Shape approximate: the venue publishes area only, so this room is drawn as a square of equal area.

LED wall that fits

Under a 4.8 m ceiling with 1.5 m trim and 0.3 m clearance you get 5 rows of 500 mm tile flown. Along the 12.8 m wall a Absen PL2.5 Plus V2 wall runs 20 x 5 (4000 x 1000 px, 780 kg, 16 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, 521 holds about 177 theater seats, 72 banquet seats at rounds of 10, or 49 classroom seats. Back row in theater is roughly 5.8 m from the downstage edge; the previz checks whether the bottom of the wall clears the heads in front.
