In April of 2008, Pope Benedict XVI visited the United States for the first time, which was the sixth official papal visit to the US since 1984. Mountain Productions proudly provided staging for three of the stops on the Pope’s visit.

On April 17, the Pope made his way to Nationals Park in Washington, DC to celebrate mass with 46,000 attendees. Mountain Productions staged the event with a custom truss tower configuration, protective groundcover flooring, and two scaffold towers with custom printed softgoods. The main stage was adorned in beautiful scenic and truss tower covers, resulting in an elegant look for the special occasion.
