MMArena, located in Le Mans, is a modern multi-purpose stadium constructed at a cost of €102 million and officially opened on 29 January 2011. It serves as the home ground of Le Mans FC and is designed to accommodate a variety of sporting and entertainment events. The stadium is also occasionally used for concerts and rugby union matches, providing flexibility for regional and international events.
MMArena has hosted:
• Ligue 2 and professional football matches for Le Mans FC, including promotion and cup fixtures.
• Domestic cup competitions and regional tournaments.
• Rugby union matches and friendly fixtures, leveraging the stadium’s adaptable layout.
• Concerts and large-scale entertainment events, taking advantage of modern facilities and spectator amenities.
• Community sports programs, youth tournaments, and local football development events.
Despite being a recently constructed stadium, MMArena has undergone ongoing enhancements to maintain modern standards:
• Seating and spectator facilities： Comfortable seating, VIP areas, and hospitality zones optimized for visibility, safety, and fan experience.
• Pitch improvements： Reinforced natural turf with advanced drainage and irrigation to maintain consistent playing conditions for both football and rugby.
• Technical and athlete facilities： Modern locker rooms, warm-up zones, medical areas, and preparation facilities.
• Media and broadcast infrastructure： Press boxes, commentary booths, and digital scoreboards supporting high-definition broadcast requirements.
• Lighting and visibility improvements： High-performance floodlighting for night matches, broadcast quality, and multi-event flexibility.
MMArena is a key sports and events hub in Le Mans, supporting professional football, rugby, concerts, and community programs. Its modern infrastructure is ideal for next-generation lighting upgrades. MECREE high-uniformity LED sports lighting systems could enhance pitch illumination, broadcast quality, and energy efficiency while complying with league and federation standards.
The stadium remains a central venue for Le Mans FC and an adaptable space for both national and international sporting and entertainment events.

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.
Through lighting simulation calculations and programming of light show designs, solutions oriented towards either visual effects or cost-effectiveness are provided.
