High Lite Touring supplies Robe MegaPointes to “Beats for Love”

Czech rental company High Lite Touring supplied fifty Robe MegaPointe moving lights for the main Love Stage at the 2025 “Beats for Love” festival, currently the largest electronic dance music festival in central Europe, staged annually at Ostrava in the Czech Republic at the former Dolni Vitkovice steelworks.

The Love Stage design was a collaboration between the festival’s creative team and High Lite Touring, with a lighting design by Václav Olsar from High Lite Touring. Multiple LED screens were integrated into the visual environment, providing a spectacular centrepiece for the event.

When it came to lighting, there was some input from visiting artists, but Olsar was largely left to imagine the lighting scheme himself. A major inspiration for the aesthetic was the theme of love and unity. The fifty MegaPointes were rigged around the set, positioned in between the various décor elements and standing out amidst around 450 other lights on the rig.

This year’s lineup included some of the greats of the genre, including Axwell - one third of the Swedish House Mafia - who was playing “Beats for Love” for the first time, Armin van Buuren, Timmy Trumpet, and Sub Focus, as well as Belgian duo Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike who also made their debut appearance at the festival.

The “Beats for Love” stage construction took nine days to complete and involved nearly 100 people, with the show running handled by 44 specialists from all technical disciplines - audio engineers, lighting designers, media server operators, laser operators, audio, video, and lighting technicians, stage managers, operators for special effects and pyrotechnics, and stage crew.

High Lite Touring, who are based in Ostrava, have been supplying lights to “Beats for Love” since 2016. The company has a lot of Robe in its inventory, mainly MegaPointes, BMFL WashBeams, and RoboSpot systems.
