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 12.5 m ceiling with 1.5 m trim and 0.3 m clearance you get 21 rows of 500 mm tile flown. Along the 46.5 m wall a Absen A2 Pro wall runs 74 x 21 (12432 x 3528 px, 15,540 kg, 287.5 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, Main Arena holds about 4,618 theater seats, 1,889 banquet seats at rounds of 10, or 1,298 classroom seats. Back row in theater is roughly 39.5 m from the downstage edge; the previz checks whether the bottom of the wall clears the heads in front.
