The Los Angeles Dodgers on Thursday announced new additions to Dodger Stadium, including a transition to all LED lighting, that will debut next week during Opening Day. 

According to a release from the team, the 2023 season will feature a number of new additions to the stadium, most notably the addition of new state-of-the-art lights. 

This offseason, the Dodgers replaced all field lights with LED Lights. Not only are the LED lights more energy efficient, but they also have color-changing abilities, enhancing the fan experience by utilizing the lights more creatively.

The system’s 600 fixtures are part of a complete system design, which delivers a number of benefits, including better visibility for fans and players, improved energy efficiency, minimized glare and spill light, and improved broadcast quality.

The new lighting was installed over the course of two months, with the previous HID fixtures — which were installed in 2008 — removed and parts recycled. Dodger Stadium now joins more than a dozen MLB stadiums that feature customized LED technology, including other similarly iconic venues such as Wrigley Field and Fenway Park.
