Challenge

The stadium, hosting 80,000 spectators for national football matches and international events, needed to replace its aging scoreboard and add modern perimeter advertising displays. The existing system suffered from poor visibility in daylight, frequent pixel failures, and lacked the high refresh rate needed for broadcast television coverage. Additionally, sponsor revenue was limited by static perimeter boards that could only display a single brand at a time.

Solution

ReissDisplay installed a dual-sided center-hung LED scoreboard (P6, 200 m²) with integrated scoring and timing systems, plus 600 linear meters of P10 perimeter LED displays around the pitch. The main display featured 8,000 nits brightness for daylight visibility and 3,840 Hz refresh rate for broadcast cameras. The perimeter system was configured with automated sponsor rotation — displaying 12 sponsors per match segment instead of the previous single sponsor — managed through a centralized control system.

Results

The upgraded display infrastructure transformed both fan experience and stadium economics. Sponsor advertising revenue increased by 85% due to the ability to rotate multiple brands per match. Broadcast partners reported zero flicker or moiré issues during live coverage. Fan satisfaction surveys showed a 40-point increase in display-related satisfaction scores. The system has operated flawlessly through two full seasons in tropical outdoor conditions.
