According to "2026 Global LED Video Wall Market Outlook and Price Cost Analysis", looking ahead to 2026, the global LED video wall market scale is forecasted to reach USD 8.105 billion. This growth will be driven by sports events (e.g., the 2026 World Baseball Classic and the 2026 FIFA World Cup) and other application segments such as all-in-one LED displays and cinema LED displays.Markets of corporation and education, virtual production, as well as home theaters and cinemas have been growing steadily thanks to the demand for high resolution and HDR.
As brands and panel manufacturers continue to optimize Micro LED TV technology and costs, Micro LED TV shipments are expected to stabilize in growth and begin to penetrate the home theater, exhibition, conference, and education space markets. At the same time, technological innovations can be seen moving towards large-scale LTPS development in order to decrease reliance on side wiring. Application innovations can also forecast Micro LED transparent displays being used in retail department stores, art spaces, and the hospitality industry, being used as supplemental product displays and introductions. Micro LED TVs and Micro LED transparent displays would be prospective throughout 2026.
The Mini LED video wall market scale is expected to increase by 25% in 2025. Among these products, P1.2 displays are anticipated to be the mainstream one, comprising >50% of the total market. In the long term, with Mini LED technology and production development stabilizing, the market scale of Mini LED video walls has a chance of reaching USD 2.194 billion by 2029, with a projected CAGR of 28% from 2024 to 2029.
With rising international market demand for all-in-one LED displays, the global all-in-one LED display shipment is projected to reach 12,850 sets in 2025. Based on TrendForce's analysis, the top five suppliers of all-in-one LED displays in 2024, in order, were CVTE, Unilumin, Samsung, Leyard, and Absen.
Starting in 2025, the specifications of mainstream products will change back to a 16:9 aspect ratio, with the 135-inch 2K P1.5 LED all-in-one display becoming the primary offering. This new generation of all-in-one displays will feature a foldable design for easier transportation, thus helping businesses reduce their total cost of ownership. According to TrendForce, COB technology can enhance color uniformity, contrast, and viewing angles. These benefits encourage suppliers including Samsung, Unilumin, Absen, ViewSonic, Philips, and CVTE to adopt the technology. TrendForce's analysis indicates that the market share of COB technology will remain between 25-30% from 2024 to 2025. Furthermore, starting in 2025, LED display suppliers are going to actively promote 162-163 inch 4K P0.9 all-in-one LED displays for high-end commercial applications and home theaters.
In 2024, the Chinese government introduced policies to promote cinema LED displays. As a result, the Chinese cinema LED display market continues to grow throughout 2025, and drives global new installations to potentially increase by 75%. Cinema LED displays are typically available in aspect ratios such as 1.85:1 (widescreen standard in the US), 1.82:1, 1.90:1, 1.96:1, and 2.39:1 (common widescreen), with lengths usually ranging from 4-6m, 10m, 14m, 16m, to 20m. Moving into 2025, the share of 16m and 20m products has risen among new installations of cinema LED displays.
Market demand for virtual production LED displays in Europe and the US has been declining in 2025 due to reduced entertainment spending by the public, thus leading to reduced investment in the film and television industry. In China, demand for virtual production LED displays has also been lower than expected on account of diminished social investment and downgraded consumption. Despite market demand for virtual production in Thailand, Singapore, Japan, and Australia, limited funding will favor smaller virtual production studios. In addition, suppliers, including Unilumin Group, Samsung, LG, Sony, BOE, and AOTO, have started proposing virtual production solutions to correspond to their clients' needs.
With budget concerns, mainstream specifications for general background displays are typically >P2.1, such as P2.3, P2.6, and P2.8. However, premium film and television production demands higher brightness and display quality. For close-up shots, P1.2-P1.6 Mini LED video walls are used. The specifications for floor displays are mostly P2-P4, with the adoption of Mini LED video walls for better immersive experiences, while ceiling displays typically range from P3.9 to P6, emphasizing high brightness.
According to TrendForce, as LED video wall prices decline, the penetration rate of LED rental displays continues to rise. Various live events and sports games are increasingly adopting LED video wall solutions to create immersive and visually striking on-site experiences. In the long term, as the penetration rate of LED rental displays continues to rise, the market is expected to reach USD 2.244 billion by 2029, with a CAGR of 8% from 2024 to 2029. The premium LED rental display features such as high brightness, high refresh rates, high resolutions, high energy efficiency, high product stability, lightweight, and ease of installation and disassembly.
According to TrendForce's study, LED outdoor displays applied to advertising / billboards, transportation / VMS, as well as sports / education would see a steady growth throughout 2026. LED outdoor fine pitch display products are utilized by street furniture and bus shelter displays. In accordance with the need of displays, LED outdoor fine pitch displays have also started adopting 4-in-1 Mini LED, 1010 LED (Flip Chip), Mini LED (COB), and MiP. Mini LED (COB) excels in high-pixel density and remarkable display effects, which explains how LED video wall manufacturers have been rather active in utilizing the said technology for the LED outdoor fine pitch display market.
