Two giant Lighthouse LED video screens are relaying World Cup action throughout the tournament to fans outside the Korean Convention Centre in Seoul. Two 20sq.m, 20mm pixel pitch Lighthouse outdoor screens have been erected on behalf of Korean Telecomm Corporation in Seoul by AV rental company Hibino Korea, and are in use right through from the opening ceremony to the final itself.

KT Corporation is one of the World Cup’s sponsors and has secured rights to provide the screens, which are officially sanctioned by world football body FIFA. Seoul was the venue for the World Cup’s first match, when France faced Senegal. The group matches run up to June 14, with playoffs over the following three days. The semi-finals will be played on June 25 in Seoul and on June 26 in Saitama, and the final will be staged in Yokohama, Japan on June 30.

Jimmy Lo, at Lighthouse’s Hong Kong office, commented: "It’s a fantastic honour that Lighthouse screens have been chosen to show the tournament in Korea during the World Cup."
