ETC knocks out the competitionThe Mayweather vs McGregor fight on 26 August was the latest spectacle at Las Vegas’ T-Mobile Arena. Dubbed “The Money Fight,” it featured UFC star Conor McGregor making his pro boxing debut against undefeated boxing legend Floyd Mayweather. But while the packed house was focused on the fight in the arena, ETC was focused on the lights in the arena. ETC’s line of architectural products – Unison Paradigm, Echo and Mosaic – covers every inch of the T-Mobile Arena, everywhere from the luxury suites to the back of house hallways, from the Hyde Lounge nightclub to the concession stands, and even the external lighting is showing the arena off to the world.

With electrical design provided by ME Engineers and system integration by 4Wall Las Vegas, the capabilities of ETC’s architectural line are on display throughout the T- Mobile. VIPs have full control of lights in their suites via Touchscreen interfaces, while integration into the arena-wide Paradigm system means they automatically dim when a show starts. Echo infrastructure made it easy to light the back of house spaces and help the building achieve Platinum LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) status. ETC’s rigging is also represented at the T-Mobile arena, with Vortek by ETC supplying the custom hoists that raise and lower the scoreboard. And ETC’s Mosaic system controls all the external lights, ensuring that all the fans approaching the venue – and all the millions of viewers watching coverage of the fight on a multitude of networks covering the event – saw the arena in the best possible light.

“The T-Mobile Arena is a world-class venue, and we’re proud to be a part of it,” says Karl Haas, ETC’s architectural national sales manager. “And despite the slogan, what happens in Vegas doesn’t stay in Vegas. ETC is a partner at a multitude of highly visible, highly trafficked sports venues and arenas across the country.”
