Project Overview

At UBS Arena, home of the New York Islanders, retail presentation plays an essential role in connecting fans with the team’s vibrant identity. For the Islanders Team Store, lighting takes center stage in bringing that energy to life.

Belfer MQ2502 Marquee Lighting was chosen to illuminate window displays and highlight merchandise. The modular 2×2 marquee units deliver consistent brightness, adding depth, visibility, and sophistication to the storefront while capturing the excitement of the arena environment.

The result is an engaging retail front that draws visitors in—combining architectural lighting precision with interior branding impact.

Lighting Design Highlights

• Product: MQ2502 2×2 Medium Base Marquee Lighting
• Installation: Mounted within window frames and display recesses to accentuate merchandise and signage
• Effect: Even, radiant illumination that enhances the texture of apparel, memorabilia, and glass surfaces
• Design Intent: Create a premium retail experience aligned with the Islander’s team identity and UBS Arena’s architectural design

The MQ2502’s durability and flexible configuration make it ideal for arena shops, showrooms, and feature façades—maintaining performance under high ambient light conditions.

Lighting Impact

Through carefully calibrated lighting, the MQ2502 system transforms ordinary displays into eye-catching focal points visible from the arena concourse.
The marquee glow evokes a sense of prestige and excitement, echoing the energy of game nights while ensuring merchandise stands out with clarity and visual appeal.
