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 38.5 m wall a Absen PL2.5 Plus V2 wall runs 61 x 2 (12200 x 400 px, 952 kg, 19.5 kW).
| Panel | Pitch | Wall (cols x rows) | Size | Resolution | Weight | Power (max) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Absen KLCOB 0.78 | 0.78 mm | 51 x 3 = 153 | 30.6 x 1 m | 39168 x 1296 | 689 kg / 1,518 lb | 13.5 kW, 65 A @ 208 V |
| Absen PL2.5 Plus V2 | 2.5 mm | 61 x 2 = 122 | 30.5 x 1 m | 12200 x 400 | 952 kg / 2,098 lb | 19.5 kW, 94 A @ 208 V |
| Absen PL3.9 Plus V2 | 3.9 mm | 61 x 2 = 122 | 30.5 x 1 m | 7808 x 256 | 952 kg / 2,098 lb | 17.1 kW, 82 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, Fair south foyer holds about 3,107 theater seats, 1,271 banquet seats at rounds of 10, or 873 classroom seats. Back row in theater is roughly 31.5 m from the downstage edge; the previz checks whether the bottom of the wall clears the heads in front.
