Displaysolutions from Wuppertal specialises with its LED products in solutions for big sports venues. The new digital solution of the LED sponsors wall immediately enables Bayer 04 to play dynamic and updatable graphic image content and live images as well as pre-produced videos. With an aspect ratio of 4 to 1 it is also possible to show two videos next to each other at any time. As usual, the sponsors can be allocated as required across the whole width. The wall has an overall width of 6 metres with a height of 1.5 metres. That provides a state-of-the-art background.
Markus Breglec, Chief Marketing and Innovation Officer: "With the acquisition of the digital press wall here at Bayer 04 we are taking another important and essential step in the area of future development and digitalisation of our BayArena together with our partners Innlights. The new LED wall makes it possible to play both partner as well as club content with the maximum flexibility and sustainability. We are proud of this transformation and we look forward to optimum use in our future press conferences and other media events."

The sustainable use of the BayArena seats removed as part of the current stadium upgrade has taken on a new dimension: Following on from numerous Bayer 04 fans receiving their ‘Undefeated Champions seats’ and various clubs and community organisations from Leverkusen and the wider region having collected the dismantled seats, Blau-Gelbe Kreuz e.V. also made their way to the BayArena recently.
