YUNG BLUD’s 2023 World Tour

For an immersive display like no other, Neg Earth are proud to be the providers of the lighting, rigging and control for YUNGBLUD’s 2023 World tour. 

With a sell-out first show on 16 February in Cardiff, Wales, rock sensation YUNGBLUD began his world arena tour 2023 in style, with fans rocking up from all over the UK for an unforgettable pop-punk performance. From Glasgow OVO Hydro to OVO Arena Wembley, headliner YUNGBLUD has spoiled his fans with a 20-song setlist as well as introducing award-winning Neck Deep in the support slot. Being one of the UK’s leading pop-punk bands, Neck Deep are well placed to compliment this truly spectacular world tour. 

The powerful and electrifying Chauvet Color Strike M has been interspersed throughout the rig, but it is the Ayrton Magic Panel R that commands centre stage. These high-performance Ayrton fixtures feature a collection of LEDs which enable a striking rotation of visual effects used to great effect by the show’s designers. Dominating the upstage were 3 stacked trusses with a powerful combination of the Chauvet Color Strike M,  Ayrton Domino, and a 20k Tungsten Power Beam perched in between, projecting its immense beam onto the drummer, Michael Rennie, evoking a 70’s rock nostalgia for devoted fans. In addition, the unique Film Gear Tungsten Power Beam 24k 20kW, created a dramatic display with a striking contrast of spot-to-flood lighting, giving a motion-picture effect whilst complementing the industrial atmosphere of the show.  

With the world arena tour underway, YUNGBLUD will be travelling to France, Spain, Italy and more, to perform at his sell-out shows. Neg Earth are joining the tour to help stage designer Sam Tozer’s desired vision come to life.
