Calwell Playing Fields
In a groundbreaking development for Canberra’s sports community, Calwell Playing Fields have become the first public ACT sports ground to be fitted with an advanced LED lighting system. Four new 22-metre light towers now illuminate the fields, setting a benchmark for high-quality lighting in public sports facilities across the region.
This transformative upgrade was spearheaded as part of the ACT Government’s commitment to enhancing local sporting infrastructure. ACT Minister for Sport, Yvette Berry, highlighted the project’s significance, stating, “This upgrade provides match-play lighting for a range of competitions. Whether at an elite or social level, the high-quality lighting will provide better visibility to both the players and the fans that watch from the sidelines.”
The addition of AAA-LUX’s LED technology aligns seamlessly with the Government’s vision to support the region’s thriving sports culture. Ms. Berry emphasized the impact of this upgrade on community engagement: “Sports in Canberra always draw large participation numbers and crowds, and the provision of state-of-the-art lighting at this location helps to meet this demand.”
AAA-LUX’s LED lighting system offers unparalleled advantages for sports grounds like Calwell. Beyond ensuring exceptional visibility for players and spectators, the system is energy-efficient, environmentally friendly, and designed to reduce operational costs. These benefits make it the ideal choice for modern sports facilities striving to balance performance with sustainability.
The Impact
Since its installation, the new lighting has transformed Calwell Playing Fields into a venue capable of hosting competitions at any time of day, enhancing the overall sporting experience. From elite tournaments to social matches, players and fans alike benefit from superior illumination that ensures safety, performance, and enjoyment.
