A diverse range of stars from world of entertainment and music performed at the 2004 Royal Variety Performance in front of His Royal Highness The Prince of Wales at the London Coliseum on 14 December, screened on BBC 1 the following day.

The event used Sennheiser 1046 radio throughout, with London-based Hand Held Audio hiring in their recently purchased 16-channels to supplement the BBC's existing stock. Steve Locking was responsible for radio mic operation at the event with product support from Richard Kemp, Radio Mic and Talkback Operations Co-ordinator for BBC Resources and technical support from Sennheiser UK.

After the show, Richard Kemp commented, "Using Sennheiser 1046 for such events is a standard as it gives the broadcast quality we require with absolute reliability".



The 76th Royal Variety Performance is a charity event in aid of the Entertainment Artist's Benevolent Fund and was held at the London Coliseum, which celebrates its centenary and re-opening after undergoing a £41m restoration. Artists performing at this year's event included Liza Minnelli, Sir Elton John, Sir Cliff Richard, Denise Van Outen, Brian McFadden, Delta Goodrem, Gwen Stefani, Jamelia, Girls Aloud and Lemar.
