LED wall that fits
Under a 16.9 m ceiling with 1.5 m trim and 0.3 m clearance you get 30 rows of 500 mm tile flown. Along the 74.6 m wall a Absen PL2.5 Plus V2 wall runs 119 x 30 (23800 x 6000 px, 27,846 kg, 571.2 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.
