How do I select laser power for music festivals of different sizes?
Direct answerMedium-power lasers suit small festival stages. High-power RGB units are used for large outdoor stadium events, and the final figure depends on the site survey, ambient light and effect requirements.
Selection Guide by Event Scale
| Event scale | Typical requirement | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Small open-air stage | Low to medium power | Limited throw distance and audience area |
| Mid-size festival stage | Medium power | Balances visibility with safety zones |
| Large outdoor festival | High power RGB | Long throws and heavy ambient light |
| Stadium-scale production | High power with multiple units | Coverage by distribution rather than one fixture |
What the Site Survey Decides
- Throw distance from the rig to the audience and backdrop
- Ambient light level at the planned show time
- Weather exposure, which sets the required IP rating
- Audience distance, which sets the permitted output and beam height
Power is confirmed after the site survey, because the same fixture behaves very differently on a small stage and in an open field.
