What fits in Ground Floor Foyer
With a 5.9 m ceiling, a flown wall of Absen A2 Pro (2.97 mm) runs 118 tiles wide by 8 high (944 tiles, 59 x 4 m, 19824 x 1344 px) once you keep 1.5 m of trim under the bottom edge. That wall weighs about 9,440 kg and draws up to 174.6 kW (840 A at 208 V). Floor space after a 12 x 7 m stage seats roughly 4,766 theater, 1,949 banquet, or 1,340 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) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 9thPanel DW1.9 S Pro | 1.875 mm | 99 x 12 = 1188 | 59.4 x 4.1 m | 31680 x 2160 | 5,702 kg / 12,572 lb | 301.8 kW, 1451 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. 11 of the 18 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. Ground Floor Foyer is a long room (2.5:1), so put the wall on the short end and expect the back row to be 74.3 m out; a 2.97 mm pitch holds up at that distance.
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.
