It’s to be decorated with 3 LED screens 24 square meters each. This allows changing the appearance of the stage almost immediately. The arena itself is spectacular, and it is round-shaped. This is the rarest kind of sound arenas in the whole world, and at the same time it’s the most challenging one since it requires a more difficult sound mastering, which has to be outstanding.”
