Dresden's Heinz-Steyer-Stadion to Finally Receive Long-Delayed LED Scoreboard
The installation, costing €250,000, is set to be completed by June 2025 after its omission during the stadium's €58 million renovation.
- The Heinz-Steyer-Stadion in Dresden, reopened in August 2024 after a €58 million renovation, is addressing a major oversight with plans to install an LED scoreboard.
- The scoreboard, estimated to cost €250,000, is expected to be operational by June 2025, in time for the Goldenes Oval athletics event on June 1.
- The scoreboard will be mounted on the Nordtribüne along Rudolf-Harbig-Allee, with the site having passed necessary structural tests.
- The omission of the scoreboard was one of 1,800 construction defects identified in the stadium, ranging from minor issues to larger problems like insufficient parking and restroom facilities.
- A separate project will see the return of the stadium's World Record Plaque, damaged in 2022, to a new location near the Heinz-Steyer memorial by the end of March.
