CASE STUDY: Dubai Irish Football Club

Dubai Irish Football Club was first established in 1997. In 2022, the club moved up a division in the UAE league and with it, the need for a dedicated home ground. A partnership with Habtoor Polo Club was formed and its pitch transformed into four FIFA-grade football pitches. These have been lit by Thorn's Altis floodlight and controlled by the brand new UrbaSens Play control system. The result? Expertly lit fields of play that minimise disruption to the surrounding spaces.

EVENT: Light(s) on Tour visits Spain

In February, we took our Light(s) on Tour roadshow to not one, but two Spanish cities. Stopping first in Tarragona and then Bilbao, we were able to bring our lighting solutions directly to our customers. Colleagues in the region provided great overviews of the products and technologies available for indoor and outdoor applications and the control options designed to enhance sustainability efforts.
