Will opposing team fans or away supporters participate in the Light Show?

CUE generally sees away fans participating in Light Show activations, though participation rates among visiting supporters can vary by market and venue. The Light Show is inherently a fun, communal experience that transcends team loyalty — many away fans get swept up in the atmosphere and join in regardless of their allegiance, especially at family-friendly events where the spectacle appeals to all attendees. However, participation from away fans cannot be guaranteed for every match. The good news is that CUE's Light Show only needs approximately 15% of the stadium to participate for it to look impressive. For a 14,000-seat stadium, that's roughly 2,000 fans — a threshold that's easily achievable with engaged home supporters alone. Any away fan participation simply amplifies an already impressive effect and creates an even more memorable moment for everyone in attendance, but it's not required for the activation to succeed.
