High-tech stage design creates a stunning visual feast as Asian popular singers gathered for three days of music passion
MACAU SAR - Media OutReach Newswire - 22 July 2024 - Galaxy Arena, Macau's newest and largest indoor arena, has consistently attracted top-tier domestic and international artists and production companies with its state-of-the-art facilities since its opening. This July, Galaxy Arena once again became the focal point for global music enthusiasts with the great success of the Tencent Music Entertainment Awards 2024 (hereafter referred to as "TMEA"). Taking place from July 19 to 21, the event featured a two-day indoor music festival followed by a music awards ceremony, delivering an unprecedented musical extravaganza. The star-studded lineup and lively interactions between fans and artists.
Hosted by Tencent Music Entertainment Group ("TME"), TMEA was launched in 2019. In 2023, TME live, TME's live music platform, entered a three-year strategic partnership with Galaxy Arena, aiming to provide an unparalleled performance and experience for millions of enthusiasts through innovative stage design, music production, and immersive atmosphere. This year, TMEA moved its music festival indoors for the first time, offering fans a visual and auditory feast that combines cutting-edge technology and innovative artistry.
With the theme "High Five. Music Drive," TMEA 2024 carried its mission to unite with millions of music fans, fostering beautiful emotions through music. The lineup for the music festival on July 19 featured over 20 groups of artists and musicians, including Awich, BOYHOOD, BOYNEXTDOOR, CHANYEOL, ILLIT, Chikada Rikimaru, NCT WISH, NMIXX, SUPER JUNIOR – D&E, VIIS and Fei Fei Wang, delivering captivating live performances. On the following day, artists such as BABYMONSTER, BoA, BOY STORY, Epik High, PERSES, Sunnee, Ikimono-gakari, VIVA, Yao Chen, ZEROBASEONE, SANTA and ØZI created a top-tier live show for the audience. The music awards ceremony on July 21 honored artists who made outstanding contributions in music creation, performance, and production over the past year, paying tribute to musical craftsmanship.
Stage design was definitely another highlight of this year's TMEA. Audiences were captivated by the stunning 3D naked-eye effects and transparent LED ice screens, which created a futuristic music world. The main screen, resembling a pair of wings, opened and closed freely to form different stage effects, spanning the entire width of the arena for a layered visual experience. When lighting and images were projected through the transparent ice screens, it added a mysterious and fantastical touch to the stage.
The production team utilized various mechanical structures to create a more dimensional 3D naked-eye space. This technology made every detail on stage vivid and lifelike, allowing the audience to enjoy vibrant 3D effects without any special equipment. The application of this technology not only enhanced the visual impact of the performances but also perfectly combined music and visual arts, offering a fresh sensory experience every moment.
These effects were made possible by the state-of-the-art hardware facilities of Galaxy Arena. Spanning nearly 3,250 square meters and standing 28 meters tall, the venue offers high flexibility for event setup. Its advanced high-definition broadcast technology and unobstructed design provide a 360-degree audiovisual experience for the audience. The flexible suspension system, capable of supporting up to 140 tons, ensures a safe and worry-free event environment.
Galaxy Arena has been actively supporting Macau's development as a "City of Performing Arts" by introducing diverse and impactful cultural and artistic events. This aligns with the Macau SAR government's "1+4" strategy, aiming to bring new growth drivers to Macau. The strategic partnership with TME live is a significant initiative in this endeavor. The three-day TMEA event attracted thousands of music enthusiasts from around the world, creating special memories for this summer at Galaxy Macau and showcasing the power of the "Tourism + Entertainment" integration.
