The latest in a series of upgrades to facilities on Filbert Way in recent years, the new system will put King Power Stadium’s pitch lighting on par with the world’s elite sporting venues – enhancing the matchday experience for supporters in attendance and providing brilliant broadcast quality for the Premier League’s audience of billions around the world.

Final calibration and testing of the new system will take place in the week building up to the season curtain-raiser against Wolverhampton Wanderers on Sunday 11 August. While installation of the permanent system is completed during the coming days, temporary floodlights will be in operation for Friday’s pre-season friendly against Atalanta.

Investment in top-of-the-range pitch lighting for 2019/20 follows the installation of two giant LED screens in the King Power Stadium bowl less than a year ago, shortly after a major renovation of the Foxes Fanstore in the summer of 2018.

As has been the case with the new screens, among the largest and most immersive in the Premier League, the new LED pitch lighting will add a new dimension to matchday entertainment, with instant illumination creating the opportunity for lighting special effects ahead of matches after dark.

Leicester City’s Premier League season opener against Wolves has now sold out, but Foxes fans can see the team’s final preparations for the campaign on Friday night, with tickets for the friendly against Atalanta at King Power Stadium still on sale.
