What is the Type of Lights Will You Find in a Convention Center?

Convention centers typically use high bay lights. Ceiling heights are generally high, so the lights used are very powerful. LED lighting is a great alternative to metal halide and fluorescent lighting, providing high-quality, consistent lighting that requires little if any maintenance.

Many of our fixtures are wattage adjustable and color adjustable. So you have the ultimate flexibility after you purchase.

What’s Better for a Convention Center - LED Linear or UFO High Bays?

This is a matter of choice. But one thing UFO lights do better than linear high bays is to perform better at higher mounting heights. That’s because we can install optics on UFO fixtures to narrow down the beam. So that the light can get down to the exhibition floor.

The best way to decide about this is to create a lighting plan based on your needs. We can model both UFO and linear styles but the report can help us discover the best options for you.

LED Lights for Convention Centers FAQs

Is it Better to Use a Wide Beam Angle or a Narrow Beam Angle Optic?

Wide beam angles would work better, but it depends on the height of the ceiling. Achieving the right foot candles, and balanced light is easier with wide beam angles. There is a caveat here. If the ceilings are high, you will need to narrow the beams down a bit more so the lights direct to the floor.

Rather than worry about what beam angle to choose, we recommend you create a lighting plan first. The lighting plan software will define the best beam angle for you so you won’t have to guess.

What is the Best Color Temperature to Use in a Convention Center?

We would recommend either 4000K or 5000K. 5000K is the most popular light option. We also off color changing High Bays that allow you to select at the time of installation the color temperature you want

What are the Best Light Levels For a Convention Center?

For the general hall, we would recommend at least 30 to 50-foot candles. But there are many other locations in a convention center. Like meeting rooms (30-foot candles), corridors, and hallways. The best choice depends on the use of the space.

What's the Best Way to Achieve Uniform Light Coverage?

This is easy to do through a lighting plan. A lighting plan will show you two important calculations. Light levels (foot candles) and how well-balanced the light is (average/min ratio).

What's a Good Way to Reduce Glare with UFO Lights?

Consider using domes to block the light from the side view. We do have acrylic dome options for many of our high bay fixtures. We also offer frosted lenses which reduce glare

Are Your LED Fixtures Compatible with Lighting Controls?

If your control systems work with a 0-10V or 1-10V dimming system, then yes, they are. Many of our lights work with or have built-in motion sensors.

Do Your Fixtures Come with Safety Cords?

Yes, we can provide safety cords for your installation.

If We Install New LED Lights in Between Events Over Multiple Weeks, Will the Lighting Look Off?

It depends entirely on your existing lighting. If it is old and tired with worn-out bulbs, the LED lights will look a lot brighter.

Why Are LED Lights Ideal for Convention Centers?

LED lights offer energy efficiency, long lifespan, and provide high quality, reliable lighting

Can LED Lights Be Dimmed for Different Events in a Convention Center?

Yes, many LED fixtures come with dimmable options. This allows you to adjust the lighting for various event needs.

How Long Do LED Lights Last in Convention Centers?

LED lights can last up to 50,000 hours or more. This means there will be no bulbs or ballasts to replace for many years.

Are LED Lights Suitable for Exhibit Halls and Large Spaces?
