ULTRA Europe 2026

INTRODUCTION Robe’s new laser-source GigaPointe made a major statement at ULTRA Europe 2026, with 54 fixtures deployed across the festival’s Main and RESISTANCE stages as part of a total package of 264 Robe moving lights. The fixtures powered the spectacular visual experience at Park Mladeži in Split, Croatia, for three days in July, delivering the punch, speed and high-impact looks demanded by one of Europe’s biggest electronic music festivals. Up to 50,000 Ultranauts attended each day, with a lineup including Calvin Harris, Martin Garrix, Hardwell, DJ Snake, Armin van Buuren, Afrojack, John Summit and many more, and the Robe fixtures helped to ensure the adrenaline pumped and the serotonin levels peaked! THE BRIEF As one of Europe's largest electronic music festivals, ULTRA Europe presents one of the industry's toughest environments for lighting technology, demanding long operating hours, changeable weather conditions and broadcast-quality performance across multiple stages. The key was to deliver powerful, flexible and camera-conscious lighting across ULTRA’s two largest electronic music stages, complementing extensive LED surfaces and laser content for both live audience and broadcast. GIGAPOINTE – NEXT-GENERATION POWER AND PRECISION! Position RESISTANCE: 42 x GigaPointes were deployed around the over-audience trusses traversing the length of the space. Here they delivered powerful aerial effects and sliced decisively through 200 square metres of LED screen.Main Stage: 12 x GigaPointes were extremely strategically placed along the low corners of the two wing sections, below the bottom edges of the lowest blocks of LED screen. This was to maximise their impact in wide camera and crane shots from the field, and combine effortlessly with MegaPointe beams to punch through the entire visual picture. Challenge Main Stage: Cutting through extensive LED and laser content while delivering consistent, camera-friendly output for multiple guest LDs in demanding festival conditions.RESISTANCE: needed to assist keeping the rhythms pumping and the energy surging from off the stage and right into the back of the space! Key benefits Super-bright, uniform laser-source beamRich, camera-friendly coloursFast, precise movementBalanced output at low intensitiesCuts through large LED systemsReliable through long festival daysFamiliar programming alongside MegaPointe Quotes and references Alessandro Scotellaro: “The beam is VERY uniform and even, and the colours are super bright!”Fabian Fisniku, LD for Martin Garrix: “Overall, it’s been developed so it is very nice to programme, using it in conjunction with MegaPointes is convenient and user-friendly from a console perspective.”Junior: “GigaPointe does a brilliant job of dealing with 10 or more LDs, searing heat and sometimes torrents of rain on the same day.”Serafin Gonzalez: “The output is well balanced and uniform across multiple fixtures, including at low intensities. Even in the darker shades, they are capable of well-defined movements, particularly at high speeds!” Luka Nabergoj & Andrej Testen (FOH Lead Technicians): “GigaPointe proved to be a reliable part of the overall lighting system throughout the event.” FORTE & iFORTE – GO-TO KEY LIGHTING Position FORTES provided all Main Stage key lighting and specials, with a concentration of them on five chevron-shaped trusses in the middle of the central section. Eight iFORTES were split between upstage DJ lighting and an exposed downstage truss for direct keys. Challenge Holding their own against more than 600 square metres of LED screen while exposed fixtures remained protected from changeable weather. Key benefits High brightnessPowerful key lightingBroadcast-ready outputStrong against LEDIP-rated protection from the elements (iFORTE) Quotes and references Junior: “IP rated fixtures are now essential for any outdoor event during summer in Europe.” SPIIDER – A FESTIVAL WORKHORSE Position 60 x Spiiders delivered wash and beam effects across the Main Stage. Challenge Providing flexible, familiar coverage for numerous visiting LDs and artist showfiles. Key benefits Bright wash and beam outputHighly versatileReliableFamiliar to guest LDs Quotes and references Junior described Spiider as a workhorse fixture that LDs are “always happy” to use. MEGAPOINTE - FAST, FLEXIBLE WING COVERAGE Position 98 x MegaPointes covered the Main Stage’s left and right wings as the principal spot and profile fixtures. Challenge Supporting the wide cinematic design with fast, flexible effects and dependable performance. Key benefits BrightFastHighly versatileRobustLow maintenance Quotes and references Junior: “People still love MegaPointes and always will!” CONCLUSION Across both stages, the 54 x GigaPointes proved a major part of ULTRA Europe’s visual impact, delivering the power, speed, uniformity and resilience demanded by a world-class electronic music festival, both live and on camera. Together with the wider Robe package, they helped create the scale and intensity expected of one of Europe’s biggest electronic music festivals, performing brilliantly in some seriously exacting environments! Junior, who has worked with ULTRA Europe for over 10 years, highlighted the great teamwork, camaraderie and synergy of so many technical and creative disciplines combining to produce a truly world-class festival experience for music fans.

Followspotting Metallica’s M72 World Tour 2026

INTRODUCTION Metallica’s record-breaking M72 stadium tour continues playing sold-out venues across Europe in support of their eleventh studio album, 72 Seasons, a phenomenon that started in 2023. The tour features an impressive 120-foot wide, in-the-round stage designed by Dan Braun, including a centre-ring pit area, and lighting designer Rob Koenig is utilising 16 x Robe iFORTE LTX Follow Spots and an 8-way RoboSpot system to ensure that the band can always be clearly seen by fans from all around the venue, and also that they look great on camera. THE BRIEF Rob needed a high-quality follow spotting and key lighting solution for the tour, and having successfully used RoboSpot for several years, it was a natural choice. The iFORTE LTX FS fixtures were an upgrade for the 2026 edition of the tour, where they had previously used 16 x Robe BMFL WashBeams on the RoboSpot system. IFORTE LTX FOLLOW SPOT – BRIGHT, FLEXIBLE, HIGH QUALITY LIGHT Position Two iFORTE LTX FS fixtures each were positioned on eight 30-metre-high towers erected around the stadium field and focused on the central stage. Each tower is rigged with LED screens and each of these have ladder torms extending down the full length of the screens. The two fixtures at the bottom of each ladder … are the follow spots. Challenge In the round shows are always galvanising to light and require precision positioning of the follow luminaires. As always, it is essential that follow spotting and key lighting make the artists look great, both live and on camera, and Rob is constantly aware that they should feel comfortable while looking into the follow spot beams and not have to squint or shade their eyes from the glare.The near throw from the spotlight to stage is approximately 14 metres and the longer throw – to the other side of the stage – is around 35 metres, however, depending on the venue and the stage layout, the longer spot throws can be up to 50 metres, so fixtures with plenty of power and punch were needed. Key benefits PowerfulHigh-quality light outputHigh CRIProduce excellent flesh tonesLook great on cameraComfortable for artists to look at Quotes and references Rob: “Firstly, these fixtures are very comfortable for a performer to look into – my job includes ensuring that any artists feel as comfortable as possible on stage … while still being able to launch rockets off their faces.”Rob: “The iFORTE LTX is an excellent light, the power really shines through, especially on longer throws.” ROBOSPOT SYSTEMS Position The 8 x RoboSpot BaseStations were located under the grandstands at each venue, near to dimmer and video worlds. Challenge Remote control of the follow spots offered spot-on, very accurate and safe control from the eight different positions around the stadium. Key benefits The fixture parameters could all be run from the lighting console – the LD has many more options for specifying which parameters are controlled from the desk and what is under the control of the follow spot operatorsActivating the tracking zoom parameter from the RoboSpot stations keeps the spot in proportion as the artist moves around the stage / performance spaceNo people working at heights during the show Quotes and references Rob: “The operators handle all parameters or just a single one like we are doing here, so depending on the gig, the follow spotting can be as simple or as complex as I want it to be.” CONCLUSION Utilising the flexibility and precision of RoboSpot combined with the power, quality and finesse of the iFORTE LTX Follow Spot fixtures provided Rob with a safe, dynamic and adaptable follow spotting solution for large outdoor shows, whatever the weather. It is essential that 360-degree shows look the same from all angles, and using this system helps achieve that goal.
