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 7.4 m ceiling with 1.5 m trim and 0.3 m clearance you get 11 rows of 500 mm tile flown. Along the 64.9 m wall a Absen A2 Pro wall runs 103 x 11 (17304 x 1848 px, 11,330 kg, 209.6 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, 517 holds about 9,173 theater seats, 3,752 banquet seats at rounds of 10, or 2,580 classroom seats. Back row in theater is roughly 57.9 m from the downstage edge; the previz checks whether the bottom of the wall clears the heads in front.
