Bringing Greenery to the Gridiron: Planters for Mercedes‑Benz Stadium (Atlanta Falcons)
When it comes to enhancing major sports and entertainment venues, greenery isn’t just décor—it’s a strategic design tool. At Mercedes‑Benz Stadium in Atlanta, home of the NFL’s Atlanta Falcons, UPScapers partnered with Czarnowski Display Service to introduce premium planters that add warmth, visual texture, and brand‑forward design to one of the country’s most high‑energy environments. This commercial installation demonstrates how thoughtfully placed greenery can elevate fan experiences, enhance sponsor activations, and bring a welcoming, biophilic touch to high‑traffic spaces.Why Greenery Matters in High‑Traffic Stadium Environments
For stadium operators and experiential agencies, greenery must be more than attractive—it needs to deliver consistent performance in extreme conditions. In sports venues, foot traffic is intense, lighting varies dramatically, and spaces are constantly reconfigured for games, concerts, and private events. Faux greenery provides the perfect combination of:- Instant visual impact
- High durability
- Zero‑maintenance operation
- Brand‑friendly design flexibility
In venues where maintenance crews can’t water or replace plants daily, engineered greenery becomes the smartest, most reliable solution.
The Challenge Behind the Beauty
Mercedes‑Benz Stadium and Czarnowski Display Service needed a greenery solution that would:- Enhance fan‑facing spaces like concourses, clubs, VIP zones, and sponsor activations
- Create premium, intentional design moments in an otherwise industrial architectural environment
- Withstand heavy crowd movement, variable lighting, and rapid reconfiguration
- Eliminate the maintenance burden of live plants, which require daily care to survive indoors
- Support the Falcons brand and experiential buildouts
In short, they required a stadium‑grade, professional‑looking greenery solution that could survive the demands of a major sports venue.
The Solution: Commercial Planters Designed for Stadium Use
UPScapers delivered a coordinated collection of premium planters chosen specifically for Mercedes‑Benz Stadium’s commercial environment.A Unified Planter Design Language
- Multiple planters were specified to create visual cohesion across various stadium zones.
- Finishes were selected to complement both Falcons branding and Czarnowski’s experiential design elements.
- The planters were chosen for durability, stability, and the ability to hold up in high‑traffic public environments.
Commercial‑Grade Faux Greenery
- High‑realism artificial greenery provides lush, consistent color and density—no irrigation, no dead plants, no replacements.
- The greenery softens steel, concrete, and LED‑heavy spaces, creating more human‑centered, welcoming environments.
- Biophilic design elements help fans feel grounded in an otherwise high‑energy arena.
Implementation
The installation was strategically coordinated around the stadium’s demanding schedule. Key implementation priorities included:- Seamless integration with Czarnowski’s experiential displays
- Alignment with operations, security, and crowd‑flow requirements
- Delivery and placement timed to avoid interfering with games and events
The result: a smooth rollout and a visually cohesive addition to one of the most sophisticated stadium environments in the country.
