Efficiency Drives Guy Sebastian’s 100 Times Around the Sun Tour

Guy Sebastian recently wrapped up his national 100 Times Around the Sun Tour, performing to sold-out audiences from Perth to Cairns. While audiences experienced a visually rich production that seamlessly complemented the music, behind the scenes the lighting design was driven by a very practical challenge.

Touring while diesel prices were at a record high presented unique challenges for Guy’s lighting designer Brad Alcock. Maximising creative impact while keeping the touring package as compact and efficient as possible became one of the tour’s key challenges, with every fixture needing to deliver multiple creative functions while minimising weight, truck space and setup time.

To achieve this, Brad selected a number of flexible lighting fixtures from ULA group’s portfolio because they fit this unique requirement. Principal lighting, vision and rigging supplier PRG and BAAC Light combined their inventories of these fixtures to deliver a flexible and dynamic lighting rig that could adapt to venues across the country without compromising the show’s visual identity.
