WINCENT WEISS Arena Tour 2025 

ST. ROBO, a leading design studio specializing in creative direction, production design, and visual content for live entertainment, shares insights into their latest original and innovative production. 

For Wincent Weiss‘ 2025 Arena Tour, ST. ROBO was tasked with developing a fully integrated show concept, including creative direction, set and lighting design, content development and IMAG. The aim was to create a visual world that could shift in form and feel, supporting the emotional arc of the performance while offering constant visual transformation across large-scale arenas. 

Central to the design were two towering, transparent LED walls that doubled as surfaces for video content and translucent filters for the lighting setup built behind them. This layered configuration allowed IMAG, effects and content to merge into a single cohesive canvas. The LED system wrapped around the stage, creating an enveloping visual experience from every angle.

Movable stage elements including a floating pod and tilting light lines allowed the stage to morph in real time, thereby altering scale, orientation and depth. Linear fog and SFX systems were seamlessly integrated into the platforms, adding atmosphere while remaining visually discreet. Additionally a real-time IMAG system powered by NOTCH connected the performer directly to the content universe. Live camera feeds were processed and embedded into the visual worlds on stage, allowing the imagery to respond fluidly to movement and presence. 

The custom-built stage, finished in a light grey powder coat and topped with an industrial grid, concealed integrated lighting that illuminated the performers from below. A wide catwalk extended into the audience, lined with programmable kinetic lighting units that responded in sync with the visual rhythm of the show. 

The result was a scenographic system in constant motion – where architecture, technology and emotion moved together, each reinforcing the other without overshadowing the performer at its centre.
