Sakarya Atatürk Stadium is a state-of-the-art football arena located in Adapazarı, the central district of Sakarya province in northwestern Turkey. The stadium was inaugurated on October 8, 2017, replacing the old, eponymous stadium that stood on the same site since 1973. Designed as a modern, all-seater, UEFA-category stadium, it serves as the proud and passionate home of Sakaryaspor.
The opening ceremony symbolized a new era for football in the region, providing the historic club with facilities worthy of its legacy and ambitions.
The stadium’s sole and iconic tenant is Sakaryaspor, a club with a deep-rooted identity in the industrial and agricultural heartland of Sakarya.
Founded: 1965
Nickname: “Tatangalar” (The Bulls), reflecting the strength, resilience, and fighting spirit of both the team and its community.
Historic Achievement: The club’s golden moment came in 1988, when they won the Turkish Cup. This triumph remains the pinnacle of the club’s history, etching their name among Turkey’s football champions and earning them a place in European competition (the UEFA Cup Winners’ Cup).
Identity: Sakaryaspor is known for its intensely loyal and vocal fanbase. The new stadium has become a formidable fortress, where the support of the “Tatangalar” creates one of the most intimidating atmospheres in Turkish football, particularly in the TFF First League.
Built to meet contemporary standards, the stadium is a compact, single-tier bowl designed to maximize crowd atmosphere and proximity to the pitch.
UEFA Category 3: Certified to host UEFA competition matches.
All-Seater Design: 28,113 dark blue and claret seats (the club’s colors) arranged in a continuous ring around the pitch.
Full Roof Coverage: A modern, cantilevered roof covers all spectators, enhancing acoustics and providing shelter.
Modern Amenities: Includes VIP suites, a modern press tribune, dedicated facilities for home and away teams, and extensive concessions.
Atmosphere: The design is specifically geared towards generating a loud, unified, and intimidating home advantage, with steep stands bringing fans close to the action.
The new stadium’s construction on the site of the old Sakarya Atatürk Stadium creates a direct link between the club’s past and future. The old ground witnessed the club’s historic 1988 Turkish Cup victory and its periods in the Süper Lig.
The opening of the new 28,000-capacity arena in 2017 was a statement of intent and a source of immense local pride. It provided a crucial infrastructure boost for the club’s push to return to the top flight and solidified Adapazarı’s status as a major football city in Turkey.
Promotion Pursuits: The stadium is the central battleground in Sakaryaspor’s ongoing quest to return to the Süper Lig.
Turkish Cup Nights: Evokes memories of the club’s 1988 glory, with every cup match carrying the hope of a new historic run.
Local Derbies: Matches against regional rivals generate particularly fierce atmospheres.
The matchday experience is defined by the relentless energy of the “Tatangalar.” The stadium’s architecture amplifies the chants and drums, creating a wall of sound that fully embodies the “Bulls” nickname. It is widely regarded as one of the most challenging away venues in the TFF First League due to this passionate support.
Situated in the Yenişehir neighborhood, the stadium is a focal point for the community and easily accessible. It stands not just as a sports facility, but as a modern monument to Sakaryaspor’s history—honoring the Turkish Cup triumph of 1988 while providing a 21st-century platform for the club’s future. The Sakarya Atatürk Stadium is the beating heart of a one-club city, where the hopes of an entire province are carried every matchday by their beloved “Bulls.”

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. Design of Lighthouse, parameters required for building foundation, (axial force, shear force, bending force). High power generator set supporting,circuit design service,cable supply. We are your best supply chain manager! We are committed to providing you with a one-stop solution. We focus on the research, design, and manufacturing of our products, delivering customized and energy-efficient lighting system solutions for all types of sports venues and multifunctional facilities.The details are as follows:high-power sports lighting、arena night lighting retrofit、smart stadium lighting control、energy-efficient LED stadium lights、stadium lighting power supply optimization、broadcast-quality sports lighting、large venue lighting retrofit、adjustable brightness and color temperature lighting、LED floodlight installation and upgrade、stadium lighting maintenance and management、energy-saving lighting solutions for stadiums、multi-purpose venue lighting design、night game lighting optimization.
