Plan view

LED wall that fits

Under a 4 m ceiling with 1.5 m trim and 0.3 m clearance you get 4 rows of 500 mm tile flown. Along the 18 m wall a Absen A2 Pro wall runs 28 x 4 (4704 x 672 px, 1,120 kg, 20.7 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, Room 159AB holds about 141 theater seats, 57 banquet seats at rounds of 10, or 39 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.
