Daktronics Transforms MLB Stadiums for 2026 Season

Audiovisual systems manufacturer Daktronics has supplied several Major League Baseball (MLB) teams with enhanced LED displays ahead of the new season’s Opening Day. The upgrades focus on increasing digital canvas size, improving resolution, and integrating advanced display technology across some of the league’s most iconic ballparks.

In a major partnership with the Arizona Diamondbacks, Daktronics designed and installed the largest LED video display in Arizona at Chase Field. Located in center field, the new display spans nearly 9,600 square feet—a 52% increase over the previous system. This installation places Chase Field among the top 10 largest displays in the Major Leagues, featuring 16.9 million pixels and 10-millimeter pixel spacing.

The Seattle Mariners also collaborated with Daktronics to upgrade the digital experience at T-Mobile Park. The new outfield video display, now branded as “Mariners Fire TV,” totals more than 11,300 square feet. It remains one of the largest in MLB, measuring approximately 56.5 feet high by 201 feet wide.

At Wrigley Field, home of the Chicago Cubs, eight new LED displays totaling over 8,300 square feet have been installed. While the physical dimensions of the screens remain the same to preserve the park’s historic aesthetic, the resolution has been significantly upgraded from a 13HD layout to 10-millimeter pixel spacing. This technical shift triples the number of pixels per square meter, providing much sharper viewing angles for fans.

Furthermore, the San Diego Padres continue to expand their LED inventory at Petco Park. Two new tower displays, each measuring 25 feet high by 22.5 feet wide, were added along the baselines during the offseason, along with a new video wall in the Lexus Club.

In European news, Madrid’s Movistar Arena has entered into a partnership with the transportation company Cabify. As the official mobility partner, Cabify will integrate technological solutions within the venue’s ecosystem to optimize fan movement and flow before and after events.
