Production

Stage design

The stage design for The Era World Tour combined elements of avant-garde futurism and medieval aesthetics. Chou appeared as a time-traveler navigating through dimensions of time and space, while the stage visuals conceptualized around the themes of a "future world" and a spaceship. The design also integrated elements such as "medieval century" and rock and roll.

As Chou's previous concerts in Taipei were mostly held outdoors, with the Era World Tour marking his debut performance at the Taipei Arena. Chou utilized new visual effects for the concerts, integrating projection art content with the use of over 2,000 LEDs and "360-degree floating stereoscopic imaging," which projected a three-dimensional image into the air from all directions, offering fans an immersive 360-degree viewing experience. These visual effects created the illusion of Chou traversing different times and spaces.
