Elevating Game Day: Sapphire's LED Scoreboard for West Kelowna’s Royal Lepage Arena



The City of West Kelowna sought a cutting-edge solution for their Royal Lepage Arena, home to the BCHL West Kelowna Warriors and a beloved community rink. The challenge was clear: they needed a brand new LED center clock that would enhance the game day experience for players, fans, and the community alike. To achieve this, they turned to Sapphire, a trusted name in audiovisual innovation.


The Royal Lepage Arena needed a modern LED center clock that would deliver a high-end game day experience. This clock had to be versatile, visually striking, and capable of engaging the local fanbase. As a community hub and home to the West Kelowna Warriors, the arena required a solution that would elevate the excitement and engagement of hockey games and community events.


Sapphire responded with a design-build approach, leveraging their expertise to create a custom solution. Sapphire's innovative design met all the specifications required by the City of West Kelowna, demonstrating their ability to craft bespoke audiovisual systems tailored to unique client needs.


Sapphire's solution featured the installation of Absen NX 3.7 panels, forming four 16x9 LED walls and corner LED modules. This configuration created a four-sided video wall with 45-degree video panels, ensuring visibility from every angle in the arena. To enhance the broadcast capabilities, the system was integrated with a Tricaster broadcast system and a 3Play replay system, providing high-quality video playback and instant replays that add to the excitement of the games.


The result is a state-of-the-art LED video system that transforms the Royal Lepage Arena into a high-tech venue, delivering an exceptional game day experience for the West Kelowna Warriors and their fans. The new LED center clock is not just a functional timekeeping device; it's a dynamic visual centerpiece that enhances the atmosphere of the arena and provides stunning video playback. This upgrade has brought a professional-grade audiovisual experience to the local team and the community, making every game more thrilling and engaging.
