What fits in River North Ballroom

With a 3 m ceiling, a flown wall of Absen A2 Pro (2.97 mm) runs 46 tiles wide by 2 high (92 tiles, 23 x 1 m, 7728 x 336 px) once you keep 1.5 m of trim under the bottom edge. That wall weighs about 920 kg and draws up to 17 kW (82 A at 208 V). Floor space after a 12 x 7 m stage seats roughly 451 theater, 184 banquet, or 126 classroom. The previz lets you move the wall, change the tile, and check sightlines from the back row.

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. 11 of the 11 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. River North Ballroom is a long room (3:1), so put the wall on the short end and expect the back row to be 29.3 m out; a 2.97 mm pitch holds up at that distance.

Data source
