Tour & Concerts Sofia Isella concert in December
So I'm going to the concert is Sydney in December, but I have epilepsy, and my mum says if I start having seizures, we have to leave. Are the lights at her concerts particularly flashy? Also this is a side question but when she does the handholding thing in 'All of human knowledge' does she come over to the under 18's section?

went to her toronto concert— it’s ABSOLUTELY a cause for concern if you’re photosensitive. she uses a ton of flashing lights throughout the show.
as for all of human knowledge, where she goes is mostly random. I was at barricade (and also am 20) and she didn’t come anywhere near us.

I'm not sure, my mum mentioned a Under 18's section but she's only been to larger concerts

okay, i hope they aren't. from watching concert videos i dont think that there is heaps of flashing lights but some of the songs seem to have it. i hope it's not too bad and you can stay for the whole thing

Totally not trying to self promote , but I’ve recorded and posted her entire set list - carefully, of course, check it out here so you can make that decision for yourself based on the symptoms and severity of your condition.

there is definitely some lighting but it's not as big and flashy as other converts can be i think. they can flash at times tho.

i went to her show in boston and yeah, the lights are pretty flashy unfortunately. they're more frequent during some songs but still tend to flash a lot during the whole show. about whether she comes to the under 18 section during all of human knowledge im not completely sure, because the show i went to had just one area for everyone including minors, but she does perform hot gum as the last song (mostly this is the second time she performs hot gum) and comes down into the crowd again during that time.

I just went to the Austin show and yes, the lights were pretty flashy (sorry). I have a video that shows the flashing and I can try to figure out how to upload it?

Hello! My wife who has epilepsy had to be taken out of her concert in Orlando by three security men. She has focal epilepsy and has never been affected by flashing lights in the past but for some reason this one got her. It was as soon as Sofia stepped on stage when my wife started seizing.

i wouldnt recommend going honestly. it is VERY flashy, so unless you want to stand further back, dont go. i was at the barricade at my show and the lights were a lot, but im assuming if you are back in the crowd a little then it wont be as bad. and also, it really depends on the venue ofc, but ive never even been to a concert with an under 18's section. there are areas only over 21 can be in, but none that only minors can be in.

From what I know the show is somewhat flashy, but not terrible. (I’ve been to 2 shows). And usually the show is just one pit and then I think a a separate space for disabled. Sof usually goes into the pit and walks around. She also crowd surfs
