Market Trends

Wi-Fi 6E at Scale and Private 5G Pilots
Outdoor 6 GHz is now live in major stadiums, with Notre Dame Stadium's deployment proving high throughput and extended coverage. Private 5G pilots are running in parallel to ensure blanket coverage and low-latency performance for operational and fan-facing applications.

Shifting Traffic Balance Between Wi-Fi and Cellular
Some events are seeing higher cellular traffic than Wi-Fi. At Super Bowl LIX in 2025, cellular networks carried 67.1 TB versus 17.2 TB on stadium Wi-Fi, compared to a Wi-Fi record of 34.8 TB in 2024. Venues must plan for hybrid peaks across both technologies.

Europe Leading Growth
Europe is expected to lead short-term growth due to investments linked to major events and sustainability mandates. Fastest-growing segments include video surveillance, energy management, digital content, and crowd analytics.

AI-Native Building Operations
Platforms like OpenBlue show measurable returns, with energy savings, maintenance reduction, and rapid ROI. These benefits are influencing procurement for multi-venue operators aiming to meet ESG goals and improve fan experience.

Integrated Security and Fan Services
Security systems are merging with fan-facing mobile applications, linking mobile entry, loyalty programs, and access control into unified platforms. AI and analytics are now standard components in new stadium security plans.

Immersive Data Experiences
Venues are turning data into a destination feature. Installations like NTT DATA Wall and Bernabéu's AI-powered backbone enable interactive storytelling, increasing dwell time and fan engagement.

Adoption of Wi-Fi 7
Wi-Fi 7 is entering the market at prices lower than comparable Wi-Fi 6E models. This cost advantage, combined with multi-link operation and reduced latency, is expected to accelerate adoption, especially in high-density stadium environments.
