Stage Version 1

The first version of the stage featured a main stage, followed by a short runway that leads to a B-Stage, which then branched out into two small octagonal stages. The main stage features 4 moving screens with 5 additional angled screens further back. The B-Stage also features a wraparound rectangular screen capable of moving up and down, as well as the ability to activate pyrotechnics. Both the main stage as well as the B-stage had 6 rectangular lifts each, capable of being moved up and down as required during certain sequences in the show.

Stage Version 2

The second version of the stage was a simplified version of the first, featuring a main stage, followed by a short runway that lead to a rectangular B-Stage. The main stage featured 4 moving screens with 5 additional angle screens further back. The B-Stage did not have the wraparound rectangular screen, neither did it have the two octagonal stages featured in the first version of the stage. The main stage had 6 rectangular lifts, capable of being moved up and down as required during certain sequences in the show.

Lighting

Both versions of the stage had similar lighting effects. The main stage featured 12 lower spotlights and 36 upper spotlights on its edge, followed by 20 more moving spotlights further back. The main stage also featured 20 washes, while the runway and B-stage had a total of 12 washes. The rectangular truss above the B-stage had a total of 24 moving spotlights. The main stage had 51 LED bars, 10 at its edge, 20 further back and 21 above the stage. The rectangular truss above the B-stage has 15 LED bars and 11 large spotlights, while the truss above the runway featured 3 more large spotlights.

Pyrotechnics

The main stage featured 8 locations for confetti cannons, while the B-stage featured 6. The B-stage featured 6 firework locations, the runway had another 8, and the main stage also had an additional 8 locations. The movable screen above the B-stage also had a mechanism which allowed for confetti to be dispersed at different rates.

Reception

In the review of The Korea Times, Pyo Kyung-min wrote that "the concert hall was filled up by elementary school students and the atmosphere inside IVE's performance arena mirrored the group's moniker, "kids' president."[9]

Jeff Benjamin of Billboard described the group's concert at their sold out show in Prudential Center as a reminder that IVE has already carved out a distinct identity and color as the prom queens of K-pop and isn’t so easily able to adopt other personas in the pop sphere.[10]

Jack Wetherill of Daily Star praised the group's concert at The O2 Arena saying that "I've been to countless concerts in my 31 years, but I can safely say IVE at The O2 was the best I've ever seen". He furthermore complimented the group's performance, writing, "It was impossible to feel sad. From the incredible, crystal-embellished stage outfits, to the clear vocals and precise choreography, there wasn't a second to be bored or underwhelmed”.[11]

Gabriel Saulog of Billboard Philippines wrote that the Manila stop of the ‘SHOW WHAT I HAVE’ tour was more than just a concert; it was a celebration of the bond between IVE and their DIVES, He furthermore compliment the group's concert saying "The concert was a testament to their dedication and talent. Each song highlighted a different aspect of their artistry, proving that IVE is much more than just a typical K-pop group."[12]
