Visual Experience at ONE Spokane Stadium Features Top-Notch Technology from Daktronics

Soccer fans to experience wow factor at matches

BROOKINGS, S.D. – Feb. 29, 2024 – When soccer fans head to USL Spokane matches at ONE Spokane Stadium in Washington this spring, they will be greeted by LED video displays from Daktronics (NASDAQ-DAKT) of Brookings, South Dakota. The installation of a main video display and pitch-level displays is currently underway and will be ready to inform and entertain Spokane Zephyr FC and Spokane Velocity fans at every match.

The field-level LED is a particularly exciting addition to ONE Spokane Stadium, said Mac Graff, USL Spokane’s manager of partnership fulfillment. 

“It stretches across 80 percent of the east sideline,” Graff said. “USL Spokane will be one of few with this quality of field-level LED at their home pitch. Add that to the top-notch Daktronics video board that sits atop the stadium and we’re going to be able to do so much with fan engagement and experience, game-day displays, and local partner development. It’s going to be great!”

LED Display Details

The video display will measure 20.5 feet high by 36 feet wide and will feature 10-millimeter pixel spacing to deliver high-quality images, videos, statistics, graphics and sponsor messaging to fans throughout ONE Spokane Stadium. 

The pitch-perimeter display will measure approximately 2.5 feet high by 246 feet long and feature 10-millimeter pixel spacing. This will allow for supplemental information to the main display while also allowing the opportunity to highlight sponsors throughout events with their branding directly next to the live action.

“This project helps highlight Daktronics' ability to bring a stadium to life with LED technology while also ensuring ONE Spokane Stadium is a complete entertainment destination for their tenants and fans,” said Daktronics Regional Manager Brady Jacobsen. “We’re thrilled to be a part of this project and look forward to this stadium bringing joy and entertainment to soccer fans in the Northwest for years to come.”

Daktronics has grown with the sports industry from the company’s beginnings in 1968. Today, the company has integrated LED super systems in more than 50% of all professional sports facilities in the United States and Canada.
