Plan view

Shape approximate: the venue publishes area only, so this room is drawn as a square of equal area.

LED wall that fits

Under a 3.1 m ceiling with 1.5 m trim and 0.3 m clearance you get 2 rows of 500 mm tile flown, which is tight; ground-stack or go lower on trim. Along the 80 m wall a Absen PL2.5 Plus V2 wall runs 128 x 2 (25600 x 400 px, 1,997 kg, 41 kW).

Panel	Pitch	Wall (cols x rows)	Size	Resolution	Weight	Power (max)
Absen KLCOB 0.78	0.78 mm	106 x 3 = 318	63.6 x 1 m	81408 x 1296	1,431 kg / 3,155 lb	28.1 kW, 135 A @ 208 V
Absen PL2.5 Plus V2	2.5 mm	128 x 2 = 256	64 x 1 m	25600 x 400	1,997 kg / 4,402 lb	41 kW, 197 A @ 208 V
Absen PL3.9 Plus V2	3.9 mm	128 x 2 = 256	64 x 1 m	16384 x 256	1,997 kg / 4,402 lb	35.8 kW, 172 A @ 208 V

Wall sizing assumes 1.5 m trim to the bottom edge, 0.3 m clearance under the ceiling, and a wall no wider than 80% of the longest wall. Weight and power are tile totals from the panel spec sheet; add processing, rigging, and cable.

Seating estimate

After a 12 x 7 m stage, Goyder Pavilion holds about 14,035 theater seats, 5,741 banquet seats at rounds of 10, or 3,947 classroom seats. Back row in theater is roughly 73 m from the downstage edge; the previz checks whether the bottom of the wall clears the heads in front.
