LED wall that fits
Under a 3.1 m ceiling with 1.5 m trim and 0.3 m clearance you get 2 rows of 500 mm tile flown, which is tight; ground-stack or go lower on trim. Along the 42.4 m wall a Absen A2 Pro wall runs 67 x 2 (11256 x 336 px, 1,340 kg, 24.8 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, Pad 1 holds about 3,808 theater seats, 1,557 banquet seats at rounds of 10, or 1,071 classroom seats. Back row in theater is roughly 35.4 m from the downstage edge; the previz checks whether the bottom of the wall clears the heads in front.
