Miami in March? You already know the energy’s unreal. But this year, Volux Lighting showed up ready to do more than just vibe—they came to own the moment. And they didn’t just stick to one stage. From the towering madness of Ultra’s RESISTANCE Megastructure to the curated chaos of Mana Wynwood, Volux fixtures were everywhere.
From the Megastructure to Mana: One Brand, Two Big Statements. We were on the ground for the whole thing. Here’s how it played out.
A Full-Throttle Flex at Ultra’s Megastructure
At one of the week’s most technically intense stages, Volux pulled up with over 200 fixtures, proving they’re ready to hang with the biggest names in the game.
LD Evan Bloom led the lighting direction for the RESISTANCE Megastructure, where more than 220 Volux units were integrated into a beast of a rig that spanned across one of the most iconic structures in festival production.

50+ Physos
40+ Phantom
60+ Flaris 1XK
60+ Flaris Blade
4+ Phantra
This wasn’t a show-and-tell. It was a stress test. With rotating headliners and guest LDs calling shots in real time, the gear had to be flexible, reliable, and fast. And it delivered.
Phantoms blended tight beams and wide washes with ease, while the Flaris 1XK fixtures nailed bold color looks and seamless warm/cold white effects. Flaris Blades kept motion moving with pixel-mapped speed, and Physos cut clean through heavy atmospheres with precise, textured beams that didn’t get lost in the chaos.
Additionally, Phantra units covered the world famous Ultra Angles for their choreographed and acrobatic performances throughtout the sets.
The Surprise MVP: Physos
Let’s talk about the fixture that really had us talking. Most IP-rated profiles are built like tanks—and move like them, too. But Physos flipped that idea on its head. Fast zoom transitions, tight cue hits, and rapid repositioning made them feel more like a nimble indoor unit than a bulky outdoor warrior.
Even in a massive rig, the Physos found ways to stand out. Whether pushing sharp aerials, tracking high-tempo cues, or hammering drops with punchy strobe looks, they didn’t just show up—they swung for the fences. Its fast response time made it a reliable choice for high-tempo cueing. Whether it was driving strobe sweeps across the grid or accenting drops with sharp positional hits, the Physos held its own.
Mana Wynwood: High Octane Miami Music Week Energy
While Ultra was all scale and spectacle, Mana Wynwood was gritty, intimate, and built for the Miami Music Week vibe. This stage needed fixtures that could go hard without going overboard—and once again, Volux gear delivered, provided by FJ Productions.

This wasn’t a small rig—it was a setup built around creating the room’s energy. Spyra 2 made a presence here, impressing with consistent, focused beams. The Flaris 1XK became a visual standout in the room—its warm white plate blinder mode gave us that warm blinder effect we all love. Meanwhile, Flaris Blades added punch and pixel energy, keeping things wild when the drops hit. The venue also featured a massive Vizra-4 X Tour LED wall by DVS LED Systems, Volux’s sister brand.
From Ultra to Underground, Volux Delivered
What stood out most across both venues? Range. Volux fixtures weren’t locked into one kind of look or one type of show—they adapted. From the expansive, high-pressure Megastructure to the tightly curated vibes of Mana Wynwood, Volux’s lineup flexed its strength. Even Volux & DVS founder Zach Delzotti—an LD turned industry leader—jumped on the MA3 to run a set himself, field-testing his own fixtures in real time.
We saw texture, speed, and precision. And real intention. Whether it was LD Evan Bloom orchestrating large-format spectacle or Mana’s more high-octane and raw vibe, the gear rose to the moment.
