Creative Technology and Dua Lipa: Delivering a Global Visual Spectacle for the Radical Optimism Tour

Dua Lipa’s Radical Optimism Tour is already the biggest of her career. Before even reaching the Americas, captivating audiences across 44 shows throughout Asia, Oceania, and Europe. Behind this extraordinary success is a touring production that needed to be every bit as ambitious and consistent as Dua’s vision. Creative Technology (CT) has been central to making that possible, delivering the complete video system and service that brought the show to life.

A Longstanding Partnership

Creative Technology’s relationship with Dua Lipa’s team dates back to 2017. In that time, the production has evolved dramatically, from a simple projector set-up to a stadium-scale spectacle. That long history of collaboration meant trust was already strong as planning for Radical Optimism began. The working relationship remained excellent throughout pre-production. Communication was clear and collaborative from the start, letting both sides focus on creative solutions instead of troubleshooting. This foundation of trust enabled Dua Lipa’s team to aim high, confident that CT would deliver on every requirement.

Meeting the Client’s Global Needs

The Radical Optimism Tour spanned multiple continents before its European run began. That demanded a production system capable of maintaining consistent, high-quality visuals wherever it travelled.

CT designed the system in London, ensuring all components could be matched regionally. In Australia and New Zealand, for example, local partners like Big Picture delivered equivalent ROE LED screens, maintaining continuity across the tour.
