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 31.5 m wall a Absen PL2.5 Plus V2 wall runs 50 x 2 (10000 x 400 px, 780 kg, 16 kW).
| Panel | Pitch | Wall (cols x rows) | Size | Resolution | Weight | Power (max) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Absen KLCOB 0.78 | 0.78 mm | 42 x 3 = 126 | 25.2 x 1 m | 32256 x 1296 | 567 kg / 1,250 lb | 11.1 kW, 54 A @ 208 V |
| Absen PL2.5 Plus V2 | 2.5 mm | 50 x 2 = 100 | 25 x 1 m | 10000 x 400 | 780 kg / 1,720 lb | 16 kW, 77 A @ 208 V |
| Absen PL3.9 Plus V2 | 3.9 mm | 50 x 2 = 100 | 25 x 1 m | 6400 x 256 | 780 kg / 1,720 lb | 14 kW, 67 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, Arena/Pavilion holds about 2,018 theater seats, 825 banquet seats at rounds of 10, or 567 classroom seats. Back row in theater is roughly 24.5 m from the downstage edge; the previz checks whether the bottom of the wall clears the heads in front.
