Every year, Tomorrowland showcases the latest in live event production, and the 2026 MainStage continued that tradition. Built around this year's Consciencia theme, the stage measured over 140 metres wide and 43 metres high, featuring 56 lasers, 38 fountains and six large sculptures representing the Consciencia emotions: wonder, love, joy, anger and desire.

An extensive rig of Ayrton fixtures formed the backbone of the lighting design, providing the performance and flexibility needed for a production of this scale.

The rig featured an impressive combination of:

• 165 Ayrton Veloce
• 117 Ayrton Nando 502 Wash
• 25 Ayrton Mamba

Together, these fixtures provided everything from razor-sharp aerial beams and long-throw effects to rich colours and precise key lighting, perfectly complementing the MainStage's dynamic design. Whether illuminating the towering scenic elements or cutting through the festival's signature pyrotechnics and atmospheric effects, Ayrton fixtures delivered flawless performance throughout both festival weekends.

Productions on the scale of Tomorrowland demand lighting solutions that are powerful, reliable and versatile. Ayrton once again proved why its fixtures are trusted by the world's leading lighting designers for the most demanding live events.
