Katy Perry and Linkin Park are definitely bringing up the volumne when it comes to the entertainment in Madrid, Spain today. The two performers were outside, prior to the MTV EMAS in the Puerta de Alcala (Alcala Gate) in the Plaza de la Independcia ("Independence Square") in Madrid.
Tens of thousands of music fans are expected to flood the Plaza de Independcia and the Calle de Alcala, which will be closed to traffic to allow fans to enjoy performances by their favourite artists against the spectacular backdrop of the Alcala Gate.
The event will be shot in HD and the stage set up will use revolutionary new technology which will incorporate holographic projections of a 'magic box' brought to life live on the stage. Technology will allow the artists to literally step in and out of the box as part of their performances. In addition, MTV will flood the beautiful Puerto de Alcala backdrop with stunning high-quality projections.
The Puerta de Alcala is a monument created by Francisco Sabatini to celebrate the triumphal arrival of Carlos III in Madrid in 1778 and marks the gateway to the Spanish Court. Built of granite and limestone, the Puerta de Alcala boast three big arches topped with lion's heads, with one smaller arch on each side. The very top of the monument is covered in a riot of carved angels, trophies and the coat of arms made by Francisco Gutierrez.
Hosted by Eva Longoria, the MTV EMA 2010 will broadcast live from Madrid and will feature performances by Katy Perry, Ke$ha, Kid Rock, Kings of Leon, Linkin Park, B.o.B & Hayley Williams, Plan B, Miley Cyrus, Bon Jovi, Shakira and Rihanna.
