Two Vic Festivals Are Easing Strobe Lights Changing Stage Techniques To Be More Inclusive

Two music festivals in Victoria are actively working to become more accessible and inclusive by easing the use of strobe lights for future events. The decision comes after an artist called out the problematic lighting while on stage and punters followed up with feedback to the festival. File this one under “things you simply love to see”. The shift away from hard strobe lighting comes after Melbourne outfit Our Carlson tore other artists a new one for using lights that can trigger seizures during his set at Meredith in late 2022. “If any of you have got strobe lights in your sets you’re fuckin’ ableist … If you see someone using strobes later, normalise booing and just boo ’em,” Carlson said, per The Guardian
