The Luxurious Marble Circus Magic. Captured with The Samsung Galaxy Z8 Series

Magic, music, colour and spectacle came together as the Luxurious Marble Circus transformed Ground (the venue) in Muldersdrift into a playground of live performances, circus acts, great food, art and unexpected moments around every corner. Samsung Galaxy joined the festivities to provide festival-goers with innovative and fresh ways to capture the magic and electric excitement.

Capturing the Magic with the Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra

For the first time at the Luxurious Marble Circus, Samsung created a Galaxy Hangout Imaginarium— a content creation hub designed to flip and fold the imagination. The crowds at the Imaginarium and around the festival grounds were introduced to the charms of the Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra as roaming promoters captured EVOPHORIA of the festival with the epic 200MP camera system.  

For some, it was the first time meeting the Galaxy Z Fold8, a smartphone that fluidly shapeshifts for digital explorers, seamlessly matching the ways one creates, watches and enjoys content. Creators leaned into the playful versatility of this passport-sized device, snapping high-quality 50MP main camera selfies that highlighted their experiences at the Hangout Imaginarium. It is the lightest Galaxy foldable phone yet¹.

Visitors could step into the wonder of the Galaxy Z Flip8 by playing with features like FlexMode to take high-quality main camera selfies that showed the fine details of their OOTDs (Outfits of The Day) and foodie experiences. Of course, FlexMode and folding phones are old tricks that other mobile phone makers have only recently caught up with. The Galaxy Z8 Series has next-level features like Super Steady with Horizontal Lock (first introduced in the Galaxy S26) or Dual Recording—where users could utilize both the front and rear cameras simultaneously with real-time split-screen previews on the expansive main display—that festivalgoer used to capture their unique POVs of the live performances and foodie delights.

As daylight gave way to the electric energy of the evening, the festival took on another personality. Fireworks lit up the sky, DJs took over the stage and performers moved through the crowds, creating fleeting moments that demanded to be captured. With Nightography, Super Steady with Horizontal Lock and My FanCam², Galaxy gave festival-goers tools designed to keep up with the action.

The Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra, Galaxy Z Fold8 and Galaxy Z Flip8 proved to be the ultimate companions for the modern concertgoer, showcasing how mobile technology has evolved to intuitively serve and elevate live entertainment experiences. From zooming into the performers with the 50MP cameras, to auto-framing dynamic wide-angle shots of the festival grounds to capturing split-second magical moments and then turning that into shareable content that expressed individuality. With these devices the vibrancy of the Luxurious Marble Circus was captured and shared in stunning detail, demonstrating that with Samsung Galaxy there are truly no bad seats.

 Pocket-Sized Galaxy Magic All Summer Long

The best part is that the magic doesn’t have to end when the festival gates close. Those who visited the Galaxy Hangout Imaginarium and took selfies stood a chance to walk away with mobile magic they could literally pocket by winning a Galaxy Z Fold8³. Whether you win or decide to purchase one of the Galaxy Z Fold8 Series phones, get ready to capture memories all summer long and enjoy the spirit of the Imaginarium for many summers to come.
