Live Nation Middle East tasked PHNTM with delivering the technical production for BlackPink's monumental Middle Eastern tour across Abu Dhabi and Riyadh. The challenge was executing an extensive technical rider encompassing LED screens, lighting, lasers, special effects, and pyrotechnics on the Star Live Titan structure - the world's largest outdoor staging system and one of the only structures capable of handling a production of BlackPink's massive scale and complexity.
We managed local production vendors to ensure flawless delivery across both markets, working directly with BlackPink's touring production team. The shows featured six automated LED screens, 500 lighting fixtures, 40 lasers, and 100 special effects units including flames, CO2, and pyrotechnics. An 18-camera iMAG package was implemented to live-stream performances to flanking LED screens, enhancing the visual experience for every fan regardless of their position in the venue.
Over 70,000 passionate fans experienced BlackPink's vibrant world across the two tour dates, with each show culminating in spectacular pyrotechnics displays designed collaboratively with the production team. The flawless execution of complex technical elements created an unforgettable experience that showcased PHNTM's expertise in managing large-scale, technologically demanding events, solidifying our reputation as a premier production partner in the entertainment industry.
