If you want to be more exact, it’s “Are lights being set up by them outside the stadium?”. But the original is a better sentence; the passive is rather clunky here.

If you want to be more exact, it’s “Are lights being set up by them outside the stadium?”. But the original is a better sentence; the passive is rather clunky here.
