FC Cincinnati

The exquisite exterior of the newly opened TQL Stadium— home of the FC Cincinnati Soccer Club—was engineered, fabricated and installed by Jones Architectural Creations and Jones Sports. The stadium cladding is a series of specially shaped aluminum fins, which create a geometric shape connecting the roof to the side concourse enclosure around the stadium’s perimeter.

Each of the 385 fins is fitted with programmable LED lighting that is controlled with a graphic operating system. When lit and operating, the stadium’s exterior lighting produces nearly infinite hues, graphics, and messages and creates a stunning visual experience. There are 14,370 linear feet of pixel and about 840,000 LEDs. The structure is supported by 46 custom steel trusses, which range from 50-to-80 feet tall.
