Plan view

LED wall that fits

Under a 8.7 m ceiling with 1.5 m trim and 0.3 m clearance you get 13 rows of 500 mm tile flown. Along the 59.4 m wall a Absen A2 Pro wall runs 95 x 13 (15960 x 2184 px, 12,350 kg, 228.5 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, Grand Ballroom holds about 5,449 theater seats, 2,229 banquet seats at rounds of 10, or 1,532 classroom seats. Back row in theater is roughly 52.4 m from the downstage edge; the previz checks whether the bottom of the wall clears the heads in front.
