Outdoor LED Screen Price: A Comprehensive Guide

Mr. LiuJuly 13, 2025

Outdoor LED screens are ideal for advertising, events, sports arenas, and public displays, offering high brightness, weather resistance, and large viewing distances. The price of an outdoor LED Display screen depends on factors like pixel pitch, screen size, resolution, and durability.

This guide provides an overview of pricing, factors affecting costs, and additional considerations for outdoor LED screens.

Outdoor LED Screen Prices

Factors That Influence Outdoor LED Screen Prices

1. Pixel Pitch (Resolution)

Pixel pitch determines the resolution and clarity of the screen. Smaller pixel pitch = higher resolution = higher cost.

  • P3–P6: Standard for outdoor screens where viewers are closer (e.g., stadiums, small billboards).
  • P6–P10: Common for large billboards where viewers are far away.
  • P10 and above: Suitable for very large displays like highway billboards.

2. Screen Size

Larger screens require more LED modules, increasing the cost.

  • Small Screens (2m x 2m): Suitable for small outdoor spaces like storefronts.
  • Medium Screens (5m x 3m): Ideal for advertising or event displays.
  • Large Screens (10m x 5m or more): Common for stadiums and large-scale billboards.

3. Brightness

Outdoor screens must have high brightness levels (5,000–10,000 nits) to remain visible under direct sunlight. Higher brightness levels increase the cost.

4. Weather Resistance (IP Rating)

Outdoor screens must be built to withstand rain, dust, and temperature fluctuations. IP ratings like IP65 (front) and IP54 (back) indicate protection levels. Higher durability typically increases the price.

5. Type of LED Screen

  • Fixed Screens: Permanent installations for billboards or stadiums.
  • Rental Screens: Portable and modular for temporary events like concerts or outdoor exhibitions.

6. Control System

Advanced control systems for real-time updates, synchronization, or remote management add to the cost.

7. Brand and Manufacturing Location

  • Chinese manufacturers: Offer competitive pricing without compromising quality.
  • European or U.S. brands: Higher prices due to stricter standards and advanced technology.

Price Ranges for Outdoor LED Display Screens

Here’s a general breakdown of outdoor LED screen prices based on pixel pitch and size:

Pixel Pitch Screen Size Price Range (USD) Applications
P3–P4 2m x 2m (4 m²) $14,000–$24,000 Small outdoor signage, storefronts.
P5–P6 5m x 3m (15 m²) $50,000–$90,000 Medium-sized billboards, event screens.
P8–P10 10m x 5m (50 m²) $150,000–$300,000 Large billboards, stadium displays.
P10+ 20m x 10m (200 m²) $600,000+ Highway billboards, mega screens.

Software for controlling and updating the screen in real-time costs $500–$2,000, depending on its features.

3. Maintenance

Annual maintenance costs are typically 5–10% of the screen price, covering cleaning, repairs, and software updates.

4. Power Consumption

Outdoor screens consume more power due to high brightness levels.

  • Average Power Usage: ~500–800 watts/m².
  • Cost: Depends on screen size and hours of operation.

5. Transportation

Shipping costs vary depending on the size, weight, and distance to the installation site.

2. Weatherproof Design

  • IP65 Rating: Protects the front panel from water and dust.
  • IP54 Rating: Protects the back panel from environmental elements.

Outdoor screens typically have a 160°–178° viewing angle, ensuring clear visibility from different directions.

4. Long Lifespan

LED displays last 50,000–100,000 hours, making them a durable investment.

5. Energy Efficiency

Tips to Save Money on Outdoor LED Screens

  1. Choose the Right Pixel Pitch
    • Avoid overpaying for ultra-high resolution if your audience will view the screen from far away. For example:
      • Use P6+ for billboards.
      • Use P3–P4 for closer viewing distances.
  2. Buy from Trusted Manufacturers
    • Chinese brands like Absen or Unilumin offer competitive pricing without compromising quality.

    • Renting can save you money for short-term events or advertising campaigns.
  4. Invest in Energy-Efficient Screens
    • Opt for models with low power consumption to reduce long-term operational costs.
  5. Negotiate with Suppliers
    • Many manufacturers offer discounts for bulk orders or repeat customers.
