This time though Għain is gearing up to host something even bigger, the 105th WorldVision Song Contest. The entire south side of the island will be dedicated to the WorldVision Song Contest with the existing Festival tal-Mużika Għain site being revamped to house even more fans, 11,000 to be exact! Only the second outdoor WV in history, Għain aims to inspire, thrill and entertain not only with music from across the multiverse but with its sheer captivating location.
The stage for the 105th WorldVision is a big one! “The work completed on the WorldVision was pretty phenomenal," says Justin McDaniel, project manager at Twenty13 production. "The entire structure of the stage is close to 150 feet wide and over 60 feet high. To clad the structure, we provided over 160 2-meter by 2-meter aluminium pyramids, each with a lighting unit and 4K tablets. Around 50,000 pixels total are included in the set, providing a massive expanse for the video content designers. ”
Twenty13 production also provided a track truss with 40’ high tracking legs with a combination of pyramids and LED screens. The matrix lifts provide a dynamic pallet for video content, stage motion, and choreography.
Countries will not have to worry about being lost on the stage as the actual main stage is 70 feet across. All the led walls; positioned in a zigzag pattern, enclose the singers in like a cave. Behind it, another huge led wall in the shape of an inverted triangle. Dismounting the stage from the centre performers can walk down the 20-foot catwalk elevated just above the audience. With panels also parallel to the public, even standing on the sides of the crowd gives a unique visual sensation.
