A SHOW STOPPING EVENT
KOJO partnered with EuroLeague Basketball to create motion design content for the 2026 EuroLeague Final Four at the Telekom Center in Athens, delivering world-class visuals throughout the venue, including content for a 7K LED ASB GlassFloor.
As the ceremonies delivery partner, KOJO produced two show-stopping opening ceremonies for the event featuring DJ performances from ARGY and Dimitri Vegas respectively, accompanied by electrifying visuals across the stadium screens. The creative approach centred on delivering a cinematic experience, combining bold storytelling with immersive motion design to transform the arena and amplify the energy of the event.
The tournament provided a powerful platform to engage a global audience and showcase KOJO’s creative and technical capabilities on one of basketball’s biggest stages.

HOW IT WAS MADE
The KOJO motion team built the champion ceremony as a six minute projection mapped sequence spanning the whole arena. The team mapped a 7K glass floor in Cinema 4D with dedicated UV passes, locking every pixel to the surface, then pushed the show out across stadium LEDs and screen content on a single timeline. Four creative themes ran in parallel, each handled by a different artist. The work spanned 2D lightshow FX and edit driven design through to full 3D particle systems in Houdini. Every frame was cut to precise timings and synced live with dancers on the floor. The team delivered high end design at scale, rendered and mapped to fit the arena exactly.
IN GAME GRAPHICS
Beyond the opening ceremonies, KOJO designed and delivered a suite of event assets, including player profile content for all Final Four teams and trophy presentation visuals for both the EuroLeague Final Four and NextGen competitions. Each asset was crafted to be visually striking while remaining aligned with the EuroLeague brand, creating a cohesive visual ecosystem that immersed audiences in the world of the Final Four well before, and long after, tip-off.
