Don Juan World Tour

Latin singer-songwriter Maluma wrapped up his highly anticipated 'Don Juan' World Tour, wowing audiences across 31 US cities from Sacramento to Miami. Renowned for infusing his work with personal meaning, Maluma's stage name pays homage to his family, with each album representing a different character. His latest persona, 'Don Juan,' embodies a more sophisticated alter ego that was reflected in the stage lighting and visuals of the tour. From hits like 'COCO LOCO' to ‘Según Quién,' Maluma took fans on a musical journey through his evolution, blending reggaeton, pop-norteño and salsa.

PRG was instrumental in realizing Maluma's vision, providing lighting, rigging, video, automation, labor and custom scenic fabrication solutions. Production Manager and Tour Designer, Chris Gratton, highlighted PRG's unmatched capabilities and global reach as key reasons for partnering with PRG. "There’s no other company that can do all these things. PRG is truly worldwide, and the support I get is bar none, so it was easy to choose a production partner like PRG."

The tour presented unique challenges, being Maluma's most elaborate production yet. With a complex stage setup involving a vast number of rigging points and automation motors, the show was ambitious in its design. One of its standout features was the innovative use of LED. PRG’s SpaceFrames®, typically built vertically, were laid down horizontally facing the audience to form an ‘M’ shape and create a more textured visual experience. The central 'V' structure, another PRG custom solution featuring CB5 panels, added an intimate touch, moving up and down to create a closer connection with the audience.

A highlight of the tour was the incorporation of custom-built structures inspired by the movie "John Wick," adding a dynamic and visually striking element to the stage. PRG worked within a tight timeframe, designing and bringing these structures to life in a two-week period.
