The lighting design for Hua Chenyu’s 2024 Mars Concert is intricately linked to the stage design and the 10th-anniversary theme, using the language of light and shadow to present the "Mars Coordinate System" in both its temporal and emotional dimensions, creating an immersive visual experience.

The lighting radiates outward from the center, evoking the warmth of the sun, symbolizing the release of life’s energy. As the music progresses, the lighting evolves from faint sparks into blazing red flames, representing the journey of life from its initial sprout to full bloom. The arrangement of the lights mimics the motion of galaxies, while the combination of linear structures creates a rich visual depth.

An extensive use of mirror balls, lasers, and light refractions produces a starry sky effect, transforming the stage into a vast cosmic universe. Meanwhile, light projections on the stage surface shift into geometric patterns. The precise placement and movement of the lighting fixtures allow red beams to expand and contract, simulating interstellar pulses and the flow of time, creating a strong sense of visual rhythm that symbolizes the evolution and growth of Martian civilization throughout the passage of time.

Additionally, the stage lighting extends to the nest-like roof structure, enveloping the audience in a world of light, enhancing the immersive experience, and making the entire venue feel like part of a boundless galaxy. The multi-layered beam design allows the lights to expand and contract like petals, symbolizing the journey from "rebirth" to "blossoming"—a metaphor for the evolution of Hua Chenyu’s Mars Concert over the past decade, leading into a new voyage.
