Bankwest Stadium, Sydney, Australia

Bankwest Stadium is the first sporting arena of its type in Australia to be under full KNX control.

It is a 30,000-seat, multi-purpose rectangular arena located in Sydney, Australia. Its unique seating design brings fans closer to the action than ever before.

Fully integrated DMX LED sports lights are controlled via the KNX system to call up static lighting modes utilised for match lighting, training, or simply cleaning of the venue after all the fans have departed, as well as full theatrical production lighting shows synchronised to music and other visual effects. This has revolutionised the spectator experience and set new benchmarks for their future expectations.

The government-funded facility was built at a cost of AU$360 million and took approximately 2 years to complete.

By utilisation of the KNX platform, Bankwest Stadium is delivering word class experiences today, and is ready to evolve with the ever-changing demands of tomorrow confidently.
