Beams of Brilliance: How LQE Lit Up an Outdoor Concert Without the Fog, Xiamen Live Show, China
Xiamen live show venue, 80 sets of auto digital moving beam LB380 provided thick and penetrating light beams, 50 sets of LX1000P LED digital moving light profile provided dazzling pattern lights and precised spot control. 100 sets each for OD648, OD168 and OD1910 outdoor LED wash rendered happiness and explosive atmospheres for the scene, resisted the wind and rain, and created a beautiful and amazing night for the audience with interlaced light and shadow.
Imagine this: A star-studded lineup, thousands of eager fans, and a beautiful outdoor venue under the open sky. Sounds like the perfect recipe for an unforgettable concert, right? But for Zhou Wenbin, the lighting wizard behind this massive event, there was just one tiny hiccup – Mother Nature wasn’t playing nice with his fog machines. Talk about a “clear” problem!
Setting the Stage: The Great Outdoors vs. Fog Machines
When Zhou got the gig to light up this outdoor extravaganza, he was pumped. But as he stood in the wide-open space, watching his fog dissipate faster than you can say “encore,” he knew he had a challenge on his hands.
“In indoor venues, fog is a lighting designer’s best friend,” Zhou explains with a grin. “It gives substance to light beams, creating those epic, atmospheric effects that make concerts truly magical. But outdoors? The fog just says ‘peace out’ and disappears into thin air!”
Zhou’s Lighting Dilemma: Bringing the WOW Without the Fog
Zhou’s to-do list was clear, even if the air wasn’t:
- Beam Me Up, Scotty: Create visible, impactful light beams without the help of fog.
- Versatility is Key: Ensure the lighting could adapt to different music styles and moods throughout the concert.
- Weather the Weather: Use fixtures that could stand up to unpredictable outdoor conditions.
- Power Play: Manage power consumption efficiently in an outdoor setting with limited resources.
- See and Be Seen: Ensure the lighting effects were visible and impressive, even from the back row.
“I needed lights that could punch through clear air like nobody’s business,” Zhou chuckles. “That’s when I decided to give LQE a call.”
LQE to the Rescue: Clearing the Air on Great Outdoor Lighting

- High-Output LED Powerhouses: LQE brought out their big guns – ultra-high-output LED moving head fixtures with incredible lumen output and tight beam angles.
- Prism and Beam Effects Galore: By incorporating multi-facet prisms and advanced beam shaping technology, LQE created stunning aerial effects that didn’t rely on fog.
- Color Temperature Mastery: LQE’s fixtures offered a wide color temperature range, allowing Zhou to create warm, inviting atmospheres or cool, ethereal moods at the touch of a button.
- Weatherproof Warriors: Every fixture was IP-rated for outdoor use, ready to brave whatever Mother Nature threw its way.
- Energy Efficiency Champions: Despite their high output, LQE’s LED fixtures were energy-efficient, easing the strain on the outdoor power setup.
Showtime: A Symphony of Light Under the Stars
When the first chord struck and the lights blazed to life, the audience was treated to a visual spectacle that rivaled the music itself.
“LQE didn’t just solve my problem; they revolutionized how I think about outdoor lighting,” Zhou beams. “Those beams cut through the night air like lasers, creating a celestial canopy above the crowd. It was like we had our own aurora borealis!”
The concert promoter was equally blown away: “I’ve never seen an outdoor show look this good. The lighting was so crisp and vibrant, it added a whole new dimension to the performances. LQE turned a potential setback into a major highlight!”
Why LQE Stole the Show
Zhou couldn’t stop raving about his experience with LQE:
- Innovative Solutions: “They didn’t just give me Plan B; they created a whole new alphabet of lighting possibilities!”
- Unmatched Brightness: “Those beams were so bright, I think we accidentally signaled a few aliens. Oops!”
- Versatility: “From mellow acoustic sets to high-energy dance numbers, the lighting adapted seamlessly.”
- Reliability: “Not a single hiccup all night. These lights were tougher than a seasoned roadie!”
- Expert Support: “The LQE team was by my side from setup to teardown. They were as invested in the show’s success as I was.”
Lighting the Way to Outdoor Concert Brilliance
As the echoes of the last encore faded away, Zhou reflected on the experience: “Working with LQE has opened my eyes to what’s possible in outdoor concert lighting. Who needs fog when you’ve got fixtures this fantastic?”
