Music fans filled the Monterey County Fairgrounds on May 23rd, 2026, as Rebelution brought their signature sound to California Roots Music and Arts Festival. From the first song to the final moments of the set, the atmosphere across Monterey felt vibrant, relaxed, and full of energy.
The crowd moved together throughout the night. Melodies echoed through the venue. And the ocean-side festival setting added even more to the experience.
Visual Production Across the Festival Grounds
Enhancing the performance was a powerful laser system featuring:
- 8 × 58-watt KVANT Atom lasers
- 4 × 6-watt KVANT Clubmax lasers with PASS
Throughout the evening, bright aerial effects stretched across the fairgrounds and above the audience. Some sequences created large open-sky visuals. Others added focused movement around the stage during key musical moments.
As a result, the production helped shape the mood of the performance while keeping the crowd fully engaged.
The Team Behind the Lasers
Operating the laser setup were Mitchell Blakemore and Justice Park, who managed the visuals throughout the show.
Timing remained consistent from start to finish. Visual transitions flowed naturally with the music. And the production continued to complement the atmosphere of the festival without overpowering it.
A Perfect Fit for Cali Roots
As the night continued, the combination of reggae music, immersive visuals, and the Monterey backdrop created a memorable festival experience for everyone in attendance.
By the end of the set, Rebelution and the production team helped turn another Cali Roots evening into a moment fans will remember long after the festival weekend ended.
