Daktronics Enhances Sun Bowl Stadium Visuals Daktronics and the University of Texas, El Paso (UTEP) announced on August 7, 2026 , the completion of a substantial upgrade to the video display and control system at UTEP's iconic Sun Bowl Stadium. This project significantly boosts the visual fidelity of the stadium's primary display, marking a notable improvement in fan engagement technology. Resolution Leap for Fan Experience The core of this upgrade lies in the dramatic increase in display resolution, now 4.5 times sharper than the previous system. This enhancement is designed to provide fans with clearer, more detailed imagery during games and events. The upgrade utilized Daktronics' Renew product line , a testament to the company's commitment to modernizing existing installations. While the resolution has seen a significant uplift, the physical dimensions of the main video board, measuring 33.5 feet high , remain unchanged. Aligning with UTEP's Strategic Vision This technological advancement is particularly timely as UTEP enters a new conference era. The improved visual experience is expected to contribute to UTEP's broader initiatives aimed at enhancing overall fan engagement and stadium atmosphere. A more immersive and visually engaging environment is crucial for maintaining and growing fan loyalty and attendance in a competitive collegiate athletics landscape. Technical Details of the Refresh The upgrade focused on the video display itself and the integrated control system. By implementing the latest Daktronics technology through the Renew program, UTEP benefits from a display that offers superior clarity and brightness. This ensures that replays, statistics, and in-game entertainment are presented with a new level of detail, making the game-day experience more dynamic for every spectator in attendance. The physical footprint of the display remains consistent, allowing for a seamless integration into the existing stadium structure.
