BROOKINGS, S.D. – Apr. 16, 2015 – Daktronics (NASDAQ-DAKT) of Brookings, South Dakota, has been selected by StubHub Center and the LA Galaxy to install the largest LED video display for professional soccer specific venues in Carson, California. It features a unique convex curvature, the only of its kind in soccer.
“We are very excited to work with Daktronics to provide the best in-stadium video display at StubHub Center,” said LA Galaxy President Chris Klein. “Our video board is the largest in Major League Soccer. We are pleased to work collectively with Daktronics to help improve the fan experience at LA Galaxy matches and events at StubHub Center. We look forward to our partnership going forward.”
The new display measures approximately 36.5 feet high by 129 feet wide to entertain fans and patrons at professional soccer matches and other special events within StubHub Center. Featuring a 13HD pixel layout, the premier technology for outdoor LED video displays, this display provides clear, crisp imagery with wide angle visibility to ensure every seat in the house has a great view of the action.
