Taipei, Taiwan

A city of light. A club built around it.

The Neon carry the illuminated lettering of the city into the ballpark. Coral lines trace an ivory jersey; an embroidered N sits on a black cap. Above the stands, VELLO’s rings put the same shape and color to work at stadium scale.

The roster brings players from across the league’s world to Taipei. The club’s home is specific; its players come from far beyond it.

The N

Black fabric, a dark letter, an ivory border, and a narrow coral line. A small embroidered ring sits at the side.

The home and alternate jerseys carry NEON across the chest. TAIPEI travels on the gray road jersey. Coral piping connects all three.

Home ballpark

VELLO Stadium

The domed home of Taipei Neon, with suspended VELLO rings, packed stands, and a dark outfield wall
Smoked glass overhead. Obsidian beyond center field. Coral light above the seating bowl.

The dome

A smoked translucent roof rests on an exposed steel lattice. Daylight reaches the bowl through the glass; after dark, the ring lights reflect across its underside. Taipei remains visible beyond the perimeter glazing.

The wall and the field

Polished obsidian slabs catch color along the outfield. A matte center-field batter’s eye keeps the pitcher’s backdrop dark. White light covers the playing field; coral belongs to the stands and roof.

Between innings · Around the bowl

The game stays in sight.

Families and friends pass beef-noodle, scallion-pancake, and tea stalls on VELLO Stadium’s open concourse, with the baseball field visible beside them

A bowl before the next inning

Steam rises behind the counters. Beef noodles, scallion pancakes, and cold tea travel back toward the seats. At the rail, fans balance a tray and keep an eye on the next pitch.

One more lap

The concourse follows the seating bowl beneath the glass. Open sightlines let a conversation continue without losing the game; the city appears beyond the roof’s steel lattice.

Fans of different ages watch the diamond from VELLO Stadium’s concourse rail, with a clear route behind them and coral audio rings overhead

Home VELLO audio ring with a thick charcoal housing, open center, coral neon glass, and a physical dial

VELLO

Immersive sound, carried by light.

A thick charcoal ring. An open center. A continuous neon tube recessed along its inner edge. One physical dial.

The neon carries the audio signal and the timing that connects each ring. Optical receivers read the light; concealed speaker arrays turn that signal into sound.

Working together, the rings place sound above, beside, and around the listener. At home, the ring stands in a cradle. At VELLO Stadium, enormous rings suspend that listening space beneath the dome.

VELLO · Stereo sound study

Hear the First Circuit.

Three notes travel from left to right above the murmur of the crowd. Percussion answers around the circuit, applause builds, and the coral rings settle together.

Ready when you are.

01 · Encode

Light carries the signal.

Tiny changes in the neon’s light encode audio and timing, too fast for the eye to see. The coral glow is the visible carrier.

02 · Synchronize

Each ring reads the light.

Optical receivers keep the rings in step. Concealed speaker arrays produce the sound you hear.

03 · Immerse

The rings shape the space.

Coordinated output gives a sound its position and movement: above, beside, approaching, receding. You stand inside the arrangement.

Around the park

Glow brings the light.

Glow, Taipei’s gray cat mascot with coral-lit whiskers, ear edges, paw pads, and three glowing tail rings, high-fives a young fan beneath the VELLO rings
Glow · Coral whiskers, glowing high-fives, and a tail that echoes the rings

A familiar glow in every section

Coral light traces the ears and whiskers. Soft paw pads glow with every raised high-five; three luminous bands circle a fluffy gray tail. Coral piping and embroidered letters pick up the light from the VELLO rings overhead. Rumpled gray fur, stitched cuffs, and scuffed ivory sneakers keep the costume familiar up close.

Still a gray cat in sneakers with a whole season on them. Glow moves through the aisles instead of waiting beside the dugout, stopping for high-fives, photographs, and the occasional stolen seat.

On the final lap after a home win, Glow walks against the flow of the crowd. Everyone gets one more high-five on the way out.

Benny Lo

Benny Lo · The Lo Note · Postgame at VELLO Stadium

A big voice. An easy command of the room.

Benny Lo can hold a room with a low note and bring it to its feet with the next chorus. His set moves from brass-heavy soul to sweeping Mandarin ballads, backed by a live band that knows when to lean in and when to leave him the floor.

Sharp tailoring, an open collar, and photochromic glasses are his signatures. So is the pause before the final chorus, when he turns the microphone toward the seats and lets the crowd take over.

“Taipei, let me hear you.”

On residency nights, Benny takes a field-level stage beside the warning track after the final out. The diamond stays in view, the band settles in, and VELLO carries his voice around the bowl.

His full set leads into The Lo Note, the Neon’s recurring karaoke contest. A fan gets the microphone, Benny joins the chorus, and the ballpark becomes the backing choir.

Karaoke with Benny Lo

The Lo Note

Start on the concourse. Sing for the stands. Earn a duet with Benny.

  1. Concourse qualifiers

    Find your song.

    Before the game on residency dates, short concourse auditions select three finalists. Each chooses a Mandarin or English song from the night’s karaoke list.

  2. Postgame spotlight

    Take the microphone.

    After Benny’s set, each finalist sings a verse and a chorus on the field-level stage. Benny hosts, a stage monitor carries the lyrics, and the crowd chooses the night’s winner by applause. The winner stays for an encore with Benny.

  3. Season finale

    Bring the chorus home.

    Winners return for the season’s final Lo Note. One singer earns the closing duet with Benny; when he turns the microphone toward the stands, everyone joins the last chorus.

Three ways the park answers.

Before first pitch

The First Circuit

A three-note VELLO phrase passes around the seating bowl. Each section answers with one clap as it arrives. The circuit closes before the opening pitch.

Seventh-inning stretch

The Ring Roll

Fans stand in sequence around the upper deck, raising both arms into an O. The lower bowl answers on the second pass. Glow is usually a section late.

After a home win

The Long Way Home

The rings settle to steady coral. Fans take one more lap of the open concourse, past the food stalls and the city beyond the glass. Glow makes the same lap in reverse.

Ring Night 霓虹之夜

Palm-sized charcoal VELLO ring with a coral neon core and black bag strap, resting on bilingual ivory packaging marked Ring Night and 霓虹之夜

A little piece of the sound.

A palm-sized charcoal ring with a coral neon core. Clip it to a bag or wear it on its strap. Issued at the gate on Ring Night, it becomes part of the park’s opening cue.

Its optical receiver picks up the same light-carried signal that connects the stadium rings. When the First Circuit reaches your section, your ring lights and plays its note.

One circuit around the bowl. Thousands of small rings answering back. Take yours home after the final out.

The Cefiro

A 1996 Nissan Cefiro A32, built in Taiwan by Yulon, gives Roi’s exhibition car a connection to home. The four-door silhouette remains; banana-yellow paint, oversized chrome wheels, and custom hydraulics transform its stance. VELLO spans the doors, with pixel palms at the rear quarter.

Open the trunk and the sponsor becomes part of the machinery: two charcoal VELLO audio rings, coral-lit inner rims, and a fitted amplifier bay. The car carries its own listening space onto the stadium forecourt.

A controlled lift, a held angle, and three points planted. The Tripod Lean is Roi’s signature. Taipei’s DONK record includes Best Style at the league championship.
