What fits in Comesa Grounds
With a 3.1 m ceiling, a flown wall of Absen PL2.5 Plus V2 (2.5 mm) runs 138 tiles wide by 2 high (276 tiles, 69 x 1 m, 27600 x 400 px) once you keep 1.5 m of trim under the bottom edge. That wall weighs about 2,153 kg and draws up to 44.2 kW (212 A at 208 V). Floor space after a 12 x 7 m stage seats roughly 16,479 theater, 6,741 banquet, or 4,634 classroom. The previz lets you move the wall, change the tile, and check sightlines from the back row.
| Panel | Pitch | Wall (cols x rows) | Size | Resolution | Weight | Power (max) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Absen KLCOB 0.78 | 0.78 mm | 115 x 3 = 345 | 69 x 1 m | 88320 x 1296 | 1,553 kg / 3,423 lb | 30.5 kW, 147 A @ 208 V |
| Absen PL2.5 Plus V2 | 2.5 mm | 138 x 2 = 276 | 69 x 1 m | 27600 x 400 | 2,153 kg / 4,746 lb | 44.2 kW, 212 A @ 208 V |
| Absen PL3.9 Plus V2 | 3.9 mm | 138 x 2 = 276 | 69 x 1 m | 17664 x 256 | 2,153 kg / 4,746 lb | 38.6 kW, 186 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.
Planning notes
No rigging point data is published for this venue yet; plan on ground-supported LED or ask the venue for its rigging plot. 9 of the 9 rooms sit under 3.5 m, which rules out flown LED there and limits ground-stacked walls to about 6 rows of 500 mm tile.
Data source
Published dimensions. Dimensions from the venue's published meeting-space specifications (source). Rooms drawn as boxes use published length x width; square rooms were derived from published area only, so treat their shape as approximate. Venue managers: send a floor plan to upgrade your listing to production-ready.
