For this concert, the creative team of lighting designer Davy Sherwin and visual designer Robin Haddow came up with a completely new show concept that set it apart from the earlier gigs - without abandoning the stage aesthetics featured earlier in the tour. Sherwin and Haddow combined their lighting and video designs and skills to create a memorable overall impression.
Part of the electrifying Bangor show involved eight Falcon Beam searchlights attached to a truss at the rear of the stage, generating powerful wash and searchlight effects. Beside the PA system, four Falcon Beam luminaries were deployed on each side, along with six more on the stage floor. These cast their beams far out into the audience, bathing fans in a sea of differently coloured lights.
