For Elbow’s arena tour, we created a powerful finale with floating illuminated spheres, bringing fans together for a personal and unforgettable moment.

We try to offer something surprising, and this really delivered. The sphere drop was exactly what we hoped for as an engaging, playful finale and something the fans seemed to really embrace. ”
