ADELAIDE ENTERTAINMENT CENTRE β ARENA SPORTS LIGHTING UPGRADE!
Another fantastic project completed by the team at BCE & CJ Electrical, delivering a major Arena Broadcast Sports Lighting upgrade at the iconic Adelaide Entertainment Centre!
Working alongside Lightlogix, our team carried out the removal of the existing arena lighting and installation of new Thorn Altis Gen 5 Arena Broadcast LED Sports Lighting, mounted high above the arena on the existing catwalk infrastructure.
The new lighting system incorporates DMX lighting control and has been designed to deliver an impressive 2,000 lux average illumination, meeting the demanding broadcast lighting requirements for national basketball and netball matches, while also providing greater flexibility for the many other events held at the venue.
β‘ One of the biggest challenges was delivering the project within strict timeframes, working closely with the Adelaide Entertainment Centre team to coordinate our works around scheduled events, venue setups and pack-downs, all while ensuring minimal disruption to operations.
A great team effort and an outstanding result that will enhance the experience for players, spectators and television audiences, supporting major sporting and entertainment events here in South Australia!
