Saddle up for a star-studded 2024 Houston Rodeo! At the heart of one of the world’s largest live stock and rodeo events set in NRG Stadium, sits an iconic star-shaped stage that features a central 48’ turntable surrounded by seven 23’ tall light towers with vertically tracking LED tiles. Star points, extending 37’ and hydraulically actuated, can pivot from horizontal to vertical, with a counter-rake platform for performers. The mobile pentagon-shaped base structure includes drive trailers, a circular track, and a hub deck assembly. Additionally, a tech deck with a pantograph cable guide system provides a 56’ wide x 24’ deep space between Star Points. The design integrates hydraulic systems, LED technology, and mobile infrastructure for a visually striking and versatile stage.
