The process of installing the new system was carefully coordinated, with a six-month mock-up testing to ensure seamless integration. The upgraded system features dynamic RGBW technology, replacing static lights with colour-changing, addressable fixtures to create complex lighting effects.

Recently, YouTuber Jimmy Donaldson — known globally as MrBeast — accomplished a breathtaking feat by climbing the iconic tower.
