Kanye West 2026 - Gelredome
Two nights. One massive production. 70.000 fans. The shows on June 6 and 8 demanded precision, speed and reliability from every department involved.
Working as lead of the lighting team, I was responsible for ensuring the lighting system remained show-ready throughout rehearsals and performance. From network infrastructure and system checks to fixture maintenance and troubleshooting under pressure, every element had to perform flawlessly when the show started.
Large-scale stadium productions leave little room for error. With extensive fixture counts, demanding creative requirements, preparation and attention to detail were essential. Throughout both show days, I supported the production team behind the scenes to keep the lighting system stable and responsive, allowing the creative vision to take center stage.
The result was a seamless visual experience that matched the scale and ambition of the production.
