How Cameo Lighting powered Lilas ir Innomine’s record-breaking concert in Vilnius

Five years after stepping away from the spotlight, Lithuanian hip-hop duo Lilas ir Innomine returned in spectacular fashion in 2025, drawing a crowd of around 20,000 fans to a sold-out open-air show at Vingis Park in Vilnius. The event marked the biggest concert in Lithuanian rap history to date, turning the city’s iconic park into a sea of lights, music, and celebration. Headliner takes a look at the powerful, fully weather-ready lighting setup from Cameo that helped transform the long-awaited comeback into an unforgettable live experience.

The stage at Vingis Park was more than a conventional concert venue – it became a projection surface for a musical statement. At its centre stood a semicircular structure made up of LED screens, staircases and a catwalk. Choir, dancers, special effects, lighting and video elements were brought together into a cohesive visual concept.

Behind the scenes, the visual spectacle was brought to life by Marfa Lights, which handled the lighting and video design on behalf of Baltic Production Service. The aim was to visually convey the musical dramaturgy of the show surrounding the two protagonists, Konstantinas Kiveris (Lilas) and Rolandas Venckis (Innomine), across all levels.

“Everything we design visually should contribute to telling the artist’s story,” explains Andrius Stasiulis, founder and lighting designer of Marfa Lights.

The team used Cameo ZENIT W300 and ZENIT W600 outdoor LED wash lights, OTOS B5 IP65 beam moving heads and PIXBAR SMD IP G2 LED bars, which were distributed in large numbers across the entire stage set.

The lighting concept was based on the ZENIT W600. The IP65-certified LED wash lights provided even illumination across the entire width of the stage and had “enough power to light up the entire stadium,” confirms Stasiulis.

Marfa Lights also used ZENIT W300 footlights, which ensured natural skin tones, especially for close-ups on the LED screens. PIXBAR SMD IP G2 LED bars were used for accents, pixel designs and colour gradients, and were cleverly integrated into the stage architecture.

The video design was also seamlessly integrated into the overall concept. Based on the grandMA lighting consoles and the Notch and Hippotizer software solutions, Pijus Norušis, video designer at Marfa Lights, created visual sequences that functioned like an extended lighting design: “Because we programmed the video according to the same principles as the light, we were able to create a consistent visual language throughout,” he concludes.
