well as robe. Maybe Elation and chauvet

Very nice
I did a sound job in a club not long ago that still uses 16 golden scans in the roof about 30ft high, right over the crowd. I wouldn't like to have been the guy(s) that had to get them up there! I'm not surprised they havent tried to change the bulbs in a couple of them
Rigger life 🔨
That was seriously awesome! Thank you so much. But... Couldn't name a VL2C, hand in your LD card immediately.
I am ashamed
MY CITY😍😍😍
I've got an original Claypaky UFO!! It's fantastic. Done some modification on it. And can drive the motors induvidual.
Funny story: I'm Italian but I never knew that ClayPaky had a factory in Bergamo!! Thank you Christian for let me know it lol
First clay paky fixture i encountered was one of these shadow followers. We have it at our school worked perfectly since we got it
WELCOME TO ITALY CHRISTIAN! 🇮🇹
thank you
Hi, I'm 14, I'm from the Netherlands and I've been watching your videos for about a year and a half. I really love mixing and electronics but a year and and a half ago when I found your channel I realized that I want to program lights like you do. I don't know where to start but I know this is what I want to do later in life. Do you have any tips on where and how to start? I have been thinking about downloading MA on pc after my brother and I are done building our pc, but is that free and if so will it help me? Thanks for reading, your work is really good.
