The award-winning rap artist ibe's return to the stages was anything but modest, starting from the venue itself. The visually ambitious production found its setting at Veikkaus Arena, delivering an artistically rich and powerful experience that lived up to all expectations - a performance that will undoubtedly be talked about for a long time. We worked as part of ibe's design team, serving as a key creative partner in shaping and bringing the show’s vision to life. In addition, we delivered the lighting design and were responsible for operating the lighting and videos, as well as IMAG direction - ensuring a seamless and immersive visual experience throughout the performance. The concert was produced by SKM and Live Nation, with N/A leading the design concept, set design, and overall creative direction. We believe we’re not alone in saying that there is real strength in collaboration!

Let's take a moment to remember the two unforgettable August nights in Helsinki. Ultra Bra reunited with tens of thousands of fans — and we were proud to support the creative team behind the visuals. From lighting, IMAG direction to screen content assistance, Visual45's role was to make both, Ultra Bra and their design vision, shine on stage. A privilege to back up such an inspiring production.
