Estadio José María Morelos y Pavón, widely known by its nickname “El Coloso del Quinceo”, is a football fortress located in Morelia, Michoacán, Mexico. Since its inauguration on April 9, 1989, it served for decades as the iconic and beloved home of Club Atlético Morelia.
Full Address: Calle Libramiento Norte, Morelia, Michoacán, Mexico.
Country: United Mexican States (Mexico).
Opened: April 9, 1989.
Seating Capacity: Approximately 35,000.
Primary Use: Football (Soccer).
Historic Main Tenant: Club Atlético Morelia (1989-2020).
Nickname: El Coloso del Quinceo (The Colossus of Quinceo), named after the surrounding neighborhood.
For over 30 years, the identity of this stadium was inseparable from Atlético Morelia (nicknamed Los Canarios, The Canaries).
An Era of Success and Passion: The stadium witnessed the club’s golden era, including its historic and only Liga MX championship win in the Invierno 2000 season. It was also the stage for deep runs in domestic cups and international tournaments like the Copa Libertadores.
A Fortress of Atmosphere: Renowned for its loud, passionate, and knowledgeable fans, El Coloso was one of the most intimidating away venues in Mexico. The steep stands close to the pitch created an electrifying and intimate atmosphere.
A Sudden End to an Era: In a dramatic and painful turn for local fans, the club’s ownership relocated the franchise to Mazatlán in 2020, rebranding it as Mazatlán FC. This left the Estadio Morelos without its historic soulmate and primary tenant, a situation that continues to define its current chapter.
The stadium’s story is now one of legacy and transition.
Architectural Nickname: True to its nickname, the stadium’s large, horseshoe-shaped concrete structure indeed has a “colossal” presence in the city’s landscape.
A Stadium in Waiting: Following Morelia’s departure, the stadium has been used sporadically. It has hosted occasional matches for temporary teams (like Mineros de Zacatecas during a brief relocation) and other events, but it awaits a new permanent football tenant to revive its roar.
Cultural Monument: Regardless of its current use, the stadium remains a powerful symbol of Morelia’s sporting identity and a monument to the memories of an entire community, standing as a testament to the city’s rich football history.

With the growing popularity of nighttime sports events, professional competitions demand higher lighting quality. The glare from traditional fixtures can no longer meet athletes’ expectations for sensory experience. Leveraging breakthroughs in MECREE’s sports lighting technology, our precise light control and anti-glare designs enable athletes to perform at their peak and enjoy an exceptional sports experience.
Issues caused by unnecessary nighttime lighting, such as light pollution and light trespass, are increasingly concerning and have led to rising public complaints. Amid growing environmental awareness, lighting designers must prioritize controlling “Light Pollution” and “Light Trespass.” We are committed to addressing this challenge through innovative optical technologies.
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.
