Shot at Escape 2023 inside the NOS Events Center, this highlight reel captures the full cycle — from the build to the breakdown, and the chaos in between. LED walls going up, lights testing, cables everywhere — then showtime. This is what it looks like before the music hits and after the crowd disappears. Akari handles LED design, build, and control for some of the biggest EDM festivals in Southern California. What you’re watching isn’t staged — it’s the real work behind the visuals that make the night come alive.
