It is the first question we are asked: “what size screen do I need?”. The good news is that there is a format for every venue, from 1 to 28 m²: the FLEX screen, built from panels from 1 to 12 m², and the 28 m² XL screen on a trailer. Here is how to decide.

The basic rule: distance and audience

The further your audience is from the screen, the bigger the screen needs to be. Err on the generous side: a screen that is too small is hard to see from the back, while a well-sized screen creates the “wow” effect. The size therefore depends on two things: the distance of the furthest viewer, and the number of people.

Our four reference formats

1 to 3 m² — Bar, counter, shop window

Ideal indoors or for a small space. The screen stays visible from every table without overwhelming the room. Perfect for showing a match in a bar or bringing a shop window to life.

4 to 9 m² — Terrace, brasserie, small hall

The format that catches the eye from the street and livens up a terrace. Big enough to be seen from a distance, compact enough to fit in.

9 to 12 m² — Hall, club, village hall

An immersive picture for parties, seminars and screenings. This is the “stage” format that gives an event its structure.

28 m² — Public square, fan zone, festival

The stadium effect. For large outdoor gatherings where several hundred people need to see clearly, even in broad daylight.

To picture these formats, visit our giant LED screen page — the FLEX configurator shows each format to scale.
