Warrington Wolves’ stadium has undergone a complete lighting transformation, combining high-performance sports illumination with dynamic, programmable control to elevate the match day experience.
The project brings together LEDTURE’s broadcast-grade lighting system with Protopixel’s creative control platform, enabling the stadium to move beyond traditional lighting into a fully immersive visual environment.
A Platform for Performance and Creativity
The installation features a full LEDTURE stadium lighting upgrade, replacing legacy metal halide systems with a modern, high-output LED solution.
At its core are 48 Model A 2400W floodlights, delivering over 1300 lux average across the pitch with excellent uniformity and flicker-free performance, meeting the demands of professional sport and broadcast. Alongside this, 34 RGBW luminaires have been integrated to introduce colour and flexibility across the stadium environment.
This combination creates a powerful foundation, not just for visibility, but for creative expression.
Bringing Lighting to Life with Protopixel
Delivering this level of control within a large-scale sports venue requires more than just software.
The underlying stadium lighting system has been engineered to support:
- DMX control
- Reliable communication
- Precise dimming
- Consistent lighting performance
This integration allows Protopixel to operate seamlessly across the entire system, enabling creative teams to design and execute lighting experiences with confidence.
Seamless Integration at Stadium Scale
Delivering this level of control within a large-scale sports venue requires more than just software.
The underlying stadium lighting system has been engineered to support DMX control natively, ensuring reliable communication, precise dimming, and consistent lighting performance across all luminaires. This integration allows Protopixel to operate seamlessly across the entire system, enabling creative teams to design and execute lighting experiences with confidence.
Enhancing the Fan Experience
The result is a transformed stadium environment where lighting plays a central role in the overall atmosphere. Dynamic lighting sequences enhance key moments, build anticipation, and create a stronger emotional connection with fans. The stadium becomes not just a venue for sport, but a stage for live entertainment and an immersive match day experience.
A New Standard for Sports Lighting
This project demonstrates how advanced lighting control can redefine the role of stadium lighting. By combining high-performance illumination with Protopixel’s creative platform, Warrington Wolves now have a system that delivers both world-class visibility and a fully programmable experience.
What the club says:
“It’s been an incredible addition to the match day experience. It’s far exceeded what I imagined, it’s added to the atmosphere and ultimately the show was absolutely incredible. LEDTURE have been incredible to work with, going above and beyond and working through all hours to make sure everything was installed in time for the first game.”
