Over Sixty intelligent lights were utilised including Robe ColorWash 575ATs, ColorSpot 575ATs and Spot 250XTs, all run though a PC lighting controller.
The lighting gear used for the concert included some equipment permanently installed in the venue, which was augmented with additional kit supplied by south east Queensland-based rental and production company, Dominica. All the show's lighting and media server requirements were designed and operated by Luke Criss and programmed by John Buchanan, both from Dominica.
Most of the ColorWash and ColorSpot 575AT lights were rigged over-stage on several large lighting trusses, and Spot 250XTs illuminated the stage from upstage truss positions and from the floor. Additional ColorWash and ColorSpot 575ATs were placed on both sides of the stage and used for dramatic cross-stage beam and gobo effects. A selection of custom Christmas-themed gobos was supplied by Gobotech.
