INFiLED enhances matchday experience with new LED displays at Stade Michel d’Ornano

French National league football club Stade Malherbe Caen recently upgraded its home venue, Stade Michel d’Ornano, with a cutting-edge LED display solution from INFiLED, working in close collaboration with AV integration specialist AUVISYS. The upgrade marks a new chapter for the 20,000-capacity stadium, with vibrant digital signage replacing outdated static boards and transforming the experience for fans, sponsors and stadium operators alike.

After more than 15 years of service, the stadium’s previous LED screens had reached the end of their lifespan. Rather than simply replacing like for like, the club’s management team used the opportunity to rethink their approach to digital signage. Their goals were clear: to provide an engaging visual platform for sponsors, enrich the fan experience with vivid, high-impact content, ensure long-term reliability in all weather conditions and simplify day-to-day technical operations.

To achieve this, they turned to AUVISYS, a well-established French AV integrator known for its expertise in delivering large-scale, technically sound installations. Together with INFiLED, AUVISYS designed and delivered a new solution built around INFiLED’s robust MV Series, and specifically the ORMV P7.8 Max; an LED panel engineered for demanding outdoor environments.

A total of 72 square metres of LED was installed, with two large-format screens each measuring 8 by 4.5 metres. Offering a resolution of 1024 × 576 pixels and a brightness level of 8,000 nits, the new displays ensure excellent visibility even in full daylight, delivering rich colours and sharp visuals from every seat in the house. The system’s modular design allowed for seamless integration into the stadium’s existing architecture, with bespoke mounting systems developed to secure the displays at optimal viewing heights.

Reliability was a core requirement for the project, and the ORMV P7.8 Max delivered on all fronts. The IP65-rated enclosures offer protection against rain, dust and humidity – ensuring consistent performance in all weather – while front and rear access, along with redundant power and signal inputs, enable fast maintenance and minimise downtime during busy match schedules.

Installation was completed smoothly and on schedule, despite tight timelines. INFiLED’s French team remained closely involved throughout the process, supporting AUVISYS from initial site assessment through to colour and brightness calibration, and final handover.

The 2026 SVB LIVE Conference & Exhibition – with its focus on elevating the live experience – is being hosted at Everton’s spectacular new Hill Dickinson Stadium on October 1st and 2nd, and will include a behind-the-scenes VIP Host Venue Tour, in addition to tours of two other Liverpool landmark venues.

AUVISYS describes their decision to work with INFiLED as being based on three factors: product quality, cost-effectiveness and outstanding local support. The company notes that the choice wasn’t based solely on initial cost but also on the long-term value of the solution – including reliability, energy efficiency and revenue potential from new advertising opportunities. AUVISYS also highlights the “human support” provided by INFiLED’s local team as a key ingredient in the project’s success, praising their accessibility, responsiveness and collaborative spirit.

Since going live, the new displays have had a visible impact on the atmosphere inside the stadium. Fans have responded positively to the improved visual quality, and the upgraded platform has created new possibilities for partner engagement and content delivery.

By combining advanced LED display technology with expert local integration and support, INFiLED has helped Stade Malherbe Caen take a significant step forward in its digital transformation.

The Stade Michel d’Ornano project is the latest in a series of successful outdoor and sports venue installations for INFiLED, reinforcing the company’s position as a trusted partner for high-performance display solutions across Europe.
