What fits in Founder’s Ballroom + Pre Function Space
With a 3.1 m ceiling, a flown wall of Absen A2 Pro (2.97 mm) runs 49 tiles wide by 2 high (98 tiles, 24.5 x 1 m, 8232 x 336 px) once you keep 1.5 m of trim under the bottom edge. That wall weighs about 980 kg and draws up to 18.1 kW (87 A at 208 V). Floor space after a 12 x 7 m stage seats roughly 1,962 theater, 802 banquet, or 552 classroom. The previz lets you move the wall, change the tile, and check sightlines from the back row.

| 9thPanel DW1.9 S Pro | 1.875 mm | 41 x 3 = 123 | 24.6 x 1 m | 13120 x 540 | 590 kg / 1,302 lb | 31.2 kW, 150 A @ 208 V |
| Absen A2 Pro | 2.97 mm | 49 x 2 = 98 | 24.5 x 1 m | 8232 x 336 | 980 kg / 2,161 lb | 18.1 kW, 87 A @ 208 V |
| Absen A3 Pro | 3.9 mm | 49 x 2 = 98 | 24.5 x 1 m | 6272 x 256 | 931 kg / 2,052 lb | 15.7 kW, 75 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. 10 of the 20 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.
