Forum JK is 26 x 26 m (85 x 85 ft), 676 m² (7,276 sq ft), with a 3.7 m (12 ft) ceiling.

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 3.7 m ceiling with 1.5 m trim and 0.3 m clearance you get 3 rows of 500 mm tile flown, which is tight; ground-stack or go lower on trim. Along the 26 m wall a Absen PL2.5 Plus V2 wall runs 41 x 3 (8200 x 600 px, 959 kg, 19.7 kW).

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, Forum JK holds about 1,315 theater seats, 538 banquet seats at rounds of 10, or 370 classroom seats. Back row in theater is roughly 19 m from the downstage edge; the previz checks whether the bottom of the wall clears the heads in front.
