We’re thrilled to announce that digiLED have been named the official LED out of home screen supplier of The O2, the world’s most popular live entertainment, leisure and retail destination.
The announcement follows multiple successful LED screen installations at The O2, including the new super-sized LED screen in the main entrance, which went live in early March. Measuring approximately 192sqm, it will be the largest standalone screen at the venue. Additionally, two other LED installations are set to follow, the larger of these being a high-resolution replacement for the existing outdoor cylinder screen.
digiLED has supplied multiple LED screens to The O2 over the years, most recently a brand-new screen installed in the Entertainment District. Further installations include the upgrade of the arena’s mid-tier LED banner system – delivering brighter, more energy-efficient and environmentally sustainable performance.

Pioneering Technology & Sustainability
digiLED has worked with The O2 for some time and built a strong relationship with the team there, and this is based on the continual development of new technology, short response times and being on the end of the phone whenever necessary.
The venue has been by far the best digiLED ZEUS® customer. In fact, they were instrumental in the first prototyping of digiLED ZEUS®, which cuts the screen’s power to zero when not in use. Their willingness to push the envelope has resulted in five new screens across the venue in the latest round of installations – each one equipped with digiLED ZEUS®.
Horrigan adds:
“Our experience in delivering award-winning technology for major global venues has been crucial in ensuring that the upgraded screens are of the highest standard. Beyond installation, we offer ongoing support, with a strong focus on aftercare and lifetime management. This partnership is built on trust, responsiveness, and a shared commitment to sustainability.”
digiLED ZEUS® also delivers added safety benefits, as explained by Tom Mudd, Head of Techincal at digiLED:
“In the unlikely event of a fire, one of the things that often happens is that energy still flows into the screen, which is super-dangerous for anyone attending such an incident. Uniquely, digiLED ZEUS® is equipped with a pyro-safety-switch that automatically stops the energy flowing into the device in such circumstances, making it much safer.”

As part of its ongoing mission to provide sustainable, high-performance LED solutions, digiLED aims to continue innovating in energy efficiency and environmental responsibility. The O2’s selection of digiLED as its preferred supplier reflects both the company’s commitment to the latest technology and its dedication to supporting clients in achieving their sustainability goals.
