AFC Asian Cup 2023 Opening Ceremony | Stage design & content production
Sila Sveta embarked on an ambitious journey to redefine the spectacle of sports opening ceremonies with the AFC Asian Cup Qatar 2023 at Lusail Stadium. In partnership with Katara Studios, we crafted a celebration that transcended traditional football openings, blending complex stage setups with theatrical magnificence. Learn more about that event on our website: https://www.silasveta.com/projects/afc-asian-cup-2023-opening-ceremony. The centerpiece, 'The Lost Chapter of Kelileh & Demneh', wove a tapestry of unity between the East and Asia, incorporating symbols from sand dunes to sakura petals into its design. Our innovative shell-shaped screens nodded to Qatar's pearl diving past, offering a 360-degree view that symbolized the unity of the AFC's regional federations. The ceremony's visual narrative, aligned with the 'Kelileh & Demneh' musical, delved into themes of self-acceptance and the beauty of diversity, creating rich, metaphorical imagery that mirrored and enhanced the onstage action.
