Stadio Alberto Picco was inaugurated shortly after World War I and gradually expanded to accommodate the growing popularity of football in Liguria. Throughout its early decades, it hosted regional competitions, local derbies, and became a focal point of the city’s sporting culture.
The stadium is named after Alberto Picco, a young Italian soldier and footballer from La Spezia who died in the First World War. The dedication reflects the city’s historical memory and the club’s civic identity.
Over the years, Stadio Alberto Picco has undergone multiple phases of redevelopment to meet Italian football federation and Serie A/Serie B regulations, including:
Stand reinforcement and seating upgrades
Improved access routes and safety compliance
Lighting system improvements for night matches
Media and VAR infrastructure updates
Further phases of modernization have been planned to support Spezia Calcio’s long-term ambitions in Italian professional football.
Spezia Calcio—commonly known as Aquilotti (Eaglets)—was founded in 1906 and is one of the oldest football clubs in northern Italy. Historically competing in the lower divisions, the club built a reputation for passionate supporters and strong performances in regional competitions.
In 2020, Spezia Calcio achieved the most significant milestone in its history by earning promotion to Serie A, the top flight of Italian football, for the first time. This historic achievement elevated the profile of both the club and Stadio Alberto Picco, necessitating further infrastructural improvements to comply with top-tier stadium standards.
During the Serie A era, the stadium became widely recognized in Italian football media for its unique setting within the hills of La Spezia and the intense matchday atmosphere created by supporters.
Stadio Alberto Picco stands as one of the Italian Republic’s classic football venues—intimate, atmospheric, and deeply tied to local identity. It has witnessed the complete evolution of Spezia Calcio, from early 20th-century regional play to their breakthrough into Serie A in 2020.
Despite its modest size, the stadium maintains a strong cultural and sporting relevance, symbolizing the resilience and ambition of football in La Spezia.

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.
