PLANET ZERO WORLD TOUR

Shinedown’s stage show is always incredible – from the lighting to the pyro and of course the musicianship of the band, Shinedown is always on point and they always deliver a solid performance.

PROCESS

For the Planet Zero tour, we aimed to create a stark, minimal base stage where all production elements were deliberately concealed. Floor lighting and pyro boards were hidden beneath a grated deck, and even the drum riser was out of sight as fans entered the venue. Overhead lighting was trimmed high and flat above, leaving only a tall, narrow, blank monolith as the visual centerpiece—stripped-down and mysterious by design.

As the show began, the monolith came to life—illuminating, splitting open, and marking the true start of the experience. The band emerged from within, as if stepping out of another dimension. Throughout the night, the stage continually transformed in unexpected, futuristic ways, reflecting the otherworldly themes of the Planet Zero album and immersing the audience in a space beyond reality.
