Winter Glow
A Glowing Winter Wonderland!
Winter Glow promises to be an unforgettable experience that will transport you to another world. Imagine being surrounded by a continuous UV reactive snowfall from overhead, while over 100 gallons of UV reactive blue paint is poured from the stage. The high-energy winter vibe dance music, expertly curated and played by Operation Glow Chicago Concert DJs, is guaranteed to take you on a musical journey that will keep you moving all night. Not only that, but a talented second or student DJ will be opening the show to set the perfect tone for the commencement of Winter Glow.
But Winter Glow isn’t just about the music. There is a dazzling array of visual effects that will leave you breathless. An LED video wall displaying a countdown to the start of the show will then transform into winterizing motion graphic visuals, all accompanied by a live video jockey who will incorporate a live feed of the audience. The Class IV government-regulated laser show in blue and white will mix with the snow, and the Blue and white confetti storm and streamer blast out of charged air cannons will create a truly magical ambiance. Finally, the CO2/Cryo blasts will chill the room, and the Atomic strobe lights, blinders, moving light fixtures, color wash fixtures, and UV cannons will all contribute to creating maximum visual effect. You don’t want to miss this unique opportunity to be part of Winter Glow!
Why Pick Operation Glow?
- Increased Duration: This mission operates in a longer duration from most missions. An opening or student DJ will spin for the first 30-45 minutes before Operation Glow commences in full force and effect.
- Effect Heavy: You’ve been warned. This mission is extreme and has been known to change lives. We use a LOT of special effects, loud music, and tons of energy.

- Indoor or Outdoor: This mission can be performed indoors or outdoors. Some levels require an enclosure.
