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 40.6 m wall a Absen PL2.5 Plus V2 wall runs 64 x 2 (12800 x 400 px, 998 kg, 20.5 kW).
| Panel | Pitch | Wall (cols x rows) | Size | Resolution | Weight | Power (max) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Absen KLCOB 0.78 | 0.78 mm | 54 x 3 = 162 | 32.4 x 1 m | 41472 x 1296 | 729 kg / 1,607 lb | 14.3 kW, 69 A @ 208 V |
| Absen PL2.5 Plus V2 | 2.5 mm | 64 x 2 = 128 | 32 x 1 m | 12800 x 400 | 998 kg / 2,201 lb | 20.5 kW, 98 A @ 208 V |
| Absen PL3.9 Plus V2 | 3.9 mm | 64 x 2 = 128 | 32 x 1 m | 8192 x 256 | 998 kg / 2,201 lb | 17.9 kW, 86 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, Foyer holds about 3,476 theater seats, 1,422 banquet seats at rounds of 10, or 977 classroom seats. Back row in theater is roughly 33.6 m from the downstage edge; the previz checks whether the bottom of the wall clears the heads in front.
