Lakeside Commons at Monona Terrace Community and Convention Center

Lakeside Commons is 18 x 18 m (59 x 59 ft), 324 m² (3,488 sq ft), with a 3.4 m (11 ft) ceiling.

Plan view

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

LED wall that fits

Under a 3.4 m ceiling with 1.5 m trim and 0.3 m clearance you get 3 rows of 500 mm tile flown, which is tight; ground-stack or go lower on trim. Along the 18 m wall a Absen A2 Pro wall runs 28 x 3 (4704 x 504 px, 840 kg, 15.5 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, Lakeside Commons holds about 533 theater seats, 218 banquet seats at rounds of 10, or 150 classroom seats. Back row in theater is roughly 11 m from the downstage edge; the previz checks whether the bottom of the wall clears the heads in front.
