The Fortress at Full Sail University

Full Sail University in Winter Park is proud to announce its 11,200-square foot state-of-the-art esports arena, known as The Fortress, has been nominated in the category of “Outstanding Venue” by the 2019 SportTechie Awards.

The Fortress at Full Sail University was unveiled in May 2019, and to date is the largest collegiate esports arena on any college or university campus in the United States.

The Fortress combines the latest technology with versatility – allowing for 100 esports athletes to play simultaneously while spectators view the action live.

Some of the unique features of The Fortress include: 10 million pixels of LED wall to support visuals/graphics, live-stream capabilities, dynamic sound and lighting solutions, a 360-video rig, and a giant, high-resolution LED screen to ensure every seat in the house has a clear view of the action.

Winners will be announced via the SportTechie website on Tuesday, December 31, and the impact of each nominee will be featured at SportTechie’s annual “State of the Industry” conference at Brooklyn’s Barclay Center on March 26-27.

Congrats to The Fortress at Full Sail!
