Opened: 10 June 1951
Main use: Football
Tenants: Ferroviária (football)
Estádio Dr. Adhemar de Barros, widely known as Estádio Fonte Luminosa, is one of the most traditional football venues in the city of Araraquara, São Paulo, Brazil. With a capacity of 25,000, the stadium has served as the long-standing home of Ferroviária, becoming an iconic landmark in regional and national football culture since its opening on 10 June 1951.
The stadium was inaugurated with a highly anticipated match between Ferroviária and CR Vasco da Gama, attracting a large crowd and establishing Fonte Luminosa as a key football venue in the state of São Paulo from the very beginning.
Throughout its history, the stadium has welcomed numerous matches involving Brazil’s most prominent football clubs, including:
CR Vasco da Gama
SC Corinthians Paulista
São Paulo FC
Santos FC
These fixtures contributed to the stadium’s strong football identity and its recognition as an important venue for both regional and national competitions.
While the stadium did not host matches of the inaugural FIFA Club World Cup in 2000, it maintains historical ties through its encounters with participating clubs—especially CR Vasco da Gama, which faced Ferroviária in various friendly and regional fixtures around that era. The 2000 tournament ultimately crowned SC Corinthians Paulista, further linking the venue to the early history of a globally significant competition.
Over several decades, Estádio Fonte Luminosa has undergone multiple upgrades to meet modern football standards and improve the spectator experience.
A comprehensive redevelopment project significantly modernized the stadium, including:
Construction of a new main stand and VIP areas
Installation of new seating and structural reinforcement of the stands
Upgraded stadium lighting system for night matches and TV broadcasts
Enhanced safety infrastructure and emergency evacuation routes
Renovated locker rooms, athlete facilities, and media workspaces
This renovation marked a new era for Fonte Luminosa, bringing it closer to the standards required by national football competitions.
Given the region’s climate, the stadium has received repeated turf resurfacing and drainage enhancements to ensure high-quality pitch performance even under heavy rainfall conditions.
To support professional football and live broadcasting standards, the stadium has carried out multiple lighting upgrades over the years.

With the craze of sport games in the night, and more professional events are played at night, people desire for lighting to play at the very beginning so now people more concern about the quality of lighting, we believe that the glare produced by ordinary lamps can no longer meet the athletes’ pursuit of sensory experience. But now, thanks to developments in MECREE’s sports lighting technology, our precise control and anti-glare lighting makes it possible for sports men and women to perform at their best and enjoy the best sports experience.
There is increasing concern for the problems created by unwanted light at night,such as light pollution and light trespass, result in various types of complaints. Particularly with increasing awareness of environmental problems of all types, it is important that lighting designers recognize the need to control problems related to the general subjects of “Light Pollution” and “Light Trespass.” So we have tried every effort to develope a newest optical technology to solve the problem.
Currently common traditional stadium lights model for some international stadiums as below:
MVF406/1800W, HNF003, MVF401, MVF403, MVF024, EF-2000, YOA56305, YOAX56400, 2kW: HQI-TS 2000WDS, 2kW: HQI-TS 1000WDS, MHN-SA 2KW 400V/956, MHN-SB/HO 2KW 400V/956, LPW2000M/D, LPW1000MB/L, LPP2000MHN-SA, LPP2000MHN-SB.
There is big problem that traditional lamps can not cannot meet the needs of 4K and 8K high-definition broadcast and huge energy consumption.
With the strengthening of environmental lighting awareness and the pursuit of high-quality lighting, there is a trend to replace traditional lamps by high quality of LED Stadium Lights.
MECREE has launched the following series of LED Sport Stadium Lighting:
MECREE’s specially engineered precision lighting control is designed to meet the needs of such users. The polarized light range of 65-73° is defined as the P73-L and A65 series products, which deliver an unparalleled visual experience while offering access to thousands of IES profiles.
Our precisely engineered optics of polarized light aim light directly onto the field of play, to shine uniformly and to minimize glare. Outdoor venues benefit from spill light control, no more skyglow and no more complaints from the neighbors.
1. Such light shield is useless,just misleading customers.
2. As tested it will cause 30% reduction of light output
3. While 70% still have high overflow
4. Unbearable strong glare
5. Waste energy,outdated reflective technology
The power supply and lamp body can be mounted separately, reducing the withstand weight of the lamp pole and facilitating maintenance.
Customized crossarms are available to meet all your existing old poles without replacing the main rod, crossarms bolt directly to light pole, easy and accurate installation saves time, ensures performance, safety and reliability,also lower the budget.
In current sports lighting projects, high-altitude light calibration is recognized as a major efficiency bottleneck. The process carries high safety risks, is prone to aiming deviations, and involves cumbersome installation and removal procedures, making it difficult to achieve the required uniformity.
MECREE’s innovative laser aiming mount was designed precisely to address these issues. It revolutionizes the workflow through three key advantages:
Easy Installation: With a simple design, it allows rapid mounting and dismounting, significantly lowering the operational threshold.
Precise Aiming: Ensures accurate laser alignment, fundamentally guaranteeing uniform illumination and compliance with lighting standards.
Efficient Operation: Reduces labor and time costs by up to 80%. Calibrating 200 fixtures at height previously took 20 days; now the same workload can be completed in just 4 days.
Choosing MECREE means choosing a safer, more precise, and highly efficient sports lighting solution.
