    SAADIYAT MUSIC FESTIVAL

    Abu Dhabi, UAE · 2023

    The Project

    Saadiyat Music Festival. Abu Dhabi, UAE.

    Jennifer Lopez, Christina Aguilera, Mariah Carey. The lighting design for an international festival that put TRAZZO on the global stage.

    The Challenge

    The UAE partnership started with content, not cold outreach.

    Karen's work was speaking to international audiences. Now she needed projects that matched the ambition.
