During the Summer of 2026, just days before the opening of the new Denver Summit FC stadium in Centennial, Colorado, we received a panic call.
“We open this Saturday, but we do not have graphics for the exterior of the stadium!”
Fineline Graphics sprung into action, with a pair of site visits with stadium designers (CAA Icon), the construction team, and Summit marketing team members to come up with solutions.
A full mesh wrap was the vision, but there were problems.
- Lights, Security Cameras, Conduit, and Speaker Stands were bolted to the exterior face, making the exterior option full of obstacles.
- Player images – Should a player be added or traded, the entire wrap is junk and a costly replacement for the team.
Solutions: Fineline Graphics recommended a pennant banner approach. Avoid the obstacles AND easy removal and replacement of players and the roster continues to change during a season. And a very interesting auction item for the team at the end of each year!
Within hours, we were printing nearly 75 banners – 10 feet tall – for installation at the stadium. And not only did Fineline get these completed and delivered on time, an 11th hour/Friday request for a field wrap banner was requested and delivered prior to the noon kickoff on Saturday for their first match in their new home.
Our team was thrilled to be able to help, AND – as anticipated – provide multiple replacement player banners during the remainder of the season as future Summit Stars were added to the team roster.
Go Summit!
