Field house and concourse displays built for big crowds
Field houses and concourses move hundreds of people in a few minutes before kickoff, then empty out. Displays here need to work for a quick glance in a crowd and for the family that stops to explore after the game.

Why it matters
Concourse walls are long, busy and underused
Most concourses have a concession stand, a few banners and long stretches of bare block wall. Crowds pass quickly, so small plaques go unread. Displays sized and placed for traffic can share history and messages with people who would otherwise walk right by.

How it works with Hardware
Field House and Concourse Display, step by step.
Three steps
Map the crowd flow
Tell us where fans enter, queue and gather. Rocket compares wall-mounted, kiosk and larger-format options and can prepare a free installation mockup of the concourse.
Check power and network at each spot
Facilities confirms wall construction, a power outlet and a network connection at each location. Long concourses need an early look at where cabling can run.
Launch and schedule game days
Connect the displays and launch. Staff schedule game-day content ahead of time and manage each location from one dashboard.
Setups vary by school; your demo confirms what yours will use.

Field House and Concourse Display tips
Use bigger screens for passing crowds
Anything people read while walking needs to be larger and simpler. Save smaller touchscreens for quieter corners where people stop.
Keep touch areas away from lines
Place interactive screens where browsing does not block the concession line or a doorway.
Check exposure near doors
Concourse doors let in cold, heat and rain. Ask facilities to review each location for exposure before choosing a spot.
Schedule content by sport
Set up football, soccer and track content in advance so the right message shows on the right night without anyone changing it by hand.
