When it comes to outdoor screens there are two options you are faced with: LED and projection. LED screens are the right option for most commercial outdoor events. It comes down to a few factors:

With an LED screen:

• The picture is more vivid
• They are more versatile
• They work in daylight / varying light conditions

With projection:

• only suitable for events held at night, in the dark
• often a much more cost-efficient solution

So, what events are LED outdoor screens used for?  

• Concerts & Festivals – to show what’s going on on-stage to larger audiences
• Outdoor cinemas – especially if they show during daylight hours where projection wouldn’t work
• Fundraisers – outdoor screens can be used in a variety of ways at fundraisers, for example, advertising how to donate
• Activism– outdoor screens offer a way to get a message out to a large number of people at once
• Drive in conferences – these popped up overnight during covid but have been a positive ongoing benefit for many
• Digital signage & advertising – often used at the same time, you can welcome and direct your customers whilst selling space to advertisers
• Outdoor exhibitions  – stand out from the crowd and make your presence known with a vibrant display by your stand
