Colossus at Bristol Speedway
The Colossus at Bristol Motor Speedway stands as the world's largest center-hung LED display.
Weighing almost 700 tons, it’s suspended by 117 tons of cabling, with the flexibility to be raised and lowered for various events. This enormous screen boasts four high-resolution displays, each measuring 30 by 63 feet, with a combined 54 million LEDs and 18 million pixels.
The structure hangs from a halo-shaped truss with an additional circular LED ring below, offering more than 10,500 square feet of high-res, immersive viewing area for spectators.
The installation required meticulous engineering and precision, utilizing Ron StageMaster shackle pin load cells to minimize headroom loss. Hats off to Barnhart Crane+Rigging for bringing this “Colossus” to life!
